All Patriots Please Rise . . .

. . . because today is Constitution Day. Yep, 216 years ago today, the Constitution of the United States was signed. Granted, ratification did not occur by the states for some months afterword, but we recognize today as the anniversary. We've come a long way since then. Many laws and documents have come forth to speak of our rights. Earlier, the Declaration of Independence protects our rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I'm not going to take you on a walk throughout history, but it helps to remember these things every so often. It would be tragic if these rights were abrogated or forgotten. One of the rights guaranteed by our consitution gives us the right to free speech, a right to which I exercise regularly in all of my editorials. So, as I mentioned before, the rantings will continue. All patriots, please rise. See ya.
