It seems there is plenty of bitching about young people and where our society has come. I thought this might make some of us feel a little better about it and them.

So many colors to choose from yet so few stand out

The boys, who according to Raleigh, N.C., news station WRAL are cousins, were riding their scooter and hoverboard, respectively, when they noticed the flag being raised.

The original post has been shared nearly 3,000 times and received a number of heartwarming comments.

Roseboro Fire Department identified the boys on Monday as Derrick Tyrone Ingram Jr. and Thomas Edwards Jones Jr., the Charlotte Observer reported, and their act has left their family proud. “My son and my nephew,” Ladii J Ingram shared on the Facebook post. When told she should be proud of her son and nephew, she responded, “I am, this made my whole day.” Others heaped on praise, writing, “Thank you for instilling respect in your young men!”

“Their response was taught, and taught well,” posted one person. “Please congratulate these young men for the respect they showed our great flag and our great nation. They are setting the example for others to follow.”

“The fact that they stood there showing respect without being prompted to do so says a lot about how they are being raised, another wrote on the fire department’s Facebook post.

No doubt in my mind, those boys were reared by a strong Conservative family.
Thanks.

Maybe. Could have been a patriotic, liberal family just as well. But to keep politics out of it, I think they are good kids and their parents should be proud. (Regardless of their leanings)

There are lots of young people out there to be proud of. We usually only hear about the failures. Sadly

As I have said several times, apparently I don't get out enough.   All the Liberals I know want to destroy what that flag stands for and reconstruct it in a plaid socialist pattern.

Rams,
I don't agree with you on that one.

In my mind, (generally speaking) most of the liberals that I know do not WANT the country to turn communist. Most that  I know are very good people that have a passive view of what is the correct way our country should be headed. It seems that they want to cure the world of all it's wrong doings.  As conservatives, we look back at mistakes made, IE: communism, and realize that is not a practical approach, nor something we should attempt.

NOW, with that said, it is the PROGRESSIVES, SOCIALISTS,  and the ONE WORLD ORDER types that we should fear, they want to change the USA, and the rest of the  world into what they consider a utopia, taking the USA down by doing so.

He said it so many times and some voters either ignored or had no idea what he meant.

After 8 years exactly what did he transform about this country or was it just another political lie?

Jim,
You may be correct but, I believe my position is still valid.   It's more likely these kids are from a conservative family/background.   I've watched our flag be disrespected by too many so often, it makes sick.  They are never conservatives or, those that have served.   That still leaves room for a couple other categories.

You are right. No liberals have or will ever serve our country. No liberals are patriotic. Liberals are dumb, lazy, unpatriotic people.

Yeah, your position is valid.  coolsmiley

You've said plenty Ron. You don't believe these kids could possibly be from a liberal family. I get it. Have a good evening.

And the title of the thread gets changed so as to slam contributors.

Devious and duplicitous.

You are definitely back on ignore.

Save yourself time from making any response to any comments I might make on this or the Tech forum.

Anything you write on any subject has no value to me.
