Our American Flag.

Today in a small town near where I live, a young boy rode to school on his bike which had an American Flag on it. On arriving at school they made him take the flag off his bicycle and he had to keep it in his backpack where no one could see it.

Word got around fast and now there are hundreds of people standing in front of the middle school with flags.

I guess no one is proud to display the flag of the country in which we live.

I've heard of these situations happening before. It angers me to no end, considering the fact that That flag is still standing people of the sacrifice of hundreds of LIVES. If anyone doesn't know the story behind that flag, and our national anthem, go to youtube and look up "The story of the star spangled banner". Or I will send a link. It is really powerful, and very touching, and will give everyone a whole new respect for that flag.

It was great. A lot of veterans came on their Harley's with big flags attached to the back. They escorted the kid home that day.

Good. I hope it was a kick in the balls for anyone who disagreed with their actions.

I too hope it was an eye opener.

It will, hopefully, throughout this country. But, things are going to get worse. And that is where we will come in.
