I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture.

Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the

majority of Americans. However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the

"politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was

offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against

anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America. Our population is almost entirely

composed of descendants of immigrants. However, there are a few things that those who have

recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.

This idea of America being a multi cultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our

national identity. As Americans, we have our own culture, our own society, our own

language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of

struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other

language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language! "In God

We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan We

adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this

nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the

walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world

as your new home, because God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam,
 then you should seriously consider a move to another part of

this planet. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care

how you did things where you came from.

This is OUR COUNTRY, our land,
and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion and

we will allow you every opportunity to do so. But, once you are done complaining, whining, and

griping about our flag, our pledge, our national motto, or our way of life, I highly

encourage you to take advantage of one other great American freedom,

THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
