Happy 4th of July. I Declare.

In this time of struggle in which our government once again embraces the tyranny of government for the few at the expense of the many we must not forget what the 4th of July means. It does not represent an epic struggle to find a seat for the local fireworks or a never before seen achievement in pool sales.

The 4th of July is about remembering those who cleared this rocky road of freedom and remembering why they bothered to do so in the first place. As Congress lay chains upon us slowing our every step we must remember that we and we alone have the power to throw off these chains and strike down the despots. They tell us that we must bear our chains to be free. I say I have never seen a free man in chains.
