I agree with some of what you said and disagree with some. Yes, America has issues we can complain about as has been the case in every generation. And there are politicians, pundits and others who will make money and fame off of inflaming those issues. Sometimes I'm depressed but at other times hopeful. And I will ALWAYS in every circumstance stand for the flag. The flag represents the best of what the American ideal can be, not the bad actions of those who choose to do wrong. It deserves respect.
