How Do I Become an Un-American?

[California Girl]

Yes, I do see that you're an imbecilic douchebag....Most others do, too.

Yes, I believe that quite a few people do see that.

Unamerican activites?

1. Exercise.
2. Learn a foreign language.
3. Suggest government be limited.
4. Save money.
5. Say or do anything that isn't politically correct.

6. Eat Grey Poupon

You said "Grey" and not "Gray"

Thassunamerican!

I've wondered how anyone becomes un-American when being an American refers to the soil you live on or nationality you claim to be a part of. The way I see it the only way you can be an un-american is if you claim you nationality is from a country other than America so how can anyone living in this country be un-american?

I suppose someone can say that not holding certain values pertaining to your country is un-American but when did our thoughts and beliefs change when you cross a political barrier? The truth is is that our thoughts, beliefs, and personality is an independent creation of the geographic location that our nation happens to be at. To say otherwise, is to say that the minute we cross a border or immigrate to another country to claim nationality there is simultanous* change our "personality".

A nation does not define character attributes of each individual living under those laws. It only defines the laws and not the person that is a part of it.

I think you are being deliberately obtuse. But there is an easy way for you to see 'un-American" first hand.

Start a thread here at the USMB on something the USA does well.

Then just sit back and read.

I was but there was a point I was trying to make like your status of being an American is simply your citizenship status in this country and not what political beliefs you subscribe to. I hope Obama fails a lot but that doesn't neatralize my citizenship status in this country.

 

[Mr.Fitnah]

Support the constitution,
lower taxes and object to government spending sprees.

You are confusing terms.

un-American is a mental attitude, usually taught in our centers of higher learning, not a status indicator of citizenship.

I don't think they are confusing at all. I am an American because of my citizenship status not becuase of what I believe.

And here I just thought he was being deliberately moronic...

 

[Toro]

Give up your citizenship.

Then sneak back in the country as an illegal immigrant and stay until you get caught.

 

[EriktheRed]

How Do I Become an Un-American?

Go back in time to 2002 and disagree with the last President.

I have deliberated moronic many times; my idiocy was always unintentional however.

 

[ABikerSailor]

You know, this un-American type of bullshit comes from the old "if you're not with us, you're against us and you support the terrorists".

What is un-American? Anything outside our borders.

I’m that unpatriotic bitch who thinks that sporting a flag pin in your lapel doesn’t mean shit if you’re wearing it while supporting pay-cuts for the troops, or budget cuts to veterans’ care – or, for that matter, calling anyone and everyone who disagrees with you “unpatriotic” because you really have nothing of substance to say, but just love the sound of your own meaningless rhetoric voice.

Just the way that Grey Poupon is pronounced doesn't sound appetizing.
Kinda like eating a "Chit Sandwich"

It's good shit.

 

[editec]

Since America is a land based on idealogies, rather than an ethic, to be a America means to believe and support the ideological values of the nation.

Naturally there's the rub.

Who gets to decide what those are?

The goverment, or the People?

Or perhaps just the people who have power?

Or perhaps, since we also CLAIM to believe in the freedom of thought (that's what freedom of speech is, isn't it?) then really, how can anyone's thoughts exclude them from being thought American?

The term unAmerican is (rather ironically, I think) UnAmerica thinking.

 

[txlonghorn]

To be un American.

Hope the President "fails"

Anti education

support torture and war

Stay scared

insist public schools teach the supernatural

be anti women, anti gay and anti anyone not the white color

Call those you disagree with "un-American"

wow, look at all those talking points.

You forgot not paying higher taxes and agreeing with Joe Biden

And not supporting private business takeover

And wanting less government control

And listening to conservated talk shows

And going to rallies organized by republicans and conservatives

And voting any way other than democrat

That's why I don't like Palin. She's got nothing to say, yet tells everyone she's got a plan to help.

Drill baby drill ain't it.........

Okay. If you want to deliberately interchange terms, go ahead.

I see plenty of citizens who have un-American beliefs.
