Joseph Offutt, 21, has been holding a large American flag outside the Curtis Cullwell Center in Garland, Texas, all day today, hoping to show ISIS and terrorists that the community is still standing strong and not giving into fear.
Offutt's symbolic gesture is a response to a statement ISIS made Monday night claiming responsibility for the failed terror attack on Sunday during an event displaying cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.

Bump.
God bless him!
This is what Texans are made of, folks, and I am damn proud to count myself among them.
two less feral youth on the face of the earth...to quote Martha Stewart, “Its a good thing:
From the article:
“Offutt said he came to the center by himself at noon, but since then, dozens of people have come and gone, helping him carry the flag as well as bringing their own signs in solidarity with him.
He was still standing outside as of 7 p.m. today.
“I haven’t eaten yet, but the way I see it, if the service men and women of our country can make a sacrifice, then I can make a sacrifice, too,” Offutt said. “I’ve never been in so much pain with my arms, but now I got people coming and helping me. It’s a beautiful thing.”
Offutt’s mother Angela Jenkins, 42, told ABC News today she’s proud of her son.
“He has a lot of patriotism and pride in this country, and he wants to let all terrorists know our community is not scared,” she said. “He has a big heart and his pride in this country runs deep.”
Jenkins added that Offutt plans to enlist in the military soon, following the footsteps of many veterans in their family.”
BUMP!
God Bless Texas.
Since Obama doesn’t care when muszzies chant about driving ALL of israel into the sea,
Perhaps we ought to set a goal to drive ALL of CAIR into the sea.
Someone should support him by
holding a large cartoon lampooning
MuhuMAD.
It’s the Mudslime SOB in the White Mosque that will be our biggest problem. And a blackmaled Congress and Supreme Court.
Sorry, but Mohammed was never a prophet.
God bless him!
Hopefully the Muzzie scum learn not the mess with Texas. They seemed to forgot Yamato’s warning that invading the US was a fool’s errand as they would face tens of millions of armed civilians.
Another Freeper on a different thread really said it best, though I forget who:
“Texas. Where Jihadis go to be outgunned at an art show.”
I’ll second that. In one of those nanny states there would be people holding town hall meetings demanding how the government intends to protect them...
Here in TX... young man has it in his heart to go stand up for his country. Proudly.
Thanks for the ping!
