#GUNPOWDER PLOT

[pseudowho]

Remember, remember, the 5th of November,

Gunpowder, treason and plot.

I know of no reason,

Why the gunpowder treason,

Should ever be forgot.

For anyone who doesn't know, in the UK every year, we celebrate the anniversary of Guy Fawkes' failed attempt to assassinate the whole House of Lords by blowing up Parliament (i.e. Westminster/Big Ben).

I can hear the fireworks as we speak. There will be much 'burning the Guy' on the bonfires. Guy Fawkes died a grisly death at the hands of our aristocratic masters.

And yet, as in V For Vendetta...many in the country wonder why we celebrate the survival of the Lords.

REVOLUTION!

Love,

I so want the release date of Veilguard to be November 5th, solely to set my calendar under the line "Remember, Remember, the 5th of November."

Yearly reminder that in 1605, Catholics legally couldn’t purchase gunpowder.

Furthermore, gunpowder could only be bought from the Tower of London, and every time gunpowder was bought from there it would be kept in a record. Now the records for all the surrounding years can be traced, yet the records for 1605 are mysteriously absent.

I’m not saying the Gunpowder Plot was a Protestant conspiracy, but I’m not saying the Gunpowder Plot wasn’t a Protestant conspiracy.

A historic plaque marks Guy Fawkes's birthplace in York. According to legend he leapt off the scaffold and broke his neck before being drawn and quartered, thus escaping the grisly fate of his co-conspirators.
