A Happy day! For all those who died, did not die in vain!

May it remain glorious and ever victorious, for all of humanity.

For their sacrifice, was not in vain. Was never in vain.

Happy 4th of July!

WE MUTUALLY PLEDGE TO EACH OTHER OUR LIVES, OUR FORTUNES AND OUR SACRED HONOR

As Herodotus once reported:

Go, tell the Spartans, stranger passing by
That here, obedient to their laws, we lie.

I ask, who dies in vain who's selflessness and sacrifice is studied, honored, and emulated 2500 years later?

Ummm. Disagree there. You enjoy a laptop and an internet connection and freedom, coz someone died for it. His death isn't in vain.

Happy 4th of July AJ.

Are you a proud citizen today or is it not much important for you.

It seems rare here are those who wish others a Happy 4th of July?

I am a proud man.


Every day. I am a citizen, but I often hang my head in shame over the antics of some of my fellow citizens...

Hard to say what would have transpired if we had stayed with Britain.

One of two things: either they had their heads too much up their asses, or discretely let things happen this way.

Any death or deaths that go on to inspire the living to sacrifice in endeavors greater than themselves, for centuries thereafter, aren't in vain.
