I know. Seriously, I didn't think I'd live long enough to see some people feel the need to be apologetic about being patriotic/standing up for the flag/loving their country.

Do you believe there’s even ANY racial injustice in America?

Would you stand up for any entity that treated you as a 2nd class citizen?

There are favored demographics in our society, no doubt. People are free to express their dissatisfaction in that without being unPatriotic.

It’s asinine to say Patriotism and Human Rights are mutually exclusive. If that’s what someone wants, then we hear about it from that old man that was fighting me to get off his lawn in this thread. He’s voting for Patriotism over human rights. That vote isn’t on the ballot....

How so? The United States is the most humane country in the history of the world. Name a country’s citizens that donate to world tragedies more than the US? (unless the Clinton Foundation steals ala Haiti) This generosity and care tends to make folks patriotic.

Do you think the people who are saying black lives matter is unpatriotic want us giving money to other countries?

You’re talking about the same people. Find someone who hides behind “Patriot” that agrees with giving global aid.....I’ll wait here
