235 Years and 2 days ago ~ on July 2nd, 1776 ~
12 Colonies ~ not
13 ~ voted to Declare a War of Independence against the most powerfull State in the
World, announcing it two days later, on
July 4th, 1776.
THAT....took BALLS.
*********************************************************
* We Patriots started this Grand Rebellion.
* We Patriots fired the first shots.
* And, at first,
we Patriots stood alone.
* And, at first,
we Patriots fought alone.
*********************************************************
* But
we Patriots fought with such
ferocious valor, against
overwhelming odds...that we eventually inspired every other Colony to
join us.
* We Patriots...were the Heart and Soul of the first War of Independence
in the history of this world that was fought not for a language, nor for a religion, nor for privileges and power...but for
Liberty.
* We Patriots ~ and only a native of the 6 States of New England can
ever claim that name ~ will be forevermore the Heart and Soul of this greatest of all Nations.
* Indeed, so deeply and dominantly is our character
ingrained in this nation that
we Patriots led to Freedom...that our very name ~ Patriots ~ has come to be applied ~ incorrectly ~ to
any American, by those foreign to our land.
*********************************************************
But "Patriots" has always meant ~ and will always mean ~ only one thing:
A native of New England, home of the greatest Patriots of the Greatest War of Independence.
No
more.
No
less.
And it
sure as hell doesn't apply to anyone affiliated with
New York...
...The only one of the 13 Colonies that did NOT vote for Independence, that historic day!!
