I’m a bit dismayed that the 250th isn’t front and center in the news.

I guess the mainstream media isn't interested because they can't spin it as another "white men bad" story. After all, it was just one bunch of white men shooting at another bunch of white men. So who would be interested in that?

One of the Americans wounded at Lexington was a black man, then a slave but later freed...but they probably know too little about Lexington and Concord to be aware of that.

Freedom and America's Free Constitutional Republic are muted in America's lying Leftist media and institutions.

America needs to turn from trysting in man and his gov't to trusting in God and His rule in our lives which brings freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17).

I’m more dismayed about the 250th of the country/Declaration of Independence.

It hasn’t been stated. I’m not seeing big plans publicly announced or anything, as our Bicentennial was leading to 1976.

Me too. I was looking around last year, wondering why no excitement.

Remember all the hoopla for the 400th year of Jamestown?

What happened?! Now a week away, and it's... crickets. 😔

This year Patriot's Day/Boston Marathon falls on Easter Monday, the day of the White House Easter egg roll, so there's that.

The Civil War 150th likewise wasn’t as big a deal as the Centennial.
