Wishing Everyone A Happy And Safe 4th Of July Independence Day.

wbcgaruss

I would like to wish everyone a safe and happy July 4th holiday.

While celebrating remember our original founding fathers who put their lives and everything they owned on the line to start this new nation.
Their lives were especially on the line because if they didn't succeed high treason was punishable by death.
And since the beginning, many have lost their lives in war to preserve this country and our freedom.
So today, remember our founders, our fallen, and our heroes with a tone of seriousness because all the liberties we have would not be possible without their sacrifice.
Then also celebrate with great fervency and joy for the blessings we have as a free nation once again adding a year as we would add a birthday to our nation's history.

Happy July 4th Independence Day to all the folks on CSN H&N and God Bless you and God Bless America.

It was a historic moment when Thomas Jefferson, along with other members of the Continental Congress,
drafted the Declaration of Independence. The Continental Congress
declared the people of America independent from the British colonies. It
was the moment of truth all Americans had waited for. If the effort of
severing ties from the British succeeded, the leaders of the movement
would be hailed as true American heroes. However, if the effort failed,
the leaders would be guilty of treason and face death.

Clever Wording, Smart Strategies

It was the clever wording of the Declaration of Independence,
followed by some smart strategies employed by the leaders that sparked
the Independence movement. What followed was a relentless power struggle
to gain absolute independence from the British monarchy.

July 4, 1776, was the historic day when the Continental Congress
approved the Declaration of Independence. Every year, Americans rejoice
and celebrate Independence Day, or the 4th of July, with great fanfare.
Amidst colorful parades, flag-hoisting ceremonies, and barbecue parties,
Americans remember the suffering their forefathers endured to win them
precious freedom.
