[YankoLive]

[buster67671]

bravo well done

[scrosnoe]

The Traveling Liberty Bell will be in Branson Missouri this week to honor our Veterans at the Veteran's Home Coming Week! Hope to see you there~ see R3publican[dot]com for more information

[serenolefire]

I, too am a veteran... and I've ridden with the Patriot Guard Riders on 3 rides now. Two in Louisiana to honor recently fallen soldiers and one to escort the Vietnam Wall on part of it's journey across the panhandle of Florida on it's journey across America. While the bell was not a part of the two services in Louisiana, (I wish they had been), the Ten Commandments most definitely belong right beside that bell. Our country was founded on the principles of Christianity, NO other faith.

[ems97219]

Scrosnoe, thank you for posting this. It is deeply touching - and I think the Ten Commandments are very appropriate next to this replica of the Liberty Bell. Our founding fathers were God fearing men, but sadly, that is no longer being taught...

My daughter is serving in the Navy, and this video brought tears to my eyes.

Thank you for YOUR service to the fallen soldiers whose funerals you attend... God bless you!

[Mothedog1]

Patriotism porn!  KrigareavGud got it right. !0 commandments/church and state?

[flintstone9812]

The man I mentioned is Frank Buckles, and he is 109 years old now. He lived on a farm about 600 feet off the highway. We lined the drive with flags when he came home from his haircut. He didn't walk at all that day, but he begged for a ride in one of the motorcycle side cars. Two guys lifted him in and away the old guy went. He was ecstatic. When they came back people asked if he liked the ride, he said. "We didn't go fast enough." He rode motorcycles in WW I. The bell was incredible..

[flintstone9812]

I had no idea the bell would be in WV when Patriot Guard honored a man for his service. He was having a 105 year birthday. The man had served in WW I after lying about his age. Delivered messages and later chauffeured Gen. Pershing. During WW II he was a civilian in the Philippines, was captured by Japanese and became a POW. There must have been 150 PG riders there and even more flags. Amazing. I got to ring that bell. Awesome.

[Fenwyck]

ok, it is wonderful that he does this....but the 10 Commandments have no place there, as not everyone is of that faith....THAT bothers me.

And as to the comment below, "we only go where we are invited".....hello? Let me knbow when the shuttle lands. We were not invited to Iraq. And Vietnam was dumped on us by the French....

I am a Vet, and am proud to have served my country. I was one of the lucky ones, I am still here.

[scrosnoe]

@Fenwyck it is possible to honor soldiers and our fallen without being in favor of the undeclared 'war' on terror; my comment here about going where invited was in reference to the bell and where the bell goes.

The Ten Commandments belong with the bell because without properly embracing moral law there is no real liberty. Our Creator knows what is best for us and lovingly gave us the law as a schoolmaster in order that we might know of our need for Him.  If you want real freedom; embrace Him

[FactsAreStubborn]

@Fenwyck I very humbly thank you for your service.

Regarding the Ten Commandments, you note that "not everyone is of that faith". Don't the Commandments align with the value system on which this country was founded, which is Judeo-Christian? Their inclusion with the Bell seems very fitting and embraces no specific denomination or particular church.

Some of us would argue that it is the effort to divorce our society from such underpinnings that have led us into grave trouble.

[janet060948]

I have tears in my eyes watching this. What a great thing for this man to do.

[whynottalk]

Watch and weep. Thank God for American patriots.

[Mrphilharmonic]

This guy has to be some kind of hero!! WONDERFUL!

How long before Obama puts a stop to this too!!???

Patriots UNITE!!!!

[birdnerder]

Thankyou for the post...and I will still thank everyone for their service as I respect that individual for what big or little sacrifice they made. God Bless you and May you have the blessing and not the curse Amen! Something good is hoped for out of something ugly !

[Dumptruck4Lif]

is that u karen???????scrosnoe???????

[JuniperSage1]

[Minervasunshine]

[Minervasunshine]

o wow.  this is a BEAUTIFUL video.

thank you, thank you, thank you, mr. hall.

wife of a vietnam veteran

[KrigareavGud]

As a veteran...I am deeply disturbed by the consistent lack of knowledge that I come across everytime someone wants to thank me for my service...I ask what service? Was I really protecting our freedom being sent overseas to fight a war over the financial prospects and imperialistic control our wonderful bankers lust after? Why do we americans still believe these phony wars have anything to do with freedom? It's about time now we stop being automatrons and start educating ourselves.

