The most boring landmark in San Antonio, the battle of the Alamo was a loss, yet we honor it? We LOST people, it was ordered to be destroyed by Gen. Sam Houston, yet we stood there to fight, it was shameful we thought that just because they are Mexicans that we could beat them 180 to 5000, that's not even david and goliath, that's stupidity, period. And the alamo never bought us time, the alamo was crushed, then the massacre at goliad, then we trapped them at San Jacinto and crushed the surrounded, ambushed Mexiacan army.
When I go to the Alamo I find it hard not to laugh at the pridefull Texans who think, the building is worth a damn.
