In American society, or any democratic society for that matter, freedom is so often taken for granted and overlooked. Do you demonstrate your freedom, patriotism, or enthuiasm for the country in which you live? i.e. - voting, display of the flag, actively involved in the community? Just like to get your opinions; we've been debating it in school, and I'd like to present some other points of views. (and no, it's not homework, I'm just interested)
I'm proud to be an American, and I'll vote as soon as I am able, (in about a year or so).... |

QUOTE(Hell-Rell @ Sep 19 2005, 5:54 PM) Oh my god, you don't know how annoyed you just made me by saying that. My mom is black, my mom and I often argue about slavery. She says that white people took advantage of black peoples ignorance. But considering that there were more black people then white I consider it black peoples stupidity that they just gave themselves over to white people for some god damn cellotape and shiny buttons. Onto topic: I use my rights; I pee on the floor at public toilets and throw coconuts at torists! |
