Happy 4th of July fellow Americans and all who celebrate it!

Let’s all remember all the colonists who died fighting one of the most powerful militaries at the time, for our freedom.

America may have a lot of problems, but we have gotten through them for the last 250 years, we can get through today’s.

Lol funny to see how alot of these the government gives no regard to and also how heavily the tenth amendment is just ignored

Agree it seems to be getting more and more challenging to uphold these rights, but still stronger than in most (if not all) countries.

Should we add wiping out the indigenous habitant of this continent, enslaving Africans, stealing resources of other countries, killing and displacing millions of people in places like Vietnam, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc with that powerful army, orchestrating coups in other countries like Chile, Iran, etc. supporting most brutal regimes in the world, South Africa before change, Israel, Saudi Arabia, military regimes in South America?

Should we really be proud of ourselves?

Pretty sure the colonists didn’t do most of that… Slavery was a global thing, Europe and Portugal were doing it long before the America. But it was the Americans that put an end to it on a global level.

Also, I’m specifically referring to our fight against England for our freedom, that was a good thing.
