John, 247 years ago, our founding fathers freed us from tyranny and laid the foundation of our great nation. They proclaimed that governments derive power from the people, forging a nation dedicated to liberty, self-governance, and the protection of individual rights. As we gather with friends and family, please remember that the freedom our forefathers fought for is not a guarantee. It is our responsibility to protect it and pass it on to the next generation. Have a happy and safe Independence Day. |
