My Country Tis of Thee

Do you think that should happen in america too?
 
^^^And how the ones on the left are NOT.

You are welcome.
We on the left don't try to take people's rights away from them while waving an american flag and telling everyone the fbi and doj are corrupt.

No one's rights have been "taken away" unless of course, they should. Evidence shows that the FBI and DOJ ARE corrupt.

Why is the left always wrong?
 
I disagree. I fly a flag on my porch. I'm not a nationalist.
This is the problem with stereotyping, it catches all the fish in the pond, even the ones you can't eat. Speaking strictly for myself I have never met a real Christian
or a real patriot who felt the need to wear their beliefs on their sleeve.

Is this the same kind of evidence that proves the election was stolen from trump?

Show us the evidence.

I don't wear my beliefs on my sleeve for sure and flying the flag shows neither patriotism or nationalism. Its symbolic of my nationality. When in Honduras, we flew a Honduran flag on our home as well.
 
When I was very young I thought this would be a good National Anthem.

Then I found out it was written to the tune of the British anthem "God Save our (King/Queen)."

I'm good with the Star Spangled Banner.
Um...

The Star-Spangled Banner

Origin of the melody​

Long assumed to have originated as a drinking song, the melody was taken from the song “To Anacreon in Heaven,” which first surfaced about 1776 as a club anthem of the Anacreontic Society, an amateur mens’ music club in London. Written by British composer John Stafford Smith—whose identity was discovered only in the 1970s by a librarian in the music division of the Library of Congress—the song was sung to signal a transition between the evening’s orchestral music concert and after-dinner participatory singing. Its original lyrics were written in six verses by the Anacreontic Society’s president, Ralph Tomlinson, as an ode to the Greek poet Anacreon, who is asked for and—after some objection by the gods—grants his blessing to mingle Venus’s myrtle with Bacchus’s grapevine in their brotherhood:

To Anacreon in Heaven, where he sat in full glee,
A few sons of harmony sent a petition,
That he their inspirer and patron would be;
When this answer arrived from the jolly old Grecian:
Voice, fiddle, and flute, no longer be mute,
I’ll lend you my name and inspire you to boot
And besides I’ll instruct you like me to intwine
The myrtle of Venus with Bacchus’s vine.

 
Symbols are for patriots as well. Your comment reads like you think patriotism isn't national pride but pride in government. I'm a patriot but have no pride in federal government. My pride is for my country and its people.

Without the democratic republic that we have, you and I might not be here today. The right so hates the federal government, until of course they control it or one of their states needs federal money or some kind of disaster help. Then they become part of the united states.
 
I don't hate federal government. I want it to be smaller, less corrupt and more competent.
 
If it's a rock it will be better than whatever you folks put up.

So, by that reasoning, a rock>Biden>Trump.

Okay, I think I can agree with that.
 
Who are you gonna run? The big orange thing again, or the goon from Florida?
My fingers are crossed for the goon from Florida.

Your reasoning is faulty. Biden is NOT better than Trump, unless you give extra points for screwing up the country.

He kicked Trump's loser ass in the election, which is the only standard that counts.
