It represents the best of America. It is a "tradition" therefore needs to be gutted. It reminds people of the war for Independence, which is patriotic, therefore must be eliminated.
If it is pro-America it needs to die so that the masses forget about the goodness of America and accept their new marxist overlords.
That's why.
Fight.
The bullshit from GodGov gets deeper and deeper.
Liberals try real hard but they haven’t exterminated us yet. I went to my hometown for Independence day for the first time in years and found traditional America. Lots of horses, tractors, and kids in our parade.
I made up a slideshow but I don’t know how well it works.

I think a lot it has to do with the fact that fireworks displays have been the traditional method of saluting America and all that she stands for, for almost two centuries. This is not the America they envision and want nothing to do with validating that America.
Simple truth is 4th of July fireworks displays are just too patriotic for many of today's Americans.
There will be high fines and long jail sentences for sparkler bootleggers.
BBQs are already regulated in Los Angeles. Coming Soon To A Theater Near You!

climate change=change to communism.

Cap and Trade bills will only be passed to stop the colors Red, White, and Blue ,in traditional fireworks displays.
What a great parade.
There were a lot of pictures I didn’t include. Fire trucks from all around the area, a truckload of kids on their bikes, that sort of thing.
One thing I noticed missing from the parade was a high school marching band. A teacher won’t work to put it together and not enough kids want to put in the time either.
Note the streets of our town are extremely wide...Why? This width allowed a wagon drawn by Ox or Horse to make a U-Turn.....
Patriotism is alive and well in Fredericksburg, Texas.....
We "almost" got rain last night....Not a cloud in the sky today...predicting up to 105 degrees today...
My little hometown of Hanover Michigan (pop 424 as of 2000) has the biggest celebration in the area. Things were a little subdued this year due to the economy but I would estimate between 15 and 20 thousand people in town for the day. The party store, grocery store and bar were doing a booming business.
There were tractor pulls at the farm heritage museum and the antique reed organ museum had stuff going on all weekend. My niece took 3rd place in the talent contest so she had a good day.
Just Wow! Your sildeshow was wonderful! That is America! Thanks!
Sheer lunacy. I cannot believe ANY professional would even think about doing this work.
Wouldn't it be easier to just ban fireworks and provide government issue Mentos, Diet Pepsi and plastic bottles?
“Green” fireworks???
So, I guess that would be some guy in a cherry-picker bucket, with a pair of flashlights, blinking them on and off?
“Ooooohhh! Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!”
Jeez!
Nothing says America like a father with his kid on a tractor.
The Chinese label this lunacy by year...."the year of the fools".......
America!
Anyone remember the watermelon’s environmental “racism?” That is how overpowering the watermelons can be with this power the House gave to them.
