Believe it or not, Lefties, my request is not as outrageous as it may first sound. There is nothing about this holiday for you to like, so I'm really not asking you to give up much. We know that you hate it when Americans appropriate foreign cultures, so in all fairness we have to ask that you not appropriate a culture that is entirely foreign to you! Let's go through the various elements:
Grilling: Feminists have declared that grilling is sexist, as seen in this video from the always excellent Mark Dice
Meat: Of course, grilling means meat! No self respecting American thinks of throwing a quinoa burger on the grill. So of course Leftists are against meat
Beer: I've heard that there are people who run a grill without a beer in their hand. Really! I just don't understand why anyone would chose to do so. Before The University of Delaware killed its fine tradition of tailgating we had a motto that was a take on a bad ad campaign that the Army used back in the 80s: "We drink more before 9:00 AM than most people drink all day".
Where was I? Oh yes, Leftists and beer. Yes, lefties will drink beer, but a pumpkin spice IPA doesn't exactly go with grilling. Which may be why the Radical Left had one of their usual meltdowns over some patriotic beer cans that Budweiser used two years ago. Hey, Bud's not my first choice either but on the 4th of July why not?
Fireworks: Pollution is bad for the environment. Unexplained with that theory is how the world doesn't end every July 5th from our horribly polluted environment.
The Flag: Lefties have never found a disrespectful gesture toward the flag that they didn't love. Sorry Lefties, the flag doesn't go on the grill!
The Declaration of Independence - OK technically it wasn't signed on the 4th, but it's as good a day to commemorate as any. So Lefties are against it because... somehow it enabled slavery.

Bravo.
Don’t forget. There was no independence for blacks and Native Americans on July 4, 1776. It’s a white man’s holiday. Liberals should ignore it.
They like May 1 also.
You beat me to it. Yeah, the Comrades are very fond of 1 May.
Labor Day is another.
Say, they award themselves all sorts of holidays, don’t they? :-D
These liberal POS get days and months to celebrate their mission and vision to destroy America as founded. America and the Patriots of our country get ONE day.
The whole world expropriates Anglo-Saxon culture.
Grilling part of an animal I bought on the free market. That should keep the pests away.

Levin basically touched on this very issue tonight with our own sen Cardin as the sample. Why waving the flag, why singing, why any RWB when you’re constantly degrading us?
July 4 is also the anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, a turning point in the Civil War.
While the Union victory at the Battle of Gettysburg was most important, the real Battle that was a key turning point in the Civil War was won on the same days surrounding the fourth of July Gettysburg victory....the U.S. Grant critical victory at Vicksburg, MS, which denied the Confederacy the use of the entire Mississippi River.
No, it ended July 3. First 3 days of July.
