All hate, all the time

In an echo of the tradition created by Jefferson, President Barack Obama invited military families on July 4, 2009, for an Independence Day celebration featuring a six-song set from the Foo Fighters. Again in 2016, he opened the gates for the South by South Lawn (SXSL) festival. In partnership with South by Southwest (SXSW), the event converted the entire executive space into a collaborative arts festival, cementing the White House lawn as the nation’s ultimate public forum.

TWITCHY

How DARE Americans celebrate America with strength and competition?! We should be apologizing for being so awesome and racist or something. We don't know; we can't keep these mouth-breathing whiners straight.

It's not just the UFC event that's freaking the haters out; it's everything and anything that is joyous and patriotic. Lights? THEY'RE BLINDING PILOTS (this is BS, BTW)! Fireworks! THAT'S A WASTE OF MONEY. Motorcross? THAT'S TRASHY.

Perhaps if we were tearing down statues, crapping on the sidewalks, and leaving drug needles everywhere, they'd be happier?
