From Breitbart's Big Government:

Today, in 1765, the British Government began enforcing the Stamp Act, a tax on all legal documents and publications in the American colonies, enacted earlier in the year. Passage of the Act sparked widespread protests and gave birth to the slogan, “No Taxation Without Representation”, as well as the formal organization of the “Sons of Liberty.” It also moved Patrick Henry and the Virginia House of Burgesses (pictured above) to pass the “Virginia Resolves,” one of the first expressions of colonial disagreement with the distant Monarchy.

We leave to you, in the comments, to note the relevance of this anniversary to activities that may be planned today.

Thoughtful explanation of the Threeper concept is in order at the Big Government comments section.

Have at it.
