I meant that some holidays are given a holiday designation outside of their country, but the fourth of july is not, that I know of. I never said it shouldn't be a holiday. I, personally, don't celebrate any holidays much like most of my family. I'm aware no one here is expecting non-americans to know about it, but that is not the majority thought. Almost every american I've ever run into has assumed I know and hold deep respect for the fourth of july and become vehemently offended when I don't celebrate it. I have also experienced the same reason from other people of other countries.
