The year 1776, when a little upstart cluster of colonies stood up to a mighty empire and told them to sod off with their laws, and embraced freedom amidst the thrusts of bayonets and the rattle of musketry. A year that will long be remembered, and still celebrated today as the birth of the greatest and most free nation that ever existed in Earth's history.
America might not be perfect, but it still has the most freedoms and the most opportunity, and I'm proud to live here and call myself an American.
Happy Independence Day everyone! Have fun with flint and powder, and of course tons of fireworks!
