American Pride

Am I the only American I know who has American pride? Maybe it is because I am a Boy Scout Eagle Scout, but still, why is it that Americans don’t have pride?

For example, Californians don’t seem to pledge allegiance to anybody. All they care for is themselves, their own property, their own possessions, their own cars etc. It seems that a lot of these communities don’t care about America as a whole, but instead themselves, their own communities, their own sub population.

And it seems that a lot of people in LA only care about their wealth, not America.

How to make America prideful again?

Simple thoughts:

First, get your kids into Boy Scouts, or maybe some sort of ROTC program. I actually really really really am so grateful for Boy Scouts, all the adult scout troop leaders, and the community there; I think Boy Scouts was a great organization to teach me civic responsibility And also what it means to be a true American.

Second, maybe some sort of self enlistment in the military is a good idea. Why? The truth seems to be that the source of American strength is from her military, and apparently, our Navy and our naval force. It seems that controlling the waters and being able to control the waters is critical.
