Fly your flag tomorrow

[sissamhain]

You can't find anymore flags to buy around this area. Two flights left Boise today- that was it. Nothing came in. The RED CROSS won't take my blood because I don't weigh 110 lbs. But they took me money which is just as good or better. Wonderful to hear of the support coming from so many countries in every way for the US. Many heroes we have and

There really aren`t any places to get flags here either. I really wish my school would have a gathering of students and fly the school flag . . . maybe go over the situation a bit, and sing some songs and show our support. I`ll be there with those little flags decorating my hair.

And, to your earlier post, I think that you have the right to say what you want in your journal. Yes, a lot of us Americans sound bad and thirsty for blood, but this is a big strike against us. We`ve been the biggest supporters of everyone. We`ve helped anyone we were able to. And then this? Are we not allowed to feel anger towards this slap in the face? Like my friend said today . . . they hit us with those planes and it was like a punch in the stomach -- and then, just as we were standing up, we find out that they left easy clues that pretty much told us who was responsible, which served as a welcoming smack in the face once we regained our feet.

I think anyone has the right to display whatever emotion they feel towards this. America has been there to help and we`ve been attacked. Our freedom and our rights are being threatened . . . I don`t know about other people my age, but I, on the verge of eighteen years of age and soon to be a citizen, don`t want my rights limited and turned stricter because of what happened. I`m pissed off too and I am waiting, glued to the news too, to see what happens.

Gosh- all I can say is ditto.
