America, F YEAH! Cut to go pro shot of missile speeding toward Iran. Coming to kick your m-f'ng a-! That would be a fitting way to celebrate two and a half centuries of awesomeness.

The 250th anniversary is now drawing close. If we follow the previous major milestone the bicentennial back in 1976, we need to begin plans now to design events and celebrations.

How should it be celebrated? A new landmark or statue? Some new tradition? Something else?
Have people celebrate it however they want to.

Stop wrongfully convicting, brutalizing and murdering black people. That would be nice.

Tell the world we are having a huge party and invite the leaders of every country to attend, tell them to bring gifts and once we receive the gifts tell them the party is over and go home.

Would be nice way to end 250 years. We could say it's been a nice ride but it's time for us to go our separate ways. Elites won't let that happen, but it would be a great way to end it.

America is a failed country and not awesome in any way. just ask any Southerner.

For all those who live here and want this country broken up. How bout you just leave and go someplace more fitting for you. Every part of this country needs every other part. We are also no different and we share the same culture. Yes, the south is not really any different then the northeast, except a bit less snow.

And another point for those wishing. How long do you think you'll live in any kind of peace if the US splits up? Really? There are many out there who want to destroy us but together we are a strong nation. If broken up I can guarantee an invasion from some wackjob in another country. And you won't have the strength of the modern day US military to back you up.

Face it, all our regions work together. And quite well really.

Nope, not anymore. The US govt is a failed govt that is dysfunctional in every way. We are just too different. The South is a far right wing Christian theocracy in the making. We in the Northeast want nothing to do with that. We'll be fine apart from each other. If need be we can form alliances in times of war. I want nothing to do with the South and their far right wing politics and heavy duty mixing of religion and govt. Have you heard Huckabee lately. Good riddance.
