I mean, if you were that fond of America and had that many flags waving before, then so be it, but if it takes a tragedy to make you proud of your country, that's a problem.

Lol, I felt the same way. I live in a small rural town in Kentucky. Ya know where'n everybody roun' hare talks like tdhiss sorta? Anyway, I don't. Thank god I escaped the accent and slurring of speech somehow. Anyway, like 1 day after 9/11 everyone in the freaking county had flags all over there houses and cars. And I was all like, hmm... Even like the grocery bags at store began to have pictures of flags on them...! But it wasn't like I could voice my opinions here. It's rural Kentucky, here you have to hate homosexuals, other races, and say by god a lot, or you get beat up. Yeah so don't come to Rural Kentucky and talk about how you think all the patriotism is fake. It's like faux patriotism man!
