      I shared this informative video of true history. They started to block it on you tube. I cant comment or send on FB now. I guess they do not want people to know REAL HISTORY.

    I am so ashamed as an American that we citizens have not kept the America that our grandparents fought so hard for. I am not speaking about those who have fought for, supported or defended our country. But those of us who have taken our country for granted, have been apathetic, or abused rights and laws. We are now suffering greatly and still have learned no lessons.

    I got chills watching this video. It's very moving to think of those men who believed so strongly in our nation that they were willing to risk it all, and it hurts to see what's become of their sacrifices. Many of us still have deep appreciation and honor their memories, but TPTB are trying to change history. We can't let them.

I also had some Great-Greats that fought the war in the area! My ancestors (The Little's) came from Ireland & Scotland, during the huge Potato Famine). It is beautiful there. Thanks for taking me along, I have never been there. Stay safe & God bless. GRAM in TEXAS.

    Patara, thank you for sharing this with us today. My mother's father's side of my family was here before the Rev War. My father's father's side includes George Roger Clark and William Clark. My family has been involved in service to our great country from them to now. I serve as an EMT. I no longer serve on an ambulance, but I provide emergency medical services at a Boy Scout camp as a volunteer. Many of my relatives have served in the military as well as police officers.
    It breaks my heart to see what has happened to our great country. It isn't too late to turn it around, we just have to step up and make responsible choices to bring things back to right.

    My mother has been doing genealogy for years and has most all of our ancestry back into the 1600's , and some much farther back. I marvel at the rich history and the stories we've uncovered. It's humbling and glorious to know the strengths of my bloodlines. To me, it gives me strength and resolve for how could I ever doubt who I am with the ancestry that brought me here. I pray they all are up there urging us on to be the people who we need to be to get through this. I pray with all my strength that they stand beside us in our battles to come 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Also did a lot of riding on the horse trails there as well. A lot of history there. Important history. Americans as well as Canadians need to have courage and fight for our freedoms again.
