It’s a firework holiday, so let’s light up the night, wave the stars and stripes, eat barbecue and drink bud light. We’ll celebrate the liberties that SCOTUS says we’ve still got It appears they’ve all been bought and before their terms are over they’ll resurrect Dred Scott. Watermelon, hot wings we’ve even added new things, like smash & grab lootings and frequent random shootings. Some Republicans want to break away to form a less perfect union can you form a successful nation based on the politics of illusion? There used to be parades I’m told, that featured local things, like fire fighting brigades I guess we’re just to fractured now, to sashay in such displays. I bet those were the days. . . Webster: Sashay = proudly walk in confident display
