Boy yall are fast, beat me to the topic again. I agree with just about everything said so far. This would be a great time to remove the ugly veil of political correctness that we have being living under for the last 8 years. It is truly a sad day when Americans will not stand behind their country in this time of crisis. Yet, I am a little torn because as JPIVEY said, and I agree "at least we live in a country that allows these kind of opinions". I don't always agree with what the U. S. does, 'guilty until proven innocent when dealing with the IRS, over taxed while the government is buying $300.00 toilet seats, kickbacks to politicians by large corporations, sending money and aid abroad when we have homeless and hungry people in our own country'. But overall I feel that I live in the best country in the world. I fly the flag to show support not only for my country, but for the people that were killed in the terrorist attacks, and their grieving families. Originally my flag was put up at half mast, which in my eyes symbolizes a loss of lives. The U. S. is still the most unopressed country in the world, and you would be hard pressed to find another country that gave $132,000,000 (yeah, thats million) dollars to Afghanistan so far this year; a country that harbors some of the worst terrorists in the world. So in the end what does this all mean; it means I'd like to talk to one of those fire fighters and let him know that it's ok and I understand, then punch him in the mouth and tell him patriotic Americans don't take that crap.:p
