last night we remember those how lost there life But I would like to say we should also remember what they died for slowly are freedom is slipping away are motto is now a slogans are rights are now just words on paper no longer is it In God We Trust it's more like In God We Hate taking the 10 commandment from school can't pray or read a Bible Now you don't even have to pledge to the flag what have we come to America are we even America any more so this memorial day weekend remember those who had fallen but also remember what they did it for
Yes. Remember that they gave up or were willing to give up their lives to keep us safe.

Either we are twins, or we were just thinking the same thing. Ikr! America has changed. A lot. Sometimes, I wish my ancestors never came. Let alone the people who traveled here in the 19th and 20th centuries didn't know what would happen in the 21st century. Well said! I think the whole deal, protests, anger, shootings, violence is making all this stuff happen. The Star Spangled Banner- Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, - fights every day O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air, - don't bombs burst every night now? Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. - people are ripping our flag Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?- Not the land of the free anymore America, The Beautiful- O beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea! O beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern impassion’d stress A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness! America! America! God mend thine ev’ry flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law! O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine Till all success be nobleness, And ev’ry gain divine! O Beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam, Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea! Even THERE half the stuff doesn't happen. I wish somebody could go back in time and change our fate.
