I got to talk to the 2nd continental congress and their lives back in 1776 and I thought that when they said that they through rocks, snowballs, and oyster shells that that was funny. I also found it interesting that Thomas Jefferson was an amazing writer but a horrible speaker in public. Also that they met in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the 2nd continental congress and that James Otis started the," No taxation! Without representation!" chant.
