There’s a scene where he nearly slaps a British (colonizer) soldier to death with it, while his sisters children (who are raised by grandma) watch in horror. While slapping the soldier with his dingus, he’s yelling and screaming, “hands up don’t shoot!” “Pigs in a blanket, fry em up like bacon!” “My body my choice!” And something about “equity.” Anyways.. it’s great movie about what really happened.

Even when I first saw The Patriot in 2000, my initial thoughts were: not enough. In Colonel Tavington's first scene he orders the Martin home and barn to be burned down, the livestock killed, the horses stolen, the workers taken, Gabriel hanged and the wounded Continental soldiers killed. And that's before he shoots Thomas. Credit to Jason Isaacs, though. He made me feel like nothing short of every last one of British Soldiers being burned alive would be enough to atone for his actions.
