HELLO! THIS IS AMERICA!
In Broken Arrow, Oklahoma School officials remove "God Bless America" signs
from schools in fear that someone might be offended.
Channel 12 News in Long Island, New York, orders flags removed from the
newsroom and red, white, and blue ribbons removed from the lapels of
reporters.
Why?
Management did not want to appear biased and felt that our nations flag might
give the appearance that "they lean one way or another."
Berkeley, California bans US Flags from being displayed on city fire
trucks because they didn't want to offend anyone in the community.
In an "act of tolerance" the head of the public library at Florida Gulf
Coast University ordered all "Proud to be an American" signs
removed so as to not offend international students.
This is a wonderful reply from someone who remains anonymous. I agree with
everything this person says.
I, for one, am quite disturbed by these actions of so-called American
citizens; and I am tired of this nation worrying about whether or not we are
offending some individual or their culture.
Since the terrorist attacks on September 11, we have experienced
a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans. However, the dust
from the attacks had barely settled in New York and Washington, DC
when the "politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility
that our patriotism was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is
seeking a better life by coming to America. In fact, our country's
population is almost entirely composed of descendants of immigrants however,
there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and
apparently some native Americans, need to understand.
First of all, it is not our responsibility to continually try not to offend
you in any way. This idea of America being a multicultural community has
served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity.
As Americans, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language, and
our own lifestyle. This culture, called the "American Way" has been
developed over the past 200 years of struggles, trials, and victories by
millions of men and women who have sought and died for freedom.
Our forefathers fought, bled, and died at places such as Bunker Hill,
Antietam, San Juan, Iwo Jima, Normandy, Korea and Vietnam. We speak English,
not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.
Therefore, if you wish to become part of our
society - LEARN OUR LANGUAGE!
"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some off-the-wall,
Christian, Right Wing, political slogan; it is our national motto. It is so
important to our ideals that is engraved in stone in the House
of Representatives in our Capitol and it is printed on our currency.
We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on
Christian principles, founded this nation; and this is clearly documented
throughout our history. If it is appropriate for our motto
to be inscribed in the halls of our highest level of Government, then it is
certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools to teach the
future defenders our great nation what they are defending.
God is in our pledge, our National Anthem, nearly every patriotic song, and
in our founding documents. We honor His birth, death,
and resurrection as holidays, and we turn to Him in prayer in times of crisis.
If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as
your new home where there is no God to love, because God is part of our
culture and we are proud to have Him.
We are proud of our heritage and those who have so honorably defended our
freedoms. We celebrate Independence Day, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, Flag Day
and Washington and Lincoln's birthdays
We have parades, picnics, and barbecues where we proudly wave our flag.
As an American, I have the right to wave my flag, sing my national
anthem, quote my national motto, and cite my pledge whenever and
wherever I choose. If the Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like
Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this
planet because we don't want you contaminating our patriotism.
The American culture is our way of life, our heritage, and we are proud of
it. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we
really don't care how you did things where you came from, if it was so
superior, go home. We are Americans, like it or not, this is our country, our
land, and our lifestyle. What works for us may not work for you and that's
OK just return to where the weather suits your cloths. But don't look for a
Walmart, McDonald's, Malls, Disneylands, Waterparks and most of all freedom.
Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his
opinion about our government, culture, or society, and we will allow you
every opportunity to do so. But once you are done complaining,
whining, and griping about our flag, our pledge, our national motto,
or our way of life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great
American freedom, the right to leave.
If you agree, pass this onto other Americans! It is time to take a stand!
MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA LAND THAT WE LOVE!
PS: Never and I mean NEVER let us catch you burning our flag. |
