On this day in 1835, a group of Texians in Gonzales were ordered to surrender their cannon to Mexican authorities. Their reply was simple, Come and Take It. It has been a battle cry for Texans and other freedom fighters ever since. God bless Texas! https://t.co/k6kVPjHXd0

Happy San Jacinto Day! Decisive, monumental battles don’t often take place in quick bursts. But, 185 years ago, Texians overwhelmed Santa Anna and his forces in just 18 minutes. Securing independence for the Lone Star State. God bless Texas! https://t.co/aVO4luWH9L
185 yrs ago today the Alamo fell. But the fate of the men inside was decided earlier when Travis drew a line in the sand. He asked those that were willing to die in the mission’s defense to step across. All but one did. We honor them today. Remember the Alamo! God bless Texas! https://t.co/9Kx6sQGsy6
<U+201C>Come and Take It!<U+201D> In 1835, a group of Texians in Gonzales informed the Mexican army they would not freely give up their canon. It<U+2019>s that spirit of resolve & tenacity that has allowed Texas to thrive. God bless those men & women for their willingness to fight, & God bless Texas! https://t.co/z0zZBBZcCg
I absolutely love this picture that hangs in my Capitol office. It tells the story of what happened on this day in 1835. When the Mexican army demanded the Texians turn over their canon, they responded with the famous “Come and Take It”! God bless Texas! https://t.co/xLA4ijyRLo
185 yrs ago, William B. Travis put pen to paper & drafted a letter of historical significance. Travis sounded the alarm about the siege of the Mexican army. But also a statement of defiance & resolve. These words continue to inspire almost two centuries later. Victory or Death! https://t.co/bRIJOOisDD
Alright, alright, alright. Good message from the Minister of Culture. https://t.co/rV8gAQrMLO
