Independence Day

In practice, nothing guarantees our freedoms except our willingness to fight for them.

-- Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap

Pulling Down the Statue of George III at Bowling Green in Lower Manhattan, by William Walcutt

And on a lower note:

They fought so unfairly from back of the trees

If they'd only fought open, we'd have beat 'em with ease

They can fight one another that way if they please

But we don't have to stand for such tactics as these!

We're the old soldiers of the King

And the King's Own Regulars . . .

-- Traditional (I think)
