Today is our Nation's 233rd birthday. Two hundred and thirty three years ago today, our Founding Fathers celebrated their new found freedom with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. They paved the road for future generations to be able to live out all of their God given freedoms.
Some of these freedoms are the freedom to enjoy religion, to bear arms, to own property, to obtain an education, to vote by secret ballot, to become entrepeneurs, and possibly most importantly to peacefully assemble in protest.
Today, I practiced my freedom to peacefully assemble and use my voice to protest with thousands of others across America. We came out to protest the large government machine that is doing everything in their power to repeal our freedom.
Citizens of Pittsburgh and the surrounding areas gathered once again today. This time on Flagstaff Hill, across from Phipps Conservatory.
Here is my son and I. His first lesson in the 1st Amendment:
God Bless America. Thank you to everyone who has fought in the past, and continues to fight to spread freedom and liberty throughout the world.
By the way...can you spot any of the racist rednecks??
