Title: The 'Merica Thread
Post by: Snake on July 02, 2013, 11:21:18 PM
CAUTION: THERE MAY BE A DANGER FOR BRITISH RESIDENTS. (unit)

Alright. So, until 11:59 pm CST on July 4th, let's see who can post the greatest/most patriotic/funniest/most awesome picture describing America.

Why do this, you may ask?

The blogger is an Aussie living and traveling in America (and the world.) He seems to have a good eye for the 'Merica we locals take for granted, and he takes lots of pictures for his blog (http://deanoinamerica.wordpress.com/). His most recent entry has a groovy set of all things Philadelphia, including the Liberty Bell, and Liberty Hall. I like all that historical patriotic stuff so I'm gonna git me a coke an see what this foreigner has to say 'bout it all.

Seriously, the best way to look at this place (and ourselves) is through the eyes of a stranger.

-edit (I don't think this will be the funniest, by far, just sharing)

The deadline is when July 4th is over, because we celebrate our independence all day July 4th.

Here's how you should celebrate the 4th: sign the petition to pardon Edward snowden:

Actually, far more important is that you understand what Snowden did and what it tells us about freedom in the US today.
