I grew up in Brookfield a small town fairly close to Cicero...my town was mostly people whose heritage was similiar to Cicero....we were proud americans and as each new family immigrated here (especially after WW2)they quickly assimilated and became americans.
Wondered when reading this post on flag in Cicero whether it was just the “older” generation making the protests...I fear that our younger folks have grown up in a “PC” world and will just go along with anything for fear of making someone mad....this is what will end America as we used to know it....watching Obama and his appeal to the college kids almost makes me sick to my stomach as it is to typical of “brainwashing” the young and before they grow old enough to realize what he stands for it could be too late.
I fully expect to see the mexican flag flying here in Ga. at some of our county buildings...that is the day I know we have lost the fight.........
I grew up in Cicero. My parents were Polish-Slovakian. All four of my grandparents came from the old country and the first thing they learned was English. They never expected a thing from the government.
And they became American citizens as soon as they could.
I wonder if we haven’t already lost it-I see a few even here who say they won’t put signs in their yards or on their cars for fear of vandalism-if people refrain from exercising their right to speech, especially in supporting candidates opposed to a socialist ticket, in fear of vandalism, they will never fight to protect their freedom at the point of their lives. I wouldn’t want my home or car vandalised either, but I’ll be darned if I’ll be intimidated from utilising my freedom of speech by the fear of it. What then will I do when the stakes are even higher?
