Yea its pitiful...
The worst part for me here in Baltimore is that we are the birthplace of the the SSB. Yet when they sing the song at any event in Maryland when you get to the Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
everyone screams OOOOO (because of the Orioles or O's...) It is disrepectful in my opinion and really gets under my skin.

Really... How can you call yourself an "A"merican?!! Have you no pride in what this country was founded on?
This is a perfect example of what this country is coming to. This is exhibit A to why our country is a joke to other countries. You don't deserve to celebrate tomorrow.

Not sure why I can't celebrate though, even though I live in Canada now, I'll still be flag waving and celebrating (pretty much just like every other day).

I know... I was waiting to see who would bite on that...

Well, look it up and read the words. Then thank the people that have died so that you have the things you need to survive to live the next day...
