Independence day

[slamlander]

I wish all my fellow Americans a good show but do remember to reflect on the meaning of it all. Liberty and freedom, what we give up in exchange for those two. TANSSTAAFL. Liberty and freedom come at a price; security! As Americans, we really need to reflect on that. As Americans, we really need to keep an eye on what our fellow Americans are

On the Fourth, we celebrate open rebellion, high treason, and disobedience.

We celebrate men who killed their countrymen for their principles.

Men who risked being demonized and executed by their government, for their principles.

Don’t you ever, ever forget that.

Ever.

It’s not about apple pie, baseball, fireworks, and the Declaration of Independence.

The Fourth is about men holding to their principles strongly enough to lead to killing, rebellion, and treason.

Such actions led them to freedom.

Expensive, horrible, priceless freedom.
