You know nothing about me but you mock me at will....

I wore the flag proudly in Europe when many were afraid travel there.....
Wow, I also know someone that knows someone that was related to someone that almost was in the trade center. But, that doesn't make me a leftie, or does it? And if I have an American label on my underwear, that makes me patriotic too! And you compare that with serving your country? Thanks a lot. That really makes some of us feel good about those protected at home when the only difficult issue they might have is how to find the restroom in a foreign country.

Seriously, I am thankful that someone that you might know, was not harmed on 9/11. I was not the one that "mocked" you, but I can understand why it was done. When someone states that they wore American flags overseas to show their patriotism and then it turns out that it was just them wearing a label with the flag on it, it deserves derision.
