Dreamscape DNO's blog: "The American Flag"

There are a few things in life that really anger me when it comes to politics, religion or what not. In this instance Its about the American Flag.

I have been brought up to respect the American Flag and for the meaning behind it. It represents our Freedom and how our ancestors died to retrieve our beloved FREEDOM! I believe our men and women in the military as well. Because without them we wouldn't be this wonderful country we are.

But when I walk into a store and pick up an American Flag to Purchase it. It States that it was made in China!. And THAT pisses me off to no end. I'm all for those that want to live in our country for freedom and what not. I'm not opposed to that. But to allow another Country to make OUR FLAG is down right insulting in my eyes. To me its a symbol that they can take our country from us without having to shed blood.

Look at all the things that we buy daily that's made in other countries and less made in the U.S.A. We can thank the big business tycoons for that. Which is whatever. But to allow others to make our FLAG and they don't even respect our country is fucking rediculous nor have the understanding of how our ancestors had to fight to get that FREEDOM. IT MEANS NOTHING TO THEM the way it means to us Americans.  I have had People come up to me and say well we make other countries flags and I think it ISN'T right for any to make another country's Flag. I have had other nationalities come up to me and say "you getting new flag?" and I would look at them and say "yeah?" then they mock our country and they LIVE HERE! It enrages me so much.  Those flags in those stores that state "Made in China" ARE NOT AN AMERICAN FLAGS. It took me along time to actually get one that did state "Made in the U.S.A."

Its insulting to our ancestors, to our families now that serve for our wonderful country. I  had to share my view on this.

So I ask those that are Americans...DON'T BUY A FLAG that says "MADE IN CHINA". Buy one that's made FROM THE U.S.A.
