104. Exactly and the third way
is how I see it. My husband makes a good living, we moved to the suburbs of Portland last year. That was a hard thing-giving up the city-but the housing price were better and yes, the schools.

NEVER have I seen so damn many American flags in my life. So PROUD they are of what exactly-their damn good life in the suburbs and all the people we have murdered to make their life so good (FREEDOM isn't free-gotta kill for it) -oh sorry-but what is it? A DAMN myth. No I take that back-it's not a myth-their life is GOOD. The are white, upper middle class to just middle class-but there is no problem with America to them apparently. They are PROUD of America. Proud. Proud of the torture done in thier name. OH WAIT, they are innocent because they don't know or don't care. They are the banality of evil. I know many times, this stuff is so horrifying I cannnot read it. But I know.

That flag represents people being tortured for me, in my name. I WILL NEVER see an American flag and not think of the horrors that have been done in my name. Maybe if Obama actually told the truth to America and there was some accountability I wouldn't see the blindness of evil when I look at their happy flags flying in the suburban breeze, but I doubt that day will come.
