After getting a chance to watch a little news, I was completely disgusted to see that the schools in the area where I'm stationed in California have banned American Flags in some of the schools!!! Then I hear this is not the first, that schools in Colorado, Texas, and possibly New York and others did the same thing. What the hell is our education coming to when they ban the symbol of our country that so many men and women have died protecting!?!?!!!
Do they forget that it is what this flag symbolizes that causes so many to flock to our country whether legally or illegally? I find this totally absurd and dispicable! I have told my wife to send our boys to school with the shirts they own that proudly display the American Flag. No school is going to tell my family they cannot be proud of being an American!!
This is the ONLY flag that should be flown in this country. I have no problem with people being proud of their heritage. I hope that they are.
This all started b/c of the Congress and Senate trying to criminalize illegals.But when you live in America, be proud to be American!! If you aren't, then go back wherever it is you came from be it Mexico, China, Africa, Germany, wherever. But the flag and your country of origin do not belong with the fact that you are AMERICAN.
I have many friends who come from Mexico and ancestral background from Africa. Many of them completely agree. Now the libs will come back at me and call me a racist, but then thats the attack that libs come up with whenever you speak against illegals. Before you go saying it's the republicans that are the problem with this situation, it was the libs that started it by not allowing the law enforcement to do it's job and deport the illegals. It all started with the dems coming up with this "feel good about being bad" politically correct crap.
Sorry I am rambling now, but this stuff ticks me off. I haven't been serving my country for over 20 years to have my country's education system piss all over the flag I fight for.
