Proud of your country?

I'm glad I was born here. I wouldn't call that pride though

everyone on the planet is going to speak english, and forget about every other language there ever was

Despite the fact that English is not the most widely-spoken language in the world?

i hear that chinese would be the preferred language to learn.. at least from the movies i watched.

Only because your parents passed the heritage on, if they hadn´t and had totally adapted to the USA way (whatever that is) then what would you now have to be proud of? Just yourself and what you are!

And where in my post was I disputing this?

I prefer to be proud of certain individuals that have come out of this country. Like Guy Fawkes.

Yes, do be proud of a proto-terrorist that wanted to murder a bunch of people with explosives over religious reasons.

Idiot.

I've never quite figured out why he's so celebrated other than because Alan Moore created an anarchist character that wears a Guy Fawkes mask and acts vaguely like him.

because it is cool to kill people who don't agree with you, duh!

The senseless murder of otherwise innocent people with families is always justified by the end

i am proud of the forklift tank guy who took down 7 homes or so also the courthouse... he stood up to injustice and handed his own form of justice that doesnt always fit in what we consider to be lawful.. i wish i knew his name

lol

maybe someday we will be proud of the people who save lives

Yeah, there's no one you can respect more than a guy with a tank and a hitlist.

how about good honest polite cops who do their jobs the right way and put their lifes on the line everyday..

or fire fighters whose sole job is to safe lifes and property..

paramedics and nurses who also save lives and dont get enough credit like doctors do..

these ppl we should be proud of and be treated with respect maybe give them better money and insurance..

also soldiers although we may not agree how our government uses them.. basically ppl who put their lifes on the line and save lifes

ya, generally, and the fact that my nation has those, and good doctors and teachers, are what would make me proud of it

No such thing. Cops exist only to shoot black people and stop college kids from smoking pot.

Sounds like protectionism to me. When you put out fires and save people's lives and stuff you do nothing but encourage them to set their houses on fire later.

Okay "comrade" we'll think about that.

damn, that is true...

if people just learned how to put out their own fires, this unconstitutional regieme of firefighting could be ended...
