I'll hate myself for asking, BUT.
Varus, What is it exactly that makes you so proud to be an American.
Before you call me stupid or liberal or retarded or ask me why I hate America. Know that I love America because ideally this is a place anybody can come to, work hard, and prosper regardless of race or religion. That I'm proud of the young men and women that VOLUNTEER for the military, to protect the rights of people that they don't even agree with even though the pay is laughable (i know i've been there) and the praise short lived. I'm proud that there are people in this country that know that to live in a society is to work to better not just yourself but that society as well. (This includes everybody in it.. notice the constituion does note that the job of the goverment is to protect the wellbeing of it's citizens)
What I'm not proud of are the people in this country, and all over the world for that matter who do nothing but spread fear and hate. Of American politicians all the way back to Jefferson (Who just like his protege 200 years later, left the office of governor after only 2 years.) and Hamilton careing more about their own interests than they do about the people they've been elected to represent. These people are nothing but dividers, you are nothing but a divider.
To everybody but Varus
Sorry for the long post.
Edit for a bit of clarity in this merky world.
