Freedom is the thing that has made America great. It was perhaps a happy accident that the country was founded when the best minds in the world were throwing off the yoke of rule by monarchies and colonialism. We were mostly without the excesses of the past and the first to grant the individual freedoms that made us different from the rest of the world.

When you examine the country from a historical view, it is likely we have done more good for the world than any other group of people. Don't take it lightly and remember those who have died to preserve it.

Never cede your freedoms for any reason, they may never return, and remember that many on this planet will never experience what we have here.
