who used to yell at ME to get the f**k out of america if i didn't like it. if i was protesting the war or something like that. i also loved america even if i didn't like some of the things she did or was responsible for. this is my home. i'm not always 100% happy, but i love her. i guess these asswipes don't love her as much as i do. perhaps THEY really SHOULD be the ones steppin'
