How did it happen????

July 3, about 8 in the evening, and I am sitting here crying. Been listening to the Gaither Gospel show, and they are singing patriotic music, Just heard Vestal Good sing God Bless American, and the tears came, for a number of reasons.

One, I think we are losing our freedoms and all of the things that we have known all these years ....

Now they are doing The Battle Hymn of the Rdpublic, more tears.

On the news tonight they were interviewing some children, not a one knew that actual reason for this holiday. They thought it had something to do with soldiers  "or something like that." That is sad.  Is it any wonder that our freedoms can be taken away from us, and we don't know it, or seem to care.

We can expect no less, when some want that American Flag taken out of our classrooms, because it offends the Hispanics (I had to laugh, I didn't capitalize it, spellcheck corrected me, they must know something). If that happens, we can kiss our Freedom, and our asses, goodbye.

I was always taught to observe and remember the Declaration of Independence on this day, what that meant, and to be proud for our country. I wonder what they are teaching our kids now.

Not too many years from now, it will be illegal to celebrate this holiday, it will OFFEND too many of those who live in this country.

What and how did it all happen????????
