That image has been proven to be altered and taken out of context for years, unless of course the official GW historians are wrong. I would rather refer to decades of experts in the field on this one instead of a guy who can photoshop images and all the people that obviously never bothered to spend 5 minutes researching this.

"This quote is partially accurate as the beginning section is taken from Washington's First Annual Message to Congress on the State of the Union. However, the quote is then manipulated into a differing context and the remaining text is inaccurate."

Accurate version: Washington said:

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."

Washington "was a strong proponent of a robust national defense" and during his first annual address to Congress argued for lawmakers to take a role in promoting the domestic manufacture of weapons and ammunition to avoid the supply issues that the Continental Army faced during the Revolutionary War. This is according to mountvernon.org. the official historians of Washington's legacy.

Thanks for the correction.

I imagine this stuff is so common, like really really common now because people share it without doing any due diligence. This is why Facebook, Twitter etc. are under such scrutiny. Anyone can make an image, or type a quote we want to be true and it spreads like wildfire over millions of cellphones and computers with near zero accountability.
