geez. to think I've been wasting all my time at the range so that I can maintain my expert marksmanship rating with the M9 and M16 when all I had to do, according to these guys, was put some more time in on "America's Army"!

not really, true we don't have a country to be patriotic about.

But there's something more patriotic in having subtle pride instead of overt flags all over the place.

i went to New York in the summer to see some relatives and although New York is going to have more flags obviously, i still felt that it was overdoing it. on a twenty minute trip i counted over 400 flags!

btw there is 2 known Welsh flags in New york. One on a shop somewhere near central station and one on my closest relative's house. Go Wales!<span id='postcolor'>

I agree with you on that and i don't mean we should have 5000000 flags in 2 city blocks, but what i mean was that all of a sudden every1 came out with "GOD BLESS AMERICA" and "JESUS LOVES AMERICA" and flags and "THESE COLORS DONT RUN" stickers on every place you went, but before 9/11 no1 had such thing except for the very religous ppl(The same ones that put "I'd rather be praying" on there lisence plate or have 10 different fish things on there rear window/door) SO it was like o, lets all be patriotic now since 2700 ppl died.....lol

BTW - Its not videogames that kill ppl, its parents that dont let there kids play videogames that kills ppl!!!!!!!!!!

Did you really spend 20 minutes counting 400 flags?

I think it's good that people are showing patriotism. And of course people are going to get upset and say "this is overdoing it" or "why werent they showing patriotism before 09/11", who cares what they think.

when you're on the bee line on your own you havn't got a lot to do okay, so i counted stuff.

"no american will be more than six minutes away from a big mac" YUCK!

i wish they add hangun training in AA too. whenever I goto my firing range, the officer there immediately clears 3 lanes to both sides so that ppl won't get hurt by my horrible aim. if AA had handgun range, i'm sure I can shoot correctly. LOL
