Here’s a story from the Tillamook County Pioneer that describes how an entry in the Fourth of July parade of was deemed too political. The entry–people dressed as the Statue of Liberty, one with a sash that said “Protect the Constitution” and one with the word “Choice” on the crown.

Have we truly come to this? We were supposed to be celebrating our Independence. This censorship is not that. My heart is even heavier as the consequences of the destruction of our American ideals comes to our community.
