Time to ban the 4th of July?
   
According to the report, published by Harvard University, July 4th-themed festivities (defined by the study as fireworks, parades, political speeches, and barbecues) not only energize primarily Republicans, but also turn children into Republicans and increase GOP voter turnout.

Typical liberal mentality, if people do things they don't like, ban it.

21. Don't you love it! They have a protest, and they are patriots.
   
We have a protest, and we hate America. I truly believe that they would hate the founding fathers that they think they love.

The 4th of July is not a protest, you idiot.
Besides look at what the left protests against, anything that is traditional American values, the left protests against.

27. I hate all jingoistic bullshit like the 4th of July.
   
All those stupid super-patriotic holidays like Veteran's Day, Memorial Day, etc. I refuse to wave a flag, to stand when the anthem is played, to say the Pledge. The hell with all that.

Yet you claim to be patriotic I bet.  :whatever:

Don't you love it! They have a protest, and they are patriots.  We have a protest, and we hate America.

When your protest sends the message of "America was attacked, the chickens have come home to roost, so we should surrender, apologize, and hand all our wealth and resources to the world and maybe they'll like us," then real Americans might reach the conclusion that you aren't overly fond of, and might even hate, America.

My offering is a little more subtle.  I was going to tell them to eat a bowl of d!cks, just after I served them up a steaming bowl of STFU.

Yes. The French Revolution is the progenitor to the Bolsheviks, the Nazis, the Maoists and modern Regressives.

One of my ancestors who fought in the Revolutionary War returned home to France afterward.  He and his young son were forced to flee France during the Revolution, and he ended up in Virginia.  The French Revolution was bloody and nasty and many, many innocents died, so I'm not surprised that the DUmmies would glorify it.

You don't stand when the Anthem is played and I'm around, you won't be able to for quite some time, ya POS!

I agree with Allo, it is disgusting when people don't stand up for the Anthem. The only people exempt, would be those visiting from another country. As for everyone else get your fat or scrawny asses off that chair and respect the flag for which our country stands for!!!
