It really is
that simple.
The American
flag stands for a set of ideals, and for all of the people of this nation, as
imperfect as any of us may be. The flag
and the national anthem are there to remind us of those ideals and of the
importance of unity and patriotism, and when we stand we do so to reaffirm our
commitment to all of those things.
When did
Americans stop being mature enough to understand this? Too many Americans are crybabies and
attention seekers who are incapable of looking past their own grievances. It’s disheartening to be sure, but I’ll stand
for the American flag in spite of the crybabies and in spite of those who try
and tear this nation down, because honoring the flag is the only way to keep
the ideals alive.
That’s all
for now.
