    People taking pride in being born in a specific place to a specific religious ideology and political opinion is part of the problem though.

    The people I see flying confederate flags are more likely to be people that I highly doubt have ever contributed to society in a way that they should be proud of.

    Big deal, they were born in the south. Why are they proud of that? What exactly are they proud of? History does not favor them with much to be proud of and the one icon they use to show their pride is the banner of a failed state that fought against its own countrymen; a state that built its foundation on slavery…

    You get to be proud if your country or your people are a force for good in the world; doing things worth being proud of. Being proud that your parents were from Alabama and hooked up one night and you just so happened to be their spawn makes no sense. This applies no matter where you’re from.

    Man, you’re a real insufferable cunt. Lambasting the “high road” while parking your ass firmly in the middle of it. Unreal.

    [Edit] Isn’t it funny when people act like asshokes on the internet, get rebuked for it and then delete their comments?

    If you weren’t willing to stand behind your comments why did you post them in the first place? This is some weak ass revisionist behaviour.
