Saturday Stuff

As I've said, there's no place for the "stars n' bars" in a public display or on a government building, and I certainly don't think people should make money off it (and I don't think its meaning should be sanitized either), but there is a place for it, sadly, and I think the folks from Gettysburg Park (a place we've visited) have the right idea...



...and I politely take issue with some of these "patriotic" movie selections (here) that, basically, celebrate war - here is my choice; it even opens with a July 4th scene - and yes, war is included also, but it certainly isn't celebrated...



...and I hope everyone has a good holiday in the spirit that was intended all those years ago.
