It seems lately that people who show any pride in their country are being called fascists and I have to wonder if they really know what it means? Might it be a case where ignorance breeds contempt?
I agree that everyone has the right to believe in what they want. I take offense when people try to force me to swallow their crazy pill because they think their beliefs are greater than mine.
I would never go to a friend's home, much less a different country, and disrespect their customs, beliefs or property.
