Funny, I say the same thing to myself about your posts on this topic. But in public, I’d just agree to disagree. Until you say my ish is stupid. Then I’ll pull out the “your’s is stupider” return on the forum. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > Canadians don’t even have the freedom to defend their loved ones from criminals with a handgun. Difference of opinion. I don’t call that a “freedom”. And you’re generalizing to spin it your way. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > I love this country because my family immigrated here to escape extreme poverty in Italy 90 years ago. **They were welcomed here with open arms** (mainly) and given a chance to make decent lives- far better than they could’ve had in the old country. Which we, as a country, now try and prevent when anyone south of the border tries to do the same thing. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > I love this country because I come from very meager beginnings and have made a very nice living for myself at 27 years old.

Again, difference of opinion on what exactly a “freedom” is. I truly believe with all my heart, and this will piss off every gun-totin’ muthfuggah on here, that the 2nd ammendment was never intended to be interpreted the way it is, because they never could have foreseen what we would become. But courts rule otherwise, so I’ll live with it. BTW- I own many guns. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > I love this country because my father and grandfathers were willing to fight and even lay down their lives if they had too to protect the things I enjoy today. Appreciate this, also. I went to my Uncle’s full military honors funeral at Arlington last week. My other uncle was a Navy pilot and put his plane in to the ground on a training mission. My last Uncle is a retired tank battalion commander. And my father, God rest his soul, never was right after Vietnam. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > I love this country because I have traveled- I’ve been to several European countries, and America does shine in comparison (unless you like entire cities to be shut down several times a year when the mass unions randomly strike, like having \*\*\*\*ed up teeth because nationalized health care won’t fix your snaggletooth, like having filthy streets, ect). A generalization. One that is shared with many elitist Americans (not saying you are one) who will find anything wrong that they can to make themselves believe we have it the best. There are health programs in Europe that run quite well and offer everything we have available. I am in the medical industry and work very closely with foreign governments to allow my company’s FDA approved product to be marketed in their countries. > [@HOW TO: convert new civic SI to MUGEN](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/how-to-convert-new-civic-si-to-mugen/38609/31): > > If you morons are that unproud to be Americans, relinquish your citizenship and move somewhere \*\*\*\*ing else. What do you consider “unproud”? Someone who doesn’t think the same as you? I’d fight and die for my country, but I’m not so foolish as to believe it’s better than any other, or insist that anything our forefathers came up with should be applied to today’s society. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/upside-down-flag-in-protest-of-obama-upsets-neighbors/200573)._
