Events in 1776 - 250 Years Ago

Two-Hundred and Fifty Years ago our country was being birthed.  My good friend and fellow conservative Rachel Kautz put together a calendar of events that happened in 1776.

May 10, 1776 - Congress passed a resolution for the Colonies to form new governments

56 brave souls signed the Declaration of Independence, putting their lives on the line.  Several did lose their lives.  They lost property.  Their families were harassed and threatened and arrested by the British.  But all these men and their families knew the worth of their courage and if successful, what it would mean to the colonists and to the world at large.  Ponder our history and the sacrifices made by our founders which include all who backed and fought for our Independence.  When you light those fireworks, listen to the great music, enjoy the festivals throughout this year, remember what it took so we could live FREE.

Thus I ask, would you do the same today to save the United States?  To protect your neighbors?  To give your descendants a free and secure society, full of opportunity?  I fear many would not just as many backed the British in 1776.  Our country is being ripped apart from the inside.  If we do not stand up and resist those who promote socialism and the evil of anti-semitism, they will succeed in making society fully dependent on the government and prohibit private ownership of property and wealth.  But those who promote such division themselves enjoy and desire all they want to destroy - they want to be the owners and overlords and amass all the wealth.
