Democracy in Action

Democracy in Action - Since today is the Fourth of July - America's 240th birthday - I'm posting several photos that have been posted here before. These show different shots of democracy in action. No, they're not all-inclusive by any stretch, but it's a start. Have a great Fourth - and stay safe!
