Americans don't like unpatriotic Americans, last time I was there, there were stars and stripes flying from every doorway, from 300 feet high flagpoles with flags the size of a football pitch, probably the most patriotic country in the world. I doubt much has changed in the 20 years since.
Anyone that tries to denounce the US claiming to be American is just asking for it eventually and that would be without bringing heritage into the equation.
Missing a point here. If one feels inclusive to national identity then one speaks up.
If one feels an alien to national identity then one doesn't belong and keeps quiet.
If some feel they have a greater say over countries issues then others due to the colour of the skin, faith or creed then that's clearly exclusion and has nothing to do with the unity of a nation. On the contrary, it takes a slice of the cake away and diminishes the total.
Do you not see this?
Prince Albert is a prime example who worked tirelessly for the Empire and yet by some nits in Parliament was considered to be not really British.
Flag-waving is just showing off usually by useless wannabee somebodies. The real patriots quietly get on with making their country great by doing not talking. Talk is cheap. The walk is harder.
