  Independence Day and African Americans

  a black friend of mine will not celebrate the 4th of july.

  he feels it's a mockery since black people were still slaves when the country gained its independence.. i wanted to hear what other people think of that.

  that's the first person i've ever heard mention it, but i never thought about that.

  Jimmy:

  It is good your friend now has the freedom to make that stand. Isn't that more important than if I agree with his stance or not.

  The freedoms entrenched by the Declaration of Independence/Bill of Rights are more than reason to celebrate today, regardless of what particular individual politicians were doing at that time.

  "my name is John ... and I... am ... CANADIAN!!!! (spin off from a beer commercial)

  Yep it was a great day of relaxing, raising a pint or two to my country got off a rendition or two of "Oh Canada" lit of some fireworks.

  Canadians are a funny breed, but July 1 is the one day when it is okay to be patriotic...otherwise is is an understated patriotism the rest of the year...after all we don't want to offend other countries. smirk ... typical Canadian mentality...

  Well we celebrated Canada's brthday yesterday, I am celebrating mine today, and will be celebrating the US' on Wednesday ...what a great week!!
