I miss a time where people didn't wave foreign flags on our streets screaming "Fuck America" in mobs and the "Patriot Act" wasn't a thing. It's like the end result after all these years is that our nation has cultural "Stockholm syndrome". I can't help but imagine what the world would look like now had we gone into Saudi Arabia.
I hadn't even noticed that it stopped. It seemed like it was the yellow ribbons more than flags, at least around here.
