Wow, that was cool. Anyone that hasn't has to go. What a family event and an opportunity to teach your kids history and especially local history.

[Glueyish]

[mrmaxy45]

[oldhendy785]

@1944jhd..Where do you get that from?

[1944jhd]

They forgot to dress Davy Crockett in a woman's dress. That's what he was wearing when he was caught trying to escape. Santa Ana had him shot and burned. It doesn't mention if he had a purse and matching pumps!

[redslownight]

@1944jhd Im sorry, were you at the alamo? No? ok Keep your mouth shut then

[DavyCrockettFan1]

@1944jhd Where did you hear that ? In your head I think. David Crockett was taken prisoner at one of three places...the palisade, the church, or the long barracks.

[demeandr121]

@DavyCrockettFan1 Crockett was taken prisoner at the church and was executed the next morning.

[DavyCrockettFan1]

@demeandr121 I know he was taken prisoner, but where did you hear that he was executed the NEXT morning ?

[demeandr121]

@DavyCrockettFan1 It's called books.

[DavyCrockettFan1]

@demeandr121 The books say he was executed that day. Could you please name the book ?

[demeandr121]

@DavyCrockettFan1 Well it's the SS book I have. I go tp New Hyde Park Memorial. Where do you go and what grade?

[DavyCrockettFan1]

@demeandr121 I'm a senior in college.

[DavyCrockettFan1]

@1944jhd And not in women's clothes.

[dude853]

Ha, what the Nazis did make the Gis look like saints.

[chaloner]

If Mexicants still think Texas is still part of Mexico. Then Mexico should still be part of Spain :P

[joe24021991]

Thats a very good good point !!!! : O xD

[1944jhd]

@chaloner - STFU! You Racist piece of dog shit!

[Nefarioso]

The Texians colonists were invited to live in Texas and were given rights as Mexican citizens under the Mexican Constitution of 1824. When Santa Anna came to power in 1833 he destroyed the constitution and set himself up as dictator. Several Mexican provinces, including Zacatecas, rose up in revolt. When Santana crushed the rebels there, he allowed his troops 2 days of rape and pillage in which 2,000 civilians died. He then turned his attention on the other rebels in Texas. The rest is history.

sorry i accidently rated 1star:(\

great video

[SouthTexasGal830]

The Battle of the Alamo was over slavery. You may give me a thumbs down if you wish but look it up...it's true.

[SouthTexasGal830]

Unfortunately, they don't teach REAL US History in schools. The Battle of the Alamo was not about freedom. I am not belittling their 13 day struggle with it to be commended. I realize I may get a thumbs down for this but I think our entire country is brainwashed to think that our poop does not skink. We as a country do have a past which like many people is not necessarily a nice one past. But that past makes us what we are today.

[jermster17]

If they do a reenactment of the Alamo, why not do one at the Alamo Village in Brackettville, TX or the Alamo form the 2004 film.

[heelyman101]

Oh my gosh. Get over the fact that Texas is a part of the US what is wrong with you people?

[zweg2]

Well aren't you an uneducated fuck? You can't even spell right. Jesus Christ. Your opinion means nothing.

[akalelt]

just usa have right to integrity ? what about the Mexican integrity.

greased stupiuds gringos sheeps

[OlenkaWagner]

Akalelt, OK. Texas was a part of Mexico no of USA and USA were the invaders. And it was unfair. But what practical conclusions can be made for today. Do you want the territory back? (Pretty unrealistic). Do you want to forbid reenactments? (What's wrong with showing history, the things happened in the way they happened). My questions ARE NOT rhetorical.

[akalelt]

you know, Texas was a part of Mexico no of usa, therefor you are: texas invaders,new mexico invaders, arizona invaders,nevada invaders, colorado invaders, utha invaders,oregon and washington invaders,kansas invaders, oklahoma invaders.

your gobernament was (end is) corrupted

USA war VS: Mexico, Irak, corea, Viet nam, cuba, Espana,Afganistan, etc,etc. So long liv the american corruption.

[akalelt]

A GREAT CIRCUS. the gringos had rights to got independens just from the united satates, dont from Mexico. therefore that was a robberi. whay it was american soldiers (filibusteros) in texas. so it was an american sublevation, and intervention. YOU SHOULD TO THINK ABOUT.

[wakclips]

YOUR ENGLISH IS HORRIBLE!

That means NO BUENO!

Your Grammer is also Horrible and Below are a few of the words that YOU MISPELLED: independens, united satates, dont, robberi, whay, (filibusteros, sublevation, intervention

Get to work.

[akalelt]

are you proude? this is a monument to the robberi. when you will get to tell the tru ?

Los grigos son estupi... son como ovejas, vieron las elecciones? como en las campanas se vuelven locos con los candidatos, y creen al 100% lo que les cuentan, DEL mismo modo como les han contado la historia de texas, y los territorios robados, asi mismo lo repiten . ovejas mocosas que no le ponen un poco de logica al asunto, si lo pensaran logico, veria la sarta de mentiras que siempre les han contado.

[christainsolider04]

move it to the movie set

[FattestJack]

This makes me wanna move there and get the job of being Davy Crockett!

[Nefarioso]

Great stuff, Victoria. I was photographing over by the north wall, so never got to see what was happening at the same time, over by the palisade.
