    Well, in my country, half of us don't believe the virus is dangerous, even though it's now killed more Americans than WW1. So I'm not going anywhere near a bar in a long. time. I can have beer delivered, I have a hundred bottles of wine, and plenty of hard liquor.

    Actually, the Declaration was basically finished on 2 July, 1776, they spent 2 more days on some final wording .
    The 4th was just the day that the Continental Congress approved the final draft. It wasn't actually signed until 7 August.

    Somehow I'm sure that this is no longer taught in school. Everybody should be able to pass a simple history/civics test before being allowed to vote.
