Pam posted something that at first blush, literally made me see red, caused my blood pressure to spike, gave me tunnel vision, sent tingles of anger and hatred up my scalp, and took away my power of speech. See it here.
After my first explosive reaction, I started to rant to Hazel. While I was ranting I realized something: the same Constitution that allows these sycophantic idiots to do what they have done is the same one that I do NOT wish to have an amendment attached to forbidding burning or desecration of the Flag.
Freedom of speech.
The single most powerful and important right enumerated by the Bill of Rights.
That these idiots can actually not see the irony involved in plastering 44’s name and picture on the symbol of our country, the same flag that has been burned and pissed on by protesters who are strangely allowed to continue breathing because the United States doesn’t shoot protesters, is not lost on ME, however. These sub-literate mouth breathers seem to think that the United States hasn’t done anything for them. They don’t understand that just by being here, they are given a chance that no other subject or citizen of any other country is given. They have given over their sense to a cult of personality led by an empty suit. They have false expectations that will not be met, sad little Liberal agendas that will not unfold according to plan, and oddly enough, no idea that the rest of world ISN’T suddenly going to love us all and put down arms. But they have the right to be that stupid.
As for agendas, mine has become simplified greatly: protect my family from the vandals-including the ones that run our school systems who are trying to brainwash our kids, call these people out publicly on their idiocy at every opportunity, make sure I only give my dollars to politicians or companies who have the same sensibilities I do, and to await the day when the first crack in the ice appears.
They are already putting 44’s face on our flag; how much longer until they put it on giant banners hanging from government buildings? And when they start, I’m pretty sure us bitter clingers will have something to say about it.
Meanwhile, if anyone can figure out who printed those flags, please let me know so we can hold THEM up ridicule.
