Charlie,as we light our grills and watch the fireworks tonight, we need to remember back to the battle for our independence and amid the bombs bursting in air, our flag was still there! I pray that it will always be so, today we face a new fight for independence, the freedom to bear arms! Though some may not like the comparison free men and firearms go hand in hand! God bless our country! Gary

A second fight is to keep our history from being erased from the books. The president, the South Carolina Carpetbagging Governor, the Yankee Virginia Governor, Walmart, Mattel, Amazon, boring NASCAR, "No Bubba" Watson, Dale "Traitor to the South" Earnhardt Jr., etc. all jump on the bandwagon to make a buck and/or be politically correct.
Gary, remember we had a conversation about this last year. My son was renting a place in MD and the woman would not let him park a car in the driveway there with a Sons of Confederate Veterans license plate. The same son while in school had the teacher ask his class "Does anyone know what day this is?" He raised his hand and told her it was Lee-Jackson day, for Generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. She told him he was wrong, "it was for Robert E. Lee and Andrew Jackson." She never corrected it.
General Patrick Cleburne, who gave his life for the Confederacy, knew what would happened. He never owned a slave and in 1863 proposed freeing all of them to fight the North for the freedom of the South.
“Every man should endeavor to understand the meaning of subjugation before it is too late...It means the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern schoolteachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the war; will be impressed by the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, and our maimed veterans as fit objects for derision..."
Maj. Gen Patrick R. Cleburne, CSA
January, 1864
As President Davis said: "All we ask is to be left alone."
