What's 'Un-American' to you?
Are there any attitudes or practices that you would consider to be 'un-American?'

Re: What's 'Un-American' to you?
The thing that comes to mind is those individuals who bitch and moan non-stop about government but don't bother to vote. I think it is everyone's right to not vote. But to me, not voting means not being afforded the ability to bitch about the government.

You mean like something that went against uncaring greed, discrimination, land grabs, oppression of a minority, exploitation of an underclass.
Well, maybe the ACLU and Southern Poverty Law Center. They oppose those American traditions.

Re: What's 'Un-American' to you?
What if the Honda, Toyota, etc. is built in the U.S.? That's employing U.S. workers and so what if it doesn't enrich an American corporation? Let the laid off GM workers go to the Toyota plant. It's not like the GM board of directors puts their worker's interests first anyway. I do co-sign buying other U.S. made goods. Like fucking flags!

Re: What's 'Un-American' to you?
people assume that they are built here. you can tell by the VIN numbers and slight variations from the vehicles. My mom had a mitsu galant that was built in japan. it had peddles that were closer together, the seat came closer to the steering wheel and the mirrors were made for a shorter person. Since my mom is 5ft, the car was perfect for her. For me it was like driving a law mower LOL
if they are built here great, you are right, it is promoting jobs. but so many companies, even american companies are outsourcing that we need to make a stand somewhere

I own an Acura TL and was made in Ohio! So, I'm proud to have contributed to the American workforce.
Tea Party = Un-American in my book.

UnAmerican = Censorship of GI headstones
Don't remember if i posted this before, but a woman had to fight over a year to get a wiccan symbol placed on her Lt. husband's marker who died in Iraq. They have symbols for Christians, jews, muslims, athiests, over 33 symbols.... but she had to fight for a wiccan symbol after HE gave his life for freedom!
THAT is un-american
