I disagree. As much as this country has faults, show me a nation on this earth that doesn’t?

This country is unique and beautiful and should be celebrated. We have 364 other days of the year to focus on making it an even better country we should leave at least 1 day of the year to celebrate it’s positives.

I’m open to the date changing, but it should not be removed entirely.

Speak to any immigrant who worked so hard to stay in this country, why they like it more than there home country.

We have many things to be thankful for, let’s take a moment to put down the aggression and rally together as one nation, who did fight side by side, who do care for this country, who are more alike then many would notice.

I beleive having some solidarity would probably go a long way in helping to further relations, to help to work towards righting past and present wrongs. Even in WW2 they stopped fighting in places to share a Christmas meal together (I think it was Christmas)

To abolish it will do nothing more than drive this nation further apart, when we need to be trying as hard as we can to do the exact opposite.
