@ProfDaveAndress Castor's claim was that an insurrection involves an elaborate plan to overthrow the government. Page 137 of Jeremy Popkin's "A New World Begins" says that women urged their husband to rush to the Bastille saying, "It's for King and country." — PolitiTweet.org

In 1789, the Parisian people had no plan what to do next when they seized the Bastille. So, by Castor's logic, it wasn't an insurrection. I guess the storming of the Bastille should be remembered as merely an expansion of prison visiting hours. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenatorZero On Page 137 of Jeremy Popkin's "A New World Begins," he cites the women of Paris saying that the fight at the Bastille was for "King and country." So, of course, Louis XVI wouldn't feel threatened by it. — PolitiTweet.org
