At least 8 people, including 4 children, were shot during a #July4th barbecue in the #ConeyIsland neighborhood of #Brooklyn Saturday, acc/to police.

As family celebrated #IndependenceDay in the courtyard of a home, an unknown man dressed in all black & wearing a black ski mask approached the fence line along Surf Ave & fired multiple rounds into the courtyard before fleeing on foot, NYPD Com Jessica Tisch told reporters Sunday.

On July 4, 1976, I was almost 7. My family lived in Janesville, Wisconsin then. I remember having a picnic on the banks of the Rock River and watching fireworks. I remember thinking that it was amazing to be alive then, and I remember wondering about the next 100 years.

I figured it wasn't super-likely that I'd be around in 2076, but I did think I'd see 2026. Given that I was starting to get an interest in space and rockets and being an astronaut, I distinctly remember thinking that by 2026, the world would be awesome - moon bases, space stations (Skylab mark 40 or something). I am sure I was barely aware of war, poverty, disease, the environment if at all, but I am sure I just thought people would figure it out and learn to get along.

I wonder if there are 7-year-olds out there today who have the kind of optimism about the world that I did then. I hope they actually get to see their dreams manifested.

And I hope they can find it in their hearts to forgive us for making it so difficult for them.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🗽🎆 #France is preparing to illuminate the #StatueofLiberty for #America’s 250th anniversary.

The light show will highlight the #statue’s origins as a French gift after the #CivilWar and the #abolition of #slavery. Designed by #Bartholdi and engineered by #Eiffel, the #monument shipped to #NYC in 350 pieces.

@Tengrain For the Constitutionally prescribed general elections, vote 🗳️ for the person you want to be your #USpol representative, regardless of party affiliation, if any. Duh.

If enough patriotic #Americans follow the #PrimaryFromTheCenter #StrategicVoting the corrupt political parties will eventually shrivel up and die. 🙏 ✅

Until that happy day, practitioners can celebrate #July4th with a different spelling!

If you’re wondering what that strange sound has been during this 4th of July it’s the Founding Fathers spinning in their graves.

#Resist artistically!

Took the kids to #KingsIsland yesterday. It was their first time ever to a theme park so they had a great time and we got to cap off the evening with their #July4th #fireworks celebration.

As the #January6th failed #CoupPlotters get their #MAGA #MugShots taken in #FultonCounty jail, @Wikipedia is trolling them with a Proclamation ⬇️ issued by King George III OTD in 1775 about what would go down in #history as the *successful* #July4th (#1776) coup in the American colonies! 😂
