I have a name for it: 1775 disease. The United States of America wasnt born of the pretty words from Jeffersons pen in the declaration signed on July 4, 1776. It was born of anonymous gunfire at Lexington on April 19, 1775. And ever since, we have carried our violent nativity within us like a virus, a virus that lies dormant from time to time only to break out again and again. (excerpt) — Sarah Vowell for The New York Times Our Violent Nativity Day of Note: On this date in 1775 the shot heard round the world rang out in Lexington, Massachusetts.
