Fireworks were going off, barbecues were being lit, and everyone, everywhere was dressed in the finest of red, white, and blue colors. It was the fourth of July, and there were celebrations of our independence and personal freedom as a nation. This year, despite immense criticisms from family and friends, there are many, myself included, who chose not to celebrate.

As pointed out by Punk Johnny Cash of the Gonzo Times, "I am an anarchist, and I do not celebrate ‘Independence Day'...The celebration ritual is barbaric. Fireworks to symbolize the bombs of a militant force they perceive as a liberator. People honor and glorify those who choose to murder for the state. They wave the flag that has been waved over countless victims of the United States. This is the Red White and Blue flag that was waved over innocent victims in Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam and throughout the history of warfare."

There are others who refrained from the annual flag-waving, as their belief was held that America, by the very definition of freedom, is not a free country, that the government is tyrannical, out of control, and slowly but surely stripping the American people of their autonomy.
