Where the first shot was heard isn't as important as it happened. The beginning in earnest to become a sovereign nation independent of the King.

The march on Lexington and Concord for confiscation of rightfully owned guns was the last straw. This attempt at cowing the "rebels" showed the crown's actual stance, something the colonials could no longer stomach. The rebellion fired into full, all out war at this point. This was the true beginning of our fight for freedom from tyranny. The battle continues even today. Stand for your rights or you'll fall for anything.
