Email I received today.....Take what you like , and leave the rest.......Subject: Fw: Whiners (fwd)
TO WHOMSOEVER! I DON'T KNOW WHO WROTE THIS, BUT THEY DESERVE AN AWARD!
I have to say I am a bit tired of tip toeing around a few peoples
feelings.
God is God no matter what translation you use, so lets quit trying to be
politically correct and just stick to the facts...
If you don't like our flag, our National Anthem, our Pledge Of
Allegiance, our capitalism, if you object to God in our schools, or any
display of Christianity then get a one-way ticket where others think as
you do.
Broken Arrow, Oklahoma School officials remove "God Bless America" signs
from schools in fear that someone might be offended.
Channel 12 News in Long Island, New York, orders flags removed from the
newsroom and red, white, and blue ribbons removed from the lapels of
reporters. Why? Management did not want to appear biased and felt that
our nations flag might give the appearance that "they lean one way or
another".
Berkeley, California bans U.S. Flags from being displayed on city fire
trucks because they didn't want to offend anyone in the community.
In an "act of tolerance" the head of the public library at Florida Gulf
Coast University ordered all "Proud to be an American" signs removed so
as to not offend international students.
I, for one, am quite disturbed by these actions of so-called American
citizens; and I am tired of so-called Americans worrying about whether
or not we are offending some individual or their culture.
Since the terrorist attacks on September
11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of
Americans.
However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled in New York and
Washington D.C. when the "politically correct" crowd began complaining
about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who
is seeking a better life by coming to America. In fact, our country's
population is almost entirely comprised of descendants of immigrants;
however, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our
country, and apparently some native Americans, need to understand.
First of all, it is not our responsibility to continually try not to
offend you in any way.
This idea of America being a multi-cultural community has served only to
dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans, we have
our own culture, our own society, our own language, an our own
lifestyle. This culture, called the "American Way" has been developed
over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men
and women who have sought freedom. Our forefathers fought, bled, and
died at places such as Bunker Hill, Antietam, San Juan, Iwo Jima,
Normandy, Korea, Vietnam.
We speak English, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or
any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society
please learn our language!
"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some off-the-wall,
Christian, Right Wing, political slogan. It is our national motto. It is
engraved in stone in the House of Representatives in our Capitol and it
is printed on our currency.
We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian
principles, founded this nation; and
this is clearly documented throughout our history. If it is
appropriate for
our motto to be inscribed in the halls of our highest level of
Government, then it is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls
of our schools. God is in our pledge, our National Anthem, nearly every
patriotic song, and in our founding documents. We honor His birth,
death, and resurrection as holidays, and we turn to Him in prayer in
times of crisis. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another
part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture
and we are proud to have Him.
We are proud of our heritage and those who have so honorably defended
our
freedoms. We celebrate Independence Day, Memorial Day, Veterans Day,
and Flag Day. We have parades, picnics, and barbecues where we proudly
wave our flag. As an American, I have the right to wave my flag,
sing my national anthem, quote my national motto, and cite my pledge
whenever and wherever I choose.
If the Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then
you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.
The American culture is our way of life, our heritage, and we are proud
of it. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and
we really don't care how you did things where you came from.
We are Americans, like it or not, this is our country, our land, and our
lifestyle.
Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion
about our government, culture, or society, and we
will allow you every
opportunity to do so. But once you are done complaining, whining,
and griping about our flag, our pledge, our national motto, or our way
of life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great
American freedom, the right to leave.
If you agree, pass this onto other Americans!! It is time to take a
stand.
