Well I am proud as hell to be an AMERICAN. NO shame here. I'm proud of all who have fought and died for this country. Bars on Windows doesnt change the fact that this is the best country on Earth. Alls that is is a reminder to me. Everytime I go to a city , it just reminds me how fortunate I am to live in my lil hick town. It's not a perfect world, but try finding anywhere closer than the good ol' U S of A
