Happy Birthday to the Nations Army that was formed BEFORE we had a nation.
247 years ago, a people wanted to have a say in how they were governed and were willing to fight for that.
They tried for years to change things though protests, legal, and political efforts. But in the end they had to take up arms to get the freedom they were entitled to.
I see a lot of that in todays world.
As the writer Claire Wolfe said: “Today the nation is in that awkward place; it is nearly intolerable but it is also to soon to shoot the bastards”
