The FReeper Canteen Presents...
~ Independence Day, July 4, 1776 ~
Preamble to the Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Good evening, Luv!
*HUGS*
Well, I guess I should have given a hanky alert! I'm still cleaning up the keyboard here as I am just about every time I see that video.
The narrative of my viewing it with my sons is absolutely accurate. They have the right instincts notwithstanding the corrosive effect of our media and the gulag that passes as our public schools. They'll make it and will serve. I only hope that there are enough young ones of like mind to sustain this Nation through the reckoning that is upon us!

I think they will surprise us in a good way just as young people always have done. There are youngsters joining up daily to protect and defend. :)

I hope to the Lord you are right! I believe we still have a great reservoir of young men and women in this Nation who espouse our values and will step up to the plate, regardless of what the hoi-polloi may say.

Thank you, Kathy!
I want to tell you that I called my aunt to notify her of your nice posts so she could show them to my uncle. She’s sick and will show him when she gets well. Thanks again.
