what caused it was that santa anna had a cannon that he believed could beat the texans. the texans took it and said come and take it. thats what caused the battle of gonzales. :)
the Battle of Gonzales on October 2, 1835. It was the first military engagement of the Texas Revolution. Texan settlers successfully defended a small cannon, known as the "Come and Take It" cannon, against the Mexican troops, who were attempting to seize it.
The conflict where Texans clashed with Mexican troops in 1835 is known as the Battle of Gonzales. This skirmish marked the beginning of the Texas Revolution, as Texian settlers resisted Mexican attempts to reclaim a cannon that had been given to them for defense against Native American attacks. The battle is famously associated with the phrase "Come and take it," symbolizing Texian defiance.
1) In both cases, loosely organized armed civilians stood up against a professional and numerically superior military force. 2) Both battles touched off revolutions which resulted in the successful breaking away from the mother countries (Texas from Mexico, and the Thirteen Colonies from Great Britain). 3) Both battles were about the right to bear arms. The British at Lexington and Concord were sent to confiscate muskets and gunpowder from the Colonists. At Gonzales, the Mexicans were sent to take back a Mexican Army cannon which had been given to Gonzales for its defense.