[scrosnoe]

thanks for speaking up you are among friends here!

[Lyn1432]

@KrigareavGud I understand, but my thanks is to show my appreciation for the sacrifice that you ARE/(were) willing to make, regardless of the merit of the reason to be in a stituation. You are FAR more brave, and more of a man (or woman) than MOST of our people in political power.

[omt07]

@KrigareavGud Is a principle and moral obligation, whether is right or wrong; we responded when our government needed us. You can always say no.

[scrosnoe]

we only go where invited

[geekgurl2000]

never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee...

[tsarnikolas2]

As the daughter, wife and sister of American veterans, I thank you Mr. Hall!!

[notparistexas]

What's with the ten commandments tablets in the trailer?

[scrosnoe]

Real freedom from the bondage of sin and death comes from understanding that the law was given as a school master and who the son of man sets free is free indeed.

Freedom after all isn't really free now is it; it is absolutely priceless!

[jerzgirlnfl]

Thank you Mr. Hall for what you do. Thank you to all our men and women serving to protect our country. God Bless you all.

[3413mom]

You are a true American. Thank you for honoring our fallen countrymen

[rw43502]

Thank You for all your time and compassion for the Lost Veterans you are honoring!

[wulfesinger67]

Thank you for laying or fallen to rest.

[Daddynew]

What a tremendous tribute to our fallen.

[Reiuxcat]

Thank you Mr Hall.

[JnBoy8]

Talk about a true patriot! That's real America, right there.

[224clb22]

I love this man!

[airforcewife01]

Thank you for your patriotism.

God bless my husband in Afghanistan and all the men and women serving at home and overseas. We love and support you all.

[TheLDLady]

God bless all our military men and women this holiday season, may we never forget the sacrifices they make for us all.

[1941pearl]

By reading, all of your words, your hearts at the moment, and many times before, weep, as mine is again. Thankyou to all who served,

[bosnmate820]

To the troops coming from or going to the sandbox, this old vet salutes you. To my fellow Veterans, thank you for your service and to Veterans of Vietnam, Welcome home, My brothers.

Mr. Hall, you are a true Patriot, Sir! Thank you from a Patriot and Patriot Guard Rider. I salute you. You may not be a Veteran but you serve in your own way to honor our war dead, perhaps more so than many of our Veterans or self proclaimed Patriots. God Bless You and the USA

[slusmith]

To all our wonderful troops out there........ we love you and appreciate you very much!!

[gmonee50]

this is great..see this is what the media fails to show!!!

[slusmith]

I loved this.. thanks for sending it to me... everybody needs to see this and really appreciate what our troops do for us... wonderful.....

[ppchute50]

To all Veterans here, I say thank you. You and your fallen brothers are the supreme representation of the final words of our magnificent founding document;— And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

Thank you Mr.Hall for your selfless example of true American patriotism, and love tor these, our fallen heroes. May God Bless America, again.

[deb2wen153]

God Bless you Mr. Hall....

[RichardEGagne]

I just hope that this guy can see or has read the responses here. I wish more Americans were like this guy where most of us are looking for what we can get for free. This guy out of the kindness of his heart is simply giving. Dont know what it is that motivates you but (GOD BLESS YOU). And thank you very much

[gnm109]

He's a patriot. The Bell is a fine trubute to our fallen heroes. It stirs the soul, Perhaps it will awaken the spirit in others like him,.

[lorenalanina]

Thank you, Sir! May our Heavenly Father shed blessing on you for such a sweet and noble service that honors such a powerful sacrifice.

[merlinvestibule]

Thank you David Hall.

[bkernrh]

May God Bless patriots like him. So few around today realize how and why we are a free country and the sacrifice required to keep it that way.

[tommyde8]

Thank you, Mr. Hall.

