When asked, “What country famously broke away from England to start their own country in the late 1700’s,” one man responded, “I have no idea man, I don’t know.”
Asked what Americans were celebrating on the 4th of July, another woman said that Independence Day was to recognize “the day that we overtook the south….it’s our independence….from the south,” a reference to the civil war which took place almost a hundred years later.

Most Americans are retarded but this was known.

Good. What happened back then isn't as important as what's happening now. Those who study and obsess over history are doomed to repeat it.

This is why there should be a test to vote. If you dont know what the 4th of July is for your vote shouldn't count the same as mine. IDGAF who has a problem with it.

I'll never understand how people can be that stupid.

It's why we are so easily manipulated by our government. Most of them giggle like idiots at their own stupidity.

That doesn't make any sense. How could you repeat something you forgot about? Pretty sure my way is closer to the actual quote.

I hope he was trolling, or he'd fit right in in that video.

I'm surprised people in California have even heard of it honestly

No, it makes perfect sense. If you are unaware of mistakes that others have made before you, you are much more likely to make the same mistakes. Point being, learn from experience.

Nah. I think you're much more likely to repeat if you stew over it. Like someone with an alcoholic mother who only dates alcoholic chicks in college. It's best to just put it on the past and move on.
Who gives a frick about why it's fun, just enjoy the fireworks and the day off work.

No way that'll happen. The test would be racially biased and that wouldn't be fair to everyone.

I bet everyone of those frickers in that video look down on us because we live in the South..
