Well the greatness of our country, a democratic REPUBLIC, is you, others, myself, we can all react as individuals. People do sometimes stand when the National anthem is played on TV, you've just not had that experience is all. When in the world is the connection between the SIZE OF WHEELS on a truck and having RESPECT for a symbol of our country ??? SIX FOOT Wheels ? SIX FOOT ? I did see those once at a demonstration of OFF ROAD MINING EQUIPMENT made by an American company, but have never seen six foot wheels on a big highway truck, not denying they are out there and running regularly at all.
