OHH
sa can you by the dawns early light, What so proudly be hailed by the
twilights last gleaming. And the rockets red glare the bombs bursting
in air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh
say can you see that star spangled banner, OH the land of the free and
the home of the brave.
May God Bless you all this independance day.

How independent are you? You live in a country where the current régimeis
1. Wiretapping the international communication of Americans with out a
warrant.
(bye bye 4th amendment)
2. Monitoring of money transfers with out a warrant.
(bye bye 4th amendment)
3. Attempted to get search records from google
(bye bye 4th amendment)
4. Detained American citizens in gitmo with out charging them with a crime
or access to an attorney. (Jose Padilla)
(bye bye 6th amendment)
(bye bye 7th amendment)
5. Accusing the NY Times of treason for breaking a story on the money
transfer monitoring, and applying pressure to not publish undesirable
stories.
(bye bye 1st amendment)
6. Requiring protestors to go to free speech zones which are miles from
where the president is
(bye bye 1st amendment)
7. attempting to pass a anti-flag burning amendment
(bye bye 1st amendment)
Plus why is a protestor burning a flag more disgraceful then a business that
flies dirty red/white/blue rags infront of their business? Or politicians
that use old glory as a podium covering? Or sports that use it for uniforms?
8. Creating a new class of people called "enemy combatants" and ignoring all
US and international law regarding their treatment.
9. Guilty until proven innocent if you want to board an airplane


But if you want to pretend you're free, go and wave a flag around.
