Independence Day, our day of freedom ^^ I do get really proud of my country around then, thinking of all of the good days of yore ^__^ </patriotism> :p :cheese:

July 4th doesn't hit America for another 4 1/2 hours!

Unfortunatly, I have to work during the whole morning. At least I will be able to see fireworks. To show my patriotism, I will right out "The Star Spangled Banner", the official theme song of America:

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light? What so proudly we hail at the twilight's last gleaming.

Who's broad stripes and bright stars, through their perilous flight, o'er ramparts we fought, were so galantly streaming.

Through the rocket's red glare, the bomb's bursting in air, came proof though the night that the flag was still there.

Oh say does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave, o'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.

No it's not. It's because the Americans who ended up fighting the Revolutionary War were oppressed by the King of Britain. It's because they were taxed without representation, forced to quarter troops, and all together treated like dirt. It's because of every man, woman, and child who took up arms (or otherwise helped) in order to free ourselves and become a new country. It's because of those brave men that we celebrate the fourth, not because of the country that we broke away from. We gained our independence from Great Britain by force, it wasn't handed to us on a silver plate.

To say that it's because of the oppressive country in the war that we have independence is like saying african americans have their slave owners to thank for their freedom. And that would be disgusting, and enraging, to hear.

I never said it was, I was merely mentioning that without us, you'd have never needed to fight the oppression and thus not celebrating Independence Day. It was only meant as a joke anyway, I have a lot of respect for the USA, because after all my girlfriend is a Chicagoan.
