BREAKING NEWS: A mob in Boston has torn down two statues from the Old State House and set them on fire.

This occurred on July 18, 1776, upon the first public proclamation of the Declaration of Independence in Massachusetts.

It's as American as apple pie.
But keep painting it as something patriots wouldn’t do

Were any of you able to see yesterday's flyover on its way to DC? After the last one I was expecting to see I wasn't prepared, but damn they went literally over our house. Had to be 10-12 of them, different sizes. Most impressive! Better than any fireworks display.

Wish I had seen it. Apparently some people in Boston thought they were under attack.

They went over my house in Newton and it was spectacular. B-52 and stealth bomber were my favorites.

Flight pattern had them about four miles off Marblehead. We herd them. Couldn't see them in the overcast that blew in just before they were due.
