[QUOTE="busterheiney, post: 4067454, member: 52406"] I agree with Pablo here. It's probably just semantics, but I take pride in things I'm responsible for being a part of and my accomplishments. Being born in this nation is just pure dumb luck on our part. I've always felt as though "Lucky to be an American" would be a more appropriate phrase. Pride is a very slippery slope. Hitler pushed...demanded...pride in Germany. To call that toxic is an understatement. This is coming from a combat veteran who would gladly do it all again to defend my nation if necessary. I am proud that I served my country. [/QUOTE]
