Yes, I'm a patriotic person. For these people who disgrace the American way and burn our flag and do all of these things... I say, don't live here and disgrace my country. Go live in the Middle East and see how you like it. ↗

I do this real moron thing, and it's called thinking. And apparently I'm not a very good American because I like to form my own opinions. ↗
