As Much As I Despised The Last President, I Always Stood For My Country's Flag

Thank you for telling us whats in their minds. Do you do any other tricks?

 

Have you knowledge that Kaepernic prayed to GOD on his knee? Do you realize he carries a white family name?

 

We were schooled by the Obama supporters.

 

Most people carry white family names, black and white

 

Frankly, were you to get interested in history, you might also wish to hand to your heirs the flags used in this country since the founding.

I live in CA. I was in the South but 3 months when in the Army. I am not about to be run over by Bigots.

So telling me I am from the South won't fly. I do a lot of things you might not approve. Such as stand tall for freedom.

 

WOW! Two completely unrelated things.

As angry as I was at Bush for the lies that got us into Iraq I always walked my dog on a leash
As much as I hate cauliflower I always wear pants to work.

Gee. This irrelevancy could go on for days!

 

Quite true. My point is he also has a White dad. And a White mom and white siblings.

 

Because that is what the flag means to me. I was in China standing outside the US Consolate on a rainy afternoon with a Chinese mother and daughter. Her daughter had just been turned down for a visa and was crying on the sidewalk. The street had many people applying for a visa and sidewalk lawyers peddling advice on how to get a visa. The mother asked me to go in and try to arrange a second interview. This I knew was impossible and I told her. She said

"You don't understand. It is a different world in there."

I could enter just by flashing my passport to the guard. For everyone else on that sidewalk it might have been a million miles away. But it was my home and I could enter at will.

 

Why do Democrats shun all responsibility over Iraq and that war?

Bush did no more than continue the claims made over the years by Clinton and many other Democrats.They even told him to go to war.

 

sometimes the level of ignorance displayed is simply breathtaking.

 

Better? Or is the facts you dont like?

 

Did you feel that breeze?

That was the point going way over your head.

 

That rush? It was the hurricane of my post blowing off the wig.

 

just more right wing hate

. . . . But it is MORE absurd to claim that kneeling is NOT a gesture of respect.

 

I think it's absolutely hilarious that both of the graphics that you have posted have grossly misrepresented the percentage of whites killed by whites, which is about 80% of white homicide victims.

 

Link, please.

Based on that info, it looks like about 84% of homicides with white victims were committed by white offenders.

 

The anthem isn't the flag.

No I just don't share your euro white nationalist persepctive. My nation is my home BECAUSE of its values, not my accident of birth.

It wasn't ham handed at the time. But since you weren't following the reaction to a seemingly endless stream of unarmed black men dying at the hands of the police I guess you totally missed this last year.

IT WAS TRUMP THAT DECIDED TO MAKE THIS A NATIONAL ISSUE BY THROWING RED MEAT TO HIS BASE IN ALABAMA .

Its not like twitler doesn't have a major natural disaster on his hands, or a major healthcare bill with a couple feet in the grave, or a nutbar North Korean with nukes and even more sensitive, egotistical and divorced from reality as trump himself to deal with.

Nah its all about a black man "disrespecting the nation". Yeah, that's the ticket. What a pathetic little man he is.

 

This is too good to not get a bump.

There's an old saying, If you don't like it. Leave it.....

 

So friggin what? That doesn't diminish the serious AMERICAN problem of gross injustice of unarmed men being shot by police officers and the disproportionate number of those men being black.

It doesn't diminish the fact that TRUMP poked the bear, not the other way around. Seems he gets good ratings amongst his base when he's seen defending national icons against the evil leftists, and lord know he needs some good news these days, what with a ginormous natural disaster that has more than 3 million americans without power, a looming final defeat of his "great healthcare bill" and a nutbar with nukes in NK to deal with. He sure does know how to "squirrel" both the media and his base.

 

Only cowards run away. A true patriot stays and fights. Funny how that escapes those that use that ol' sayin' - jus' sayin'.

 

You be liking those dog whistles, doncha?

I mean no offense when I ask this. Are you a closet bigot or openly one like me?
