Some people think it’s patriotic to blindly follow our Government.

It’s not.

This country was founded on the idea that we can--and should--question those who govern us. That we shouldn’t give in simply because they say so.

The most patriotic thing we can do is to question our government, to live to uphold the ideals our country was founded upon. If we determine that our Government’s actions are just, then we should support them, but not until then.
