Agreed. OK, one more post. Many folks really don't know the true meaning of patriot as we once used it. It wasn't intended to mean loyalty to your leadership, but loyalty to a belief. In our case, the belief was in the quest for life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and eventually equal rights for all. The first American "patriots" weren't even Americans yet, but disloyal, disgruntled subjects of an unpopular king and his trolls. Yes, the first "patriots" are what the present rulers of the good old U.S.A. would call terrorists or traitors if their efforts were rekindled. That's what the king called them, and those who were caught were shot or hanged for treason. Food for thought.
