You come to this country as a refugee. Are given sanctuary, food, housing allowance, free medicine, free education and enjoy all the benefits of living in America yet are offended by the flag of the United States? As refugees, you should be thinking you hit the genetic lottery being not only allowed in to the United States but given freedom and dignity that are enjoyed today because men and women of our United States military died or were maimed defending that freedom.
I am sick of people apologizing for this country and afraid of offending people because of a our United States flag.

A quick guess from me. The refugees didn't know enough to be offended. The liberals were offended for them and told them they were offended.

The Valley High School students' USA-themed attire was seen as offensive because some of the rival school's players were from refugee families. "Any normal person, any educated person can look at that and think what the hell are these kids thinking," said Valley High School coach Morgan Wheat. 


And people wonder why Trump won.

Just when you think you've seen it all.

"Sorry about celebrating our country" :FU:

This is america. My doctor told me there was something wrong because i piss red white and blue, i told him to shut his commie mouth. If you get offended for someone being patriotic and supporting the country that they live in, then whoever gets offended please for the love of god, just go to canada, europe, mexico, or wherever else america is not.

I doubt it was the refugees that found it offensive.
