To respond to the somewhat tense discussion we had in class today-- the flag does not have to be destroyed if it touches the ground, but it must be moved so it no longer touches things beneath it or the ground. It is to avoid it becoming soiled or damaged. While I try to understand the position of those who do not hold this symbol sacred, I also hope that as American's we respect that the flag is very important to many people for different reasons, and that in itself is a tolerance that should be considered. Few citizens agree with everything America has done or is currently doing, but we enjoy many rights and freedoms as citizens, and we have the right to protest those things we don't agree with.

Don't forget to comment on what is important about the bookmark, and perhaps share the ones that are relevant with the cos students via the era group. Get this info from me if you don't know it. More history might be helpful.

The events before the revolutionary war were just as important as the war itself.

The revolutionary war takes the cake for political influence, it did define a country after all.
