That's pleasant. Something I'm going to send to the Coffee Party Movement.Coffee Party Civility Pledge: "As a member or supporter of the Coffee Party, I pledge to conduct myself in a way that is civil, honest, and respectful toward people with whom I disagree. I value people from different cultures, I value people with different ideas, and I value and cherish the democratic process."
I would agree with most of that, except the part where other "Americans" refuse to conform with what made America great. Sure, we all have different ethnic heritages, but the assimulation into one American melting pot culture was the good part. Now we have others coming that either refuse to conform to being an American, or they insist and pushing their religion on us by what could become violent means. If both of those would stop, I could be more tolerant of them. I'd rather keep my guard up and be ready to defend my way of life by any means necessary then become complacent and let my country die.
