Move it to a state that is glad the US Exists.
“It was used to store colonial militia weapons
and was searched by the British during the fighting
at Concord’s Old North Bridge on April 19, 1775.
The Senate is considering a similar measure.”

I almost choked when I read that...
Excellent News.
When I was living in Massachusetts I drove to Concord one “Patriots’ Day”. What sticks in my memory was driving behind a National Guard “deuce-and-a-half” expecting to see guys in fatigues riding in the back. What I saw was a truck load of fellas dressed as Redcoats, flintlocks in hand, being taken up to the battle sites for a day of re-enactments. I thought it was great.
Battle Road bump
One man’s Project is another man’s pork. I don’t think the Constitution calls for the House and Senate to raise tax money to support tourist locations.
Rush says, if the private sector will support the project, let it. Charge a fee and if the fee covers the cost then the landmark stands.
I swear, this whole bail out thing has everyone running around trying to get gov’t cash!

Wow. Thanks Pharmboy. "Fighting in the American Revolution began with the famous "Shot heard 'round the world" at Lexington, Massachusetts, on April 19th, 1775." * |

Wouldn’t it be cool if they used the farm in a respectful patriotic movie about the American Revolution?
That’d be very cool.
