Patriotism…

We used to view our sports heroes as patriots, but with this new wave of kneeling for the Star Spangled Banner, I can only be sad for them and disappointed in them.
They took a verse that is no longer even sung, a forgotten verse as it were, and used it to make a very unpatriotic statement. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for individualism, but for God’s sake we’re talking about patriotism and the flag here.

The verse that they are so up in arms about isn’t even about slavery, it’s about the British forcing slaves to fight for them against America, nothing more nothing less. But as with most liberals these people have blown it all out of proportions and are trying to get everybody upset about something that is nothing more than a misunderstanding.

There are precious few people in this country that we can look up to as patriots anymore, with the exception of our military, and I find that very unsettling and it makes me sad. Where have all our patriots gone? Where have all our greats gone?

Sports heroes used to be the people’s patriots, but now they’re gone. Bring back our patriots.

I’m beginning to think that the reason we have so few patriots is because we have so many liberals. Didn’t used to be that way. It used to be that people didn’t want to accept money from the government, didn’t want a free ride, wanted to work for what the got, and were proud of their achievements. Now, we have illegals coming to this country, not for a better life, but to collect welfare, food stamps, free healthcare and free housing. We have people who were too lazy to learn to read, people with bipolarism, depression, and anxiety collecting disability, nobody wants to work for anything anymore. Liberals just want a nanny state, so that they don’t have to do anything but watch tv all day long, and gripe about everything. If the only way they could get disability or welfare were if they were physically disabled or unhirable,  they would have less time to gripe.

I will never understand why liberals seem to have to make everything about oppression, and get everyone upset. I’m starting to believe that they just don’t have enough going on in their own lives, so they start in on everybody else’s to the point where we’re all upset.

Take the presidential election for example. These people hate Trump so much that some of the things that they did fell under criminal. One woman, I can’t even use the word “Lady”, took a sign with Trump’s picture on it out to the front of her house, in full view of her neighbors, dropped trout and defecated on it. In my mind that was a class free dumpster woman.

Liberals have been making stuff up about him ever since he won the election. When Obama won, did conservatives behave like that? No, we may have been upset, but we didn’t do anything about it, because we knew there wasn’t anything we could do.

We were adult about it.
