Yes, I am an American and proud of it. I like apple pie and ice cream. I stand up for our National Anthem, even sing it although "maybe not in exact key". I believe in the principles that founded this Great Nation, God, Country and Honor. I believe if attacked, then tear'em a new one and hand it back 10 fold. Do what you say and say what you do, no wishy-washy, spit it out and to hell with this political correctness crap. All that is, "is saving a person from embarrassment when they act like an ass and think like one" so you won't hurt their feelings.
I believe that if you work, you get paid a fair wage and you get to eat and have shelter. If you don't work or make the effort to take care of yourself, then to bad for you but I do have a compassionate side, if you can't work and are disabled, you deserve all of the help that I can afford to give you.
Don't burn my flag or attack my neighbors, I will reak havoc on you in retaliation like you have never seen or even dreamt of! I will respect your rights as deemed in our Constitution and I expect you in return to do the same. Deny me my rights and we got serious problems. If I go to church that is my choice just as it is yours concerning your religious beliefs. I will respect your faith as I would expect you to respect mine. Even if you donot have a declared faith, I will respect that too! "BUT" don't force your beliefs on me, that just won't fly! I believe that if you stay on the porch and don't get involved, then you haven't any say so on the issues. Now if you step off that cozy porch and run with the big dogs, then you have a right to be heard and to speak your peice whether I agree with it or not... I will not accept narrow minded skeptic peoples opinions. Especially those who claim that they are experts, yet have never done anything to prove their validity through research and credentials. Any idiot can be a skeptic due to the lack of understanding and most likely thats the reason for their skepticism is a lack of understanding and more than likely a basic education.
Yes, Iam an American and I will treat you fairly, I will help you if asked, I will respect you and your beliefs, I will not take anything that is yours, I will loan you anything that is mine if you need it.
But if you lie, cheat, steal, dis-respect me or mine its time for a serious butt kickin and I really don't care how big you are. Because when its all said and done, you will know that I've been there win,lose or draw!!!
