Based on the quote “Authentic patriotism is not about you‚ what you believe or what you think is right. . . . Authentic patriotism is not an opinion. It is an action‚” by Stephen Kieran. He thinks actions mean more than opinions‚ and I completely agree‚ how are you going to expect people to believe or know your opinions if you aren’t showing them?
