~ 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.

Not necessarily the fear. I guess they got tired of being unceremoniously dropped on the floor every time they woke me up. LOL! Now they pile up on me to sleep and get down to play. They’re learning.

Good evening, radu, and Happy Independence Day!!

I heard fireworks last night and some tonight. They are, of course, illegal in the whole area.

LOL! It’s kinda hard to keep people from celebrating our country’s Independence Day by making fireworks illegal in some places. People are gonna do it no matter what. Good for them!

It’s sounded like a war zone around here the past several nights. Fireworks ALL around the area.

They’ll start acting a little civilized, then get out here with Arabelle, brat Lily, and some of the other obnoxious ones and that’ll be the end of it. LOL!

Good night and sleep well. Hope Peaches is outside. :-)

Good morning, Canteen. Good morning to our

AWESOME

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities.
Dropping in to wish every FReedom loving person
...Happy Independence Day

Nothing planned for today.
Hoping for some rain, later on.
Will be watching a hero movie this evening
while we comfort our elder dog during fireworks.

Time for me to make my rounds.
Please stick around and visit with the military
and/or family members.
That's what we're here for.

The FR Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.
