Celebrating the independence of the United States of America

Over two centuries ago a group of learned men finally decided enough was enough, and set out to disobey King George III in order to free the American colonies from the clutches of tyranny. They risked their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor because they believed the stakes were too high to simply do nothing. For far too long they had watched their fellow citizens suffer under the combined weight of an unfair monetary system, crippling taxation, unresponsive government, and oppressive authoritarian power. It was time for a change; it was time for a Great Experiment; it was time to give birth to a constitutional republic; a new nation called the United States of America.

Let us celebrate their courage, enjoy the freedoms they bequeathed to us; and endeavor to restore the light of liberty for ourselves and our posterity.
