Christine, the article of that girl refusing to pledge allegiance to the flag....what an ignorant girl. We are America, we who live on United States soil. We vote for our representatives. If she is ashamed of being an American, then she is a hypocrite for still living here. The flag is simply a symbol of We Americans, who live on this lower half of the N. American continent. What that ignorant girl was saying by refusing to pledge allegiance to the flag is simply that she hates herself. Whatever..... I say to her, get a life, get psychiatric treatment, or move to Europe where all the good people are and where the history is nothing but good people doing good things to each other.....yah that's it. Europe... DK

btw Christine, nice try on the excuse for why San Franciscans can't give their land back to the Indians. So are you saying that because you San Franciscans chased the Indians off to reservations, that they no longer have claims to the land? Sorta like if I steal something, then it becomes rightfully mine? Even if there aren't any (RFLOL) American Indians living in San Francisco like you say, I'm sure that I could find a few Indians who would be happy to move off their reservation if some of you good-hearted San Franciscans wanted to do the right thing and give them a plot of land in San Fran. Yes I think they would be willing to move back to their native land. I still say that the evidence suggests, as you have proved by saying you can't give your land back, that nobody gives a damn about whatever was done to the Indians. Some liberals do want to say they're sorry, but nevertheless, it's a "sorry, but we're keeping the land that we stole from you". Means nothing except help liberals feel better, doesn't help the Indians one bit. Now if you want to donate money to the Indians so they can go to college, that's good and there's nothing wrong with that. But like I said in the first place, and which you disagreed with: What we did to the Indians through the policy of Manifest Destiny is still what Americans support, and NOBODY is ready to give even one acre of land back, you included. So please, no more false statements about how you "would love to give your land back". DK
