Repost: Its pretty soppy. I deleted it; I was embarrassed. [View all]

But a good friend was sure I should repost it, so -

I've been out of the states for more than two decades; here's what No kKngs means to me.

It means what my parents believed and what I was taught in school was not a pack of lies. It means the word patriot is not a cipher for popular. It means the heart of our constitutional republic is still beating. It means we the people have not given up and won't give up. It means those who lampooned George Washington were wrong and are still wrong. It means those who died on the beaches in Normandy did not die in vain. It means everything.
