Yes I get that and I appreciate your response.

But I’m more concerned with the apparent lack of outrage that allows said politicians to remain in office after pulling crap like this, and the news of it goes out in the community.

People have been conditioned to just accept the daily denigration of our culture, our traditions, our heritage, our People.

I find that disgusting; anyone who calls themselves American and has a basic understand of what that word means - and has meant for over two centuries - should.
