Subject: They pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor...
So here's what happened to those that signed.
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence?
Five signers were captured by the British as traitors and tortured before they died.
Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.
Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army, another had two sons captured.
Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War.
They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
Would we be willing to do the same now?

Topic: Happy 4th of July
Subject: It was the People... of the People.....for the People......
When in the course of human events.........
There wasn't regular army when this country took it's independance. It was the people risking everything. If you check back on who signed the Declaration most of them did lose everything.
Remeber what we said and think of why we said!
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Actually it was "written" in stages between 1937 and 1949, much of it during World War II.
The story I heard was that he wrote it for his son during the war and sent it to him while he was in the service.
It was published in 1954 -55.

Topic: Voyages of Rocinante - Serenity/Firefly RPG
Subject: A Flash In The Brain Pan................
Ash hit the floor and rolled out of instinct. He thought the deputy might start to shoot blind after the flash ruined his sight. He knew a moving target would be harder to track, but the kid’s luck was just staying with him, the deputy had left his post to go around the corner and the flash did nothing but attract his attention back the hatch.
As Wolf dropped into the mine shaft the Mustard brother started to shoot wildly. Not being able to raise his rifle quickly enough to aim his shots missing. Wolf on the other hand had his shotgun ready and his first shoot caught the deputy in the shoulder.
Seeing an opportunity, Ash charges with knife drawn. The deputy got in a lucky hit as he swung the rifle at Ash with his good arm. The gun caught the kid in the knee, knocking him slightly off his attack. But the kid was still able plant his combat knife deep in the deputies stomach, opening a gushing bully wound.
Raging in pain and shock the last of brothers kicked out, slamming his boot into the knee he had hit with the rifle butt. Ash dropped to the shift floor. Hollering in fury the deputy attempted to smash in the kid’s skull using the rifle as a club, Wolf stepped up, shotgun raised.
The scream of the deputy as he swing the rifle was mute by the roar the sawed off 12 gauge. The still closely patterned shot hit the fool in the head, removing his face and splattering his brain over jagged rock and loose dirt of the mine shaft wall. The crimson spray showed dark ever on the moist mine interior.
As the last of the Mustard brothers dropped like sack of rotten potatoes, the mine shuddered from the impact of scatter gun’s sound vibrations on the weak and aging supports. When the minor tremors had stopped Ash looked over at Wolf, “Gorram it’s nice to have you around, thanks..... I’d say you spread that Mustard pretty thin. “ Then looking down at the body of dead deputy, “We’d better search him, he may have a suppressor to use on that riffle; I don’t think we want to chance to many more shotgun blasts...... We’d better prepare for that Lurn Shwei Jah Jwohn Sheriff to return too.”
The kid groaned as he got up to go check the deputy, “I sure hope he’s the last of them, I don’t have too many more places left that family ain’t thumped.”

Subject: Now Wait A Chicken Picken Minute....................
Hey.... I'm not whining, just because Ash was shot in back,three times, caught by a exploding booby trap, ambushed by the girl that shot him in the back and then blown off the roof of a build when she pulled a grenade and then the build falls on him.
After that the wack in the knee was a refreshing change of pace,lol.
It's good thing the young heal quickly.
So bring it on, Ash is just getting warmed up.

Thank goodness there aren't any more Mustard family, I think all of them got their licks in on the Kid.
Can we say the Mustard family is spread a little thin!
Don't tell me, there is still another sister; Honey Mustard.
Or maybe Grandpa Grey Poupon.
Gee, I think I got a few lines for my next post.
Gee do we have a bio-suit and a flamethrower on board? A bit of roast and toast of those sicky bugs and the maybe a little loot a la soot!
