I was just about to say... the union jack probably zillion times more often sported.

Loles Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Cause the simple people enjoy so much the colorful pictures, there are lot of stars, and many stripes. So this is a wonderful image for morons. But not every-one is moron who likes it, they know this flag is symbol of unalloyed freedom, the extremely long history and the liberality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, your photo is not 'colored paper', it is a symbol for 'rumdum'... I hope you feel better calling me a stupid drunk. Ironically, I very rarely drink anything at all. Most people agree that the "symbol" is not the thing - the "map" is not the territory. But, if it makes you feel superior to personally insult others, go ahead and we will just feel sorry for you.

iancnx Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 OP. Because they have been brainwashed into believing the good ol US of A represents the freedom of the world. Wrong on so many levels least of all failed American foreign policy which by 2050 many free thinkers believe and predict will be assigned to one of the greatest mistakes of humanity. Thank goodness I am on the Chinese side of the globe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
