Message | Because blind, forced patriotism detracts from civic responsibility, which is real patriotism. Instead of honoring symbols, lets work to make the country better. When one worships symbols, songs, etc, they don't work as hard to improve the country. |

Random quote: "When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, 'Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!'" - Martin Luther King Jr. |
