What Patriotism Means to Me In the aftermath of the September 11‚ 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States we are seeing many forms of Patriotism. I was surprised to find when I researched this word that it had a negative feeling associated with it. I believe that patriotism is actively showing your support for your country‚ standing up for what you believe in‚ and fighting for our individual free will and independence. I am proud of my country and I am not ashamed to fly the American Flag

What does it mean to be a Puerto Rican? This is a question that may have different answers according to the emphasis that is given. The more important approach is the geographical. Therefore‚ Puerto Rican are anyone that grown on the island of Puerto Rico.

What Patriotism means to me!.. I wave the Pakistani flag! I am so patriotic! My heart is content and the world sees my gleaming teeth‚ I show pride. Following the regular way of life is our nature and endorsing it our second nature. Is waving a flag‚ standing up for an inherited national anthem our sense of patriotism?

Justice means having someone adjudicated and found guilty for a crime they have committed. Laws are put in place for a reason and everyone should have to abide by them. Just having a criminal off the street is enough justice for me‚ but locking one up and “throwing away the key” will not make them better; it will probably not change them at all and eventually make their situation worse.

What does respect mean to you? To me‚ respect means following the golden rule.
