Untitled and Rights of the Colonists (Unabridged‪)‬

In an untitled article in The Boston Gazette of February 27, 1769, Samuel Adams defends the right of the people of Boston to bear arms. He argues that citizens need to have a means of defending themselves and cites several instances of the military in the city having violated the rights of citizens. "Rights of the Colonists" is an essay of November 20, 1772 in which he defends the natural rights of the colonists.
