Two hundred and fifty years ago, 56 men gathered in Philadelphia and committed treason against the most powerful empire on Earth.
Representing 13 colonies, they were landowners, entrepreneurs, politicians and others who had become gripped by new ideas flowing from Enlightenment thinkers and Christian teaching.
Those convictions led them to start a war no sane person believed they could win — and what happened inside the Pennsylvania State House did not just create a nation. It helped create the political world we still live in today.
Boycotting your country’s 250th birthday because you hate the current President is like refusing to celebrate your own child’s birthday because you despise their father.
The UFC paid for this, not you. You paid for benefits for illegal immigrants and Somalian learing centers. And that's largely why your groceries are expensive.
Hope this helps.
I never want to hear again how we can’t deport some Abuela who’s been here for 30 years but still doesn’t speak a word of English because “America is all she knows.”
These guys have been here less than a week and are more American than every post Hart-Cellar immigrant combined.
