mar 5, 1770 - The Boston Massacre
Description:
Although British soldiers were ordered not to shoot, after being snowballed, having objects thrown at them and being called names, the soldiers shot anyways (as being pressed is quite hard to deal with) and killed 5 people. 3 were immediately killed, while 2 later died from wounds obtained from the shooting.
