i fly it proudly
all year......... except in freezing snow or ice storms
because there's American's out there in battles
dying daily....and it flies to honor them
and those that have fallen before them.

What the hell is the difference if we put up the American flag or not ???
Our most likely next president dosen't believe in the flag !
On top of that, close to 1/3 in this country dosen't speak english !

Patriotism?
I sent a buddy of mine who's stuck in Sadr City a bunch of books, some random silly things GOLD BOND AND FOOT POWDER.
Thats patriotism.

Likwid....I was talking about the most simple, basic act....to simply observe by showing the colors...thats all. I was not saying that I am the worlds greatest American or anything......just a simple act. To those who do more, I commend you....I would pat you on the head if I could Likwid.
As far as being "schooled" Spence......I acknowledged Kevins point which is more than most do on here! Usually most act like anyone elses opinion is wrong....when after all....it is an opinion and I respect others opinions.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

You're confusing friendship with patriotism but an admirable gesture anyway you look at it. |

I'd have to agree, but it's still a good act.
We don't fly a proper flag, but do have a US Flag piece of artwork hanging outside next to our front door. Serves the same intent of remembering and respecting our independence, which despite government intrusions into our lives, we still do enjoy.
The other week my neighbor put up a real flag off of his deck. My only comment was if I was going to be picking it up off of the ground every other week like his last flag. I think I got the point across.

Money better spent on him and his unit than on a silly flag.

Flag can be flown around the clock with no illumination during time of war...

That was very nice of you LIKWID, and I agree with your form of patriotism. And everyone elses.
Thank you Kevin D. |
