If
this flag offends you and you support Colin Kaepernick, then you have no business
staying in the United States America. Betsy Ross did an amazing job depicting the
thirteen colonies that stood up to the most powerful and oppressive empire at
the time-Great Britain. It was true that the sun never set on the empire for
they conquered and enslaved millions over the globe. And then those pesky
colonials said, “Enough is enough” and took a stand. They sacrificed everything
when they singed the Declaration of Independence. They knew their signature put
a rope around their neck if caught and their fortunes would be seized. The
colonist defeated the British and a new country was born. But it didn’t stop
there. The British tried again in 1812 to break us up and failed again. One
hundred and four years later we came to the aid of our arch rival and helped
them and France stop the Huns from the quest to dominate Europe. Twenty-three
short years later, once again we answered the call and came to the aid of our wavering
ally. The Rising Sun and Swastika were on the verge of splitting the world in
two and conquering and enslaving the globe. The United States again rose to the
call and when it was over, became a super power that defeated Imperialism and
National Socialism. Still offended by her flag? Too bad
If
it were not for These United States, there would be no free world. We would not
enjoy the liberties those brave, forty men put on paper so many years ago. Instead we’d be ruled by oppressive regimes that
cared nothing for “We the People.” They only pandered to their own selfless
interests and the wealth of those who they ruled. Still offended by the flag?
Again, too bad!
And
where are we today? In a time where liberal, socialist and communists are doing
everything in their power to apologize and degrade this great country. No
longer are the police or teachers revered. Law and order is no longer the law
of the land, it makes excuses for criminals and villainizes those who try and
uphold the laws of our nation. Our news agency have been infected with the disease
and keep spewing out their biased and skewed ideas of the greatness of
socialism and the evils of conservatism. They have no knowledge of our history
and are doing their best to eliminate our hard-fought independence. They say we
are offending people when he say the “Pledge of Allegiance” place our hand over
our heart when singing the ‘Star Spangled Banner” or flying our flag to show
our patriotism. TOO bad. For those who believe this drivel they need to read
the true accounts of our “Greatest Generation” when they watched our flag go up
over Iwo Jima, Saipan, Okinawa, and the Philippines. Or when the flags were raised
on the California, Tennessee, West Virginia and Maryland. And let us not forget
when “Old Glory” was raised over the ruins of the World Trade Center attack and
still flew proudly at Fort McHenry. Remember that? Still offended. Too bad.
Let’s
also no forget why we paid homage to December 7th and June 6th.
They were watershed moments in our history that propelled us into the most
horrific war of the twentieth century. Why is it we remember these dates so
vividly and yet 9-11 is being swept under the rug? That’s right, we might
offend someone. Too bad.
Today
is July4th, Independence Day for These United States. This should be a day Democrat,
Republican and Independents should stand together and appreciate and honor all
of those who sacrificed their lives so we can celebrate our day of Independence
and yes, that means honoring the Stars and Stripes from Betsy Ross to today.
Still offended? Move.
