I do not mean any disrespect, but I read the above and well, I can conclude only one thing. I think we both know what that is.
I think that Patriotism and love of America are crucial to any learning environment. Love of country is what makes this nation the best in the world. IMHO a flag needs to be in every school room acroos this country. What eles can I say. I also think the aclu and the nea are destroying this country too but that is another ball of wax.

It sounds to me like you want America to be more like North Korea where love of flag and leader are mandatory for everyone everywhere. I find that position to be in stark contrast to the values that I hold to be truly American.

ACLU and NEA have been around a long time. I don't agree with everything they do, but come on . . . destroying America?

Yes that is another ball of wax. I prefer not to get into it.

One of the things I read about the U.S. that sets it apart from other countries is that here displays of patriotism are by and large voluntary. To me it cheapens the display if it is forced.
