11. Hire the best person for the job regardless of race or sex.
12. Be a man who helps raise the kids he creates. (A bit of a repeat for #8, but making sure it applies to me too.)

I bought a couple of patches (US flag) and put them on my favorite jeans jacket (upside down)!
It always gets attention.
One minority guy in the post office asked me, “What's the significance of the flag upside down on your jacket?” He may have been a vet.
I said, “Did you like the last presidential election?”
He hemmed and hawed, but didn't answer. So I said, “Some of us DIDN'T”
Also, a tattooed clerk at the checkout (you know ... the one, with the dirt under her nails, hardware on her face and greasy purple hair) said, “You know you put your flag on wrong?.”
I said, ‘No I didn't”.
Number 4 is the best!