[darlindaddy]

Thank You and may the Great Spirit look over you

[kburkard1]

"For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for thee... " The words of John Donne, written so many years ago, embody the heartfelt acknowledgment that each of us will someday meet our end. To have the lives of our soldiers commemmorated in such an awesome and reverent way is a balm to the hearts of the bereaved. Thank you, Mr. Hall, for your service to those who serve.

[ntmid8r333]

David Hall- Thank you for the support you give. How many other American's do this for their fellow American's? Thank you for your time, effort, patriotism, and compassion for a fallen comrade.  God bless America.

[Brantoc]

How can anyone put rude comments about this? I mean, this guy is a normal person who is inspiring.

It flies in the face of logic to even conceive of a rude comment.

[ZacktheHeat2]

it brought back the memory when I first saw the LIBERTY BELL in Philadelpha

[elainecleo]

This is beautiful, thank you for every thing you do.

[peck1959]

This man is true patriot!

[cathyoc54]

AWESOME VIDEO. Thank you for posting.

[thiznametaken]

How about those Mn. Vikings.

[planeguy141]

thiznametaken: You are an ignorant, arrogant, pig headed moron. Somebody should drop you in the middle of Afghanistan and let you try to survive... Then you MAY have some appreciation of the freedom that these med and women died to give you.

[backinbahrain]

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I cannot say enough about the value of your service.

S.D.M -- Baghdad, Iraq

[scrosnoe]

Please add comments about what the liberty bell has meant to you - I think that something "cracks" for liberty every time the bell tolls. It is important to ring the bell when you have the opportunity to do so. This Liberty Bell honors our fallen heroes often and was present for both of my parents graveside memorials. David Hall is tireless in his effort to serve the Lord and minister to many in times of great distress and loss and pain. The Liberty Bell tolls for liberty and justice for all.

[sgbaird]

America needs more people who value duty, honor and country as do those servicemen who sacrificed their lives. We need less of the anti-social bickering that is evident in the posts here. This shows nothing but a lack of maturity and respect on their parts.

[scrosnoe]

I have deleted the rude comments and vile language in this thread. Thanks to all who commented about them and notice to all that that was done. I saw no constructive reason to leave them here.  Thank you for your comment in that vein as well!/sc

[organist777]

Personal sacrifice to honor others... we need more people like this.

[armypapa]

Thank you David for what you do-just awesome! Be well sir.

Armypapa

[greentchr]

Thanks, David. You give inspiration.

[ms960]

Very moving.  Thank you for honoring our fallen soldiers.

[jihuc]

God Bless each and every man and woman (past, present and future) who serve this Great Nation and who do so without hesitation and with complete selflessness! This man is among the most honorable people I have ever seen. God Bless him and those who's lives were lost and his bell tolls.

We should all fight for what America really stands for - not for what is being pushed down upons us by our current leaders.

[klassykathy1]

GOD BLESS YOU ALL THAT SUPPORT OUR TROOPS.....very honorable!  I visited the Liberty Bell in Pa years ago, I was VERY disappointed. The area surrounding it was un-groomed and very much in disarray.

[fortehwinbbq]

So genuine, so impressive. God bless him as he is a blessing to others - understanding their level of pain, and showing honor towards others.

[carriwithac]

wow

[mexflwr33]

Thank you for coming to my brothers funeral in El Paso, Texas...Stg. Jaime Gonzalez. God Bless you and all you do to remember those who gave their lives.

[txstoryteller]

God bless David Hall!!!!!!!

[lyden2006]

All Christians, Muslims, and Jews should watch this video.

watch?v=zoTV8khNxHg

[texaschristian]

David Hall is a good man, and a true patriot. Special thanks to him for *everyone* he honors and remembers with his traveling liberty bell. The sound of that bell will be with me forever.

[FreedomIsPopularLLC]

David we met down in Crawford, then again at the Straw Poll and recently in Oklahoma. Thank you for your patriotism. Curtis

[PizzaGod]

Thanks to David Hall for supporting our fallen hero's, Liberty and supporting Ron Paul too.

[Sormand62]

Awesome video. What a guy! This country would be absolutely great with more people like this man.

[scrosnoe]

Special thanks to David Hall and his family for all they do to support our troops and our nation. FLL/sc
