00:15We're gonna shoot the entire works on fireworks that really show, oh yeah, we declared our liberty 200 years ago, yeah.
00:27In 1776, there were fireworks too, red, white and blue, the original colonists would know their tempers blue, like Thomas Paine once wrote, it's only common sense, that if a government won't give you your basic rights, you better get another government.
