In the U.S. state of Ohio, Independence Day doesn’t mean freedom, it means police state thuggery!
The mayor of Lakewood, Mike Summers, said it best when he revealed how much the U.S. has changed. Instead of liberty and justice for all, the new mantra is “Safety is our first priority.” (way to go, Ohio!)
On 14 June 2013 the city issued the following totalitarian martial laws:
- All generators, propane and gas fueled grills are prohibited.
- All tents and shelters are prohibited.
- Police will be conducting searches of bags and coolers for reasons of public safety.
- No alcoholic beverages are permitted at any time throughout the year.
- No personal fireworks. This includes novelty fireworks like sparklers.
- No dogs or pets of any kind will be permitted in the park on July 4th.
- The skate park, tennis courts, basketball courts and Kid’s Cove playground will be closed at 7:00 p.m.
