Not hearing “Independence Day” much this year, so let me say it loud:

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!!!

It’s about a revolution against the tyrannies of old King George.

How could so much of our hard-won independence for our freedom and democracy been so senselessly squandered?

How could Independence Day be represented the way I’m seeing it this year? I want to see more patriots and less nationalists!

Give me liberty or give me death - it’s on the license plates still in New Hampshire, isn’t it? Say it is. I’m from Massachusetts, and the history of that great struggle is a matter of pride there. In Georgia…. well.

We’ll still go see the fireworks - just not at Stone Mountain.
