The modern-day concept of a "massacre" often reflects the same themes of violence against unarmed civilians that characterized the Boston Massacre of 1770, where British soldiers killed five colonists during a confrontation. Both events highlight the tension between authority and the populace, as well as the potential for state-sanctioned violence. In contemporary contexts, the term "massacre" is frequently used to describe mass shootings or attacks that evoke a similar outrage and demand for justice, drawing parallels to how the Boston Massacre galvanized public sentiment against British rule. The historical context serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggles for rights and protection against oppression.
