The Boston Massacre

    In this picture, it isn't very easy to see exactly what happened in the Boston Massacre.  To someone who hasen't heard of the Boston Massacre, it would just look like a group of British soldiers had lined up and attacked a group of unarmed American colonists.  If I just heard the name "Boston Massacre" I would think it was some kind of war or battle that took place in Boston where many people were killed, and the same with "The Bloody Massacre".  If I heard "The King Street Massacre", I might think that some crazy little man ran up and down King Street with a gun and shot and killed a whole bunch of innocent Sunday shoppers.
