We draw lines in the sand, then we make war over the lines.

Its not about the lines or the flags.

The symbol is not the issue.

The inappropriate behavior is.

There is nothing wrong with a flag.

There is something wrong with us.

The reason this story made the paper is because it sparks an emotional response
in the grunting an pissing kind of personality.

We are not superrior because we live in one country or another.

I personally do not care for flags of any sort.
There is just way to much of a freudian connection going on with that particular symbol. And I do not care to be a part of that.
