    do we honor patriotism and military service? or is it just working for the 'man'?

    I feel as though the 'I too am An American' takes are passe...

    In the 'new' military, it's about the benefits, etc.

    The OC............for now!

    It depends on life experience.A deeper question is, If america decides to attack Africa (oh that right, already happened) Should Black americans take up arms against Black Africans in the name of Yt supremacy??

    So James, do you feel patriotic towards a country built on yt supremacy??

    There's as much a macho/John Wayne with a permanent suntan/etc. take on why even Colin Powell joined the military...
