(Disclaimer:\u00a0 This is not a political statement or commentary about any current events or controversy.\u00a0 It is merely an observation, coming from someone who used to run a Genealogy Department in a Library.\u00a0 That\u2019s all.)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s about time Americans took back their country.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Honest to Abraham Lincoln.\u00a0 If I hear an American say this one more time, I just might have to kick them right in the shin.\u00a0 Hard.<\/p>\n

Okay\u2026 I won\u2019t kick anyone.\u00a0 But here is the thing.\u00a0\u00a0 The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States of America says\u2026 \u201cWe the People\u2026..\u201d
\nNowhere does it say\u2026 \u201cMe the Person Who Owns This Country & Now I Am Taking IT BACK.\u201d<\/p>\n

It continues\u2026 \u201cThis land is your land, this land is my land.\u00a0 From California to the New York Island\u2026\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 (Hang on .\u00a0 That is a song, by Peter, Paul, and Mary\u2026 the Three Apostles\u2026. but it reiterates the point.)\u00a0 Your Land. My Land.\u00a0 We. We. We.\u00a0 All the way home.<\/p>\n

Let me remind you\u2026 unless you and yours arrived by Spaceship\u2026. OR\u2026\u00a0 you are one of the very few who are 100% Native American Indian\u2026..\u00a0 You got here by BOAT… …. ….. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0FROM ANOTHER DANG COUNTRY.\u00a0 Seriously.\u00a0 You were in the sperm and the eggs of your Mom and Dad.. and their Mom and Dads\u2026 and their Mom and Dads before.<\/p>\n

And somewhere along the line\u2026 those Mommies and Daddies bobbed across the Atlantic from England, or Spain, or Germany\u2026 and stepped foot onto the (THEN) foreign soil\u2026 of the aforementioned land.\u00a0\u00a0 And because this is a land of freedom\u2026 you and yours eventually become Americans.<\/p>\n

Ours.\u00a0 In Freedom. To express our opinions.\u00a0 Our voices.<\/p>\n

So\u2026 I guess it is well within your rights to say out loud\u2026 \u201cIt\u2019s about time Americans took their country back.\u201d<\/p>\n

But it is also in my right to say\u2026 \u201cIf you think you lost your country\u2026 maybe it is time you better head on back to France.\u201d\u00a0 Or wherever it is you came from.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 And we can let the American Indians take their country back.<\/p>\n

Happy Fourth of July.\u00a0 Light a Firecracker.\u00a0\u00a0 Be glad this really is YOUR land.\u00a0 And mine.\u00a0\u00a0 Count your Blessings.\u00a0 America is one of them.<\/p>\n

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves. ~Abraham Lincoln<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There are two freedoms \u2014 the false, where a man is free to do what he likes; the true, where he is free to do what he ought. ~Charles Kingsley<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
