Guns used during world wars versus guns to defend oneself at home. More fruit. Wasn't it Vicksburg that didn't celebrate the July 4th holiday until the 1970's. This year, with the alcohol commercials and all, it amounts to at least a 4-day drunkfest starting Thursday.
Nor do fireworks that celebrate the carnage and blood spilled through the use of artillery and explosives. That is a travesty to give homage to death and destruction through the display of fireworks.
BTW, without guns and those willing to use them, those ideas would have been essentially moot. Evil men with guns (or machetes) and the willingness to use them, will always defeat men with noble ideas. Always.
