Many think who believe that 4th of July is all about the fireworks and barbecues are wrong! 4th of July is our patriotic holiday as we CELEBRATE the INDEPENDENCE of OUR COUNTRY. Sure people dress up in red, white and blue and celebrate with barbecues, parades, trips down the shore and festivals ending the night with fireworks, but it is important that we NEVER FORGET the true meaning of 4th of July. The Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4, 1776. The Declaration of Independence was the final break between the colonies and the day United States of America was born! We celebrate 4th of July because it is our symbol of the courage our forefathers had in signing and committing an act of treason against the British King and declaring AMERICA FREE.
Although we all enjoy the festivities and fireworks on the 4th of July, let us NOT take our liberty and freedom for granted, never forget the true meaning of the 4th of July and what it means for our amazing country and the freedom we are afforded here in the United States of America because of our forefathers.

Make sure as you celebrate 4th of July and the Birth and Freedom of our Country, you do not unintentionally violate or disrespect the American Flag. Many Americnas don't even realize that they are!
