Although a [[Catholic]] [[priest]], he disobeyed the many orders that the religious order had given him to desist on his war against the legitimate government. In September 1810 he conspired with a few "criollos" to overthrow the Spanish government in Mexico. His plans were discovered by the [[Spain|Spanish]] so he had to rush his plans, so he did not have enough time to prepare their revolution well. On [[September 16]], which is nowadays a holiday in [[Mexico]], he gathered the people of the village of [[Dolores]] at his church and ask them to start a revolt. He also gathered a mob to march towards [[Mexico City]].

In Guanajuato, his mob pillaged and raped women, even when Hidalgo had promised them not to do it. The mob didn't listen to him. He defeated the Spanish another time at [[Monte de las Cruces]] close to Mexico City, but he decided not to attack the capital. Instead he returned to [[Guadalajara]].
