@zombieregime2 ай бұрын
The cannons during the star spangled banner were british being fired at the american fort, in order to bring the flag pole down, as the lowering of the flag was a signal the americans surrendered. Come dawn the flag pole still stood, though at an odd angle. It had taken multiple direct hits from British cannon fire. Every time it fell the men of the fort rushed out to prop it back up. By the end of the assault the pole was stood by the pile of bodies at its base. So no, the star spangled banner does not need cannons.

think of it, victory of 1812 was a military one over militant, totalitarian liberalism ... 209 years ago the piece written around 140 years ago to commemorate that triumph, be it timely. 1870s Tsarist Russia had problems with another offspring of modernity, communism, which worked its way as Russia bled dry in WW1, communist skum lost everything and gave imperial Germans peace that cost Russians dearly, not only in lives but also in country. Another offspring of modernity, fascism/nazism would show up on their doorstep - even as the country was in bolshevik communist grip. Germans were gripped in that national socialism thing. What a bloodbath ww2 was nazism basically out, after 89 commies also out, liberalism - the root of our existential problems of today. Liberalism basically erased/rewrote how the world functions to most people and it is empty, wrong, evil. 1812 commemorates victory over evil. Tsar, family was executed in 1917, just 105 years from then by people possessed by thought that came along the french liberalism. What a mess. As if that was not enough, 20 years from falls of empires all the madness happened. I seriously think that the totalitarianism presented in liberalism make it impossible to coexist with anything, because liberalism takes priority. I like it how US political circles present the only options as reps and dems, when both are liberal. 1812 was a victory, worthy of commemorating. Not just for the fancy bombastic cannon play, which I surely do appreciate, but the triumph over that perversity is what deserves to be known. Cheers from E. Europe. God bless you.

If anything it shows they had preparation in the case there was a need for extra possibly for a screw up , and even more probable just to give something for their Sargent to do besides be a human statue. Possibly pre planned to give that impression. What are men and women of the armed services do to perfection would fry your brain if you saw or understood the detail of their jobs mentally and physically.
