You would have to hold a gun to my head first, and pull the trigger. You'd either have to shoot me, or the TV. -- Service to my country? Been there, Done that, and I've got my DD214 to prove it.

I can't resist being pedantic, because I think this is a conflation of the "Boston Massacre" on March 5, 1770, in which British soldiers fired on an angry mob, some of whom were throwing stones, and the Battle of Concord on April 19, 1775, which Longfellow immortalized as the shot heard round the world. To make things even more confusing, the "shot heard round the world" has become connected in popular culture with the "first shot" of the Revolution earlier on April 19 in Lexington; it's not known whether the first shot at Lexington was fired by a British soldier or an American militiaman. In Longfellow's poem, the shot is fired by the colonial side, "the embattled farmers," at the Concord bridge.
