Patriotism

what does it mean to you? i know we have alot of different nationalities here so the question i ask the brew community as a whole what does patriotism mean for you personally? for me it means loving your country and it's principles even if you don't like the people that are leading it.

Re: Patriotism

For me, patriotism is to be willing to do anything for your country, even if it includes Torture, Death, war, to smaller things like public service - and expect nothing in return.

If I was told to put a bullet in my head for my country tomorrow, I'd happily do it, because I know my country has given me twenty five years of her life. No, you don't need to agree with the politicians, you just need to have faith in your people, and know that they will ultimately choose what is right for the future.

That doesn't mean I run around with my shirt off sprayed with white and red and a Molson in my hand, it just means that when the sh*t hits the fan, I serve my country before anything, and after everything.

That in my opinion is Patriotism. But that's just my opinion.

Re: Patriotism

I think it is loving your Country, having pride in it, and the willingness to do anything to protect it.

I honestly think the USA is the best country in the world, but I know she has her faults. I hope it maintains its might as well.

Do I like Obama? No. Do I agree with what congress does? nope. But living in the home of the brave and the land of the free is good enough for me.

Re: Patriotism

I think the Brew should be more patriotic and ban anyone who isn't from the United
States :D

Re: Patriotism

Ummm, no. The brew isn't the United States, it's the internet. (how can you be patriotic to something you're not a part of?)

It's not the religion that causes wars, it's the men who use religion as a means to control people that do.

Re: Patriotism

I think Patriotism is holding your country in higher regards than your government.
