It's not enough that the liberty-haters in the nation's capitol believe the intent of the Founders was to rule over disarmed subjects--they hate our traditions so much they even want to eradicate our celebrating the Fourth of July.
What did John Adams have to say about the matter?
"The 4th of July, 1776, will be a memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to Almighty God. It ought to be solemnized with pomp, shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of the continent to the other, from this time forward, forever."
