USA: Recommit to what makes it great

| August 18, 2023 1:00 AM

Where is this country going?

I pledge indifference to the flags of the Divided States of America and to the republics for which they stand, two nations under no one, divisible, with tyranny and injustice for many.

Not everyone is born “Special.” You need to work hard to be special and you will never make it if you don’t respect and care for others. We don’t always have to agree but we must at least stop and listen to one another. Just because a few people feel abused and misunderstood, doesn’t mean the rest of this country has to come to a grinding halt to accommodate the needs and wants of a few.

Please read and recommit to what makes our country truly great. If we don’t, we will lose it all: I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
