Fly The Flag

2008-09-03 / Opinion

Please join us in this "Fly the Flag" campaign by telling everyone across this great land and into every community in the United States of America about

the program on Thursday, September 11, 2008. On this date an American flag should be displayed outside every home, apartment, office, and store in the United States. Every individual should make it his/her duty to display an American flag on this seventh anniversary of one our country's worst tragedies. We do this in honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11, their families, friends and loved ones who continue to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms.

In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood shoulder-to-shoulder against terrorism. Sadly, those flags have all but disappeared. Our patriotism pulled us through some tough times, and it shouldn't take another attack to galvanize us in solidarity. Our American flag is the fabric of our country, and together we can prevail over terrorism of all kinds.

Action Plan:

So, here's what we need you to do ..

(1) Tell everyone you know. Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11 and let those sentiments guide you.

(2) Fly an American flag of any size on 9/11. Honestly, Americans should fly the flag year-round.
