This is a beautiful photo of a giant flag in Arizona.

The photo is authentic and Untouched.

The picture was taken on a regular Kodak 35 mm film.

The person who took the picture couldn't believe the image created by the sun's rays.

Nice of them to share it with the world!

Read what is says under the picture. . . .

BEAUTIFUL but couldn't see any writing, bro.

A winner of a shot. Gorgeous.

Great shot!

Thanks! There's nothing like being overseas in uniform and rounding a corner to see Old Glory waving in the wind. God Bless America. And shame and a pox on every person who does not stand and place their hand over their heart when the flag is raised or the National Anthem is played. They should be tossed out of the stadium.

I'm sure the disabled would sue! Just funnin ya.

That is truly beautiful ! ! !

Aloha

=====================================

I'll rise and participate so as not to appear disrespectful for those who gave me the freedom to not rise and participate.

But will remain amazed at how many of those who ensure my freedom would not understand or grant me the moral freedom to refuse such participation and yet have the insight to consider that I might be very appreciative nonetheless.

And as far as the cross...guess I'll see all those who ain't impressed in hell.

I guess that flag pic should be sent to all that say, under God, should be removed from anything government!

Great pic, I saved it, thank you!!!

I am disabled, and drive a power wheelchair, but struggle to stand with help and pain, if possible, when the anthem is played. It's the least I can do for the buddies who didn't come home from Viet Nam, others who left body parts, and a beloved son who is in uniform and in harm's way.

that was a cool reply back when i said the pledge every day before school started....that would be elementary school

billyjackson - I fought beside some good men who didn't come home, some hadn't celebrated their eighteenth birthday, so you could be free to say asinine things. Glad I did, and glad you can. But it sure doesn't impress many favorably when you do. I would expect that when you have more years behind you than in front of you, you might regret that you did. But, this is America, where it is your inalienable right to make a perfect fool of yourself. You're doing a good job.

Well said Tucker.

Billy I quote you:

"I'll rise and participate so as not to appear disrespectful for those who gave me the freedom to not rise and participate."

Billy, you stand just because you dont want to offend others around you? It's only for appearance? You really dont have that feeling of patriotism in your heart? What's wrong with you?

He is a cantankerous, old ****. That's what's the matter with him!

I put my ash on the line for turds like you...?

Lost a lot of respect for you when you said that crap earlier. Its all good though...

Look

I stand and participate even though I don't particularly care for the ritual of the Pledge BECAUSE I respect and appreciate the freedom I've been given.

I don't care for reciting words that have been written by someone else in order to express something I feel. I don't like reciting the Lord's Prayer when I can pray for myself. But I do it out of respect for those around me.

I have posted over and over again on this board my appreciation for those who served, still serve and the families that have to do without them both while they serve and perhaps forever.

And how many folks stand and Pledge and just want to get it over with so they can get on with the game or whatnot? They appreciate more than me?

Look, vets. I don't mean to crap on your sacrifice or those of your friends and family. Just the opposite. If you truly believe that I cannot have deep appreciation for you but not embrace the Pledge...I don't know what to tell you. I thank you for the freedom to embrace what I choose and say what I think.

But sacrifice or not, I can't guarantee that my objects of embrace or line of thinking will be ok with you.

And you know better than anyone...you fought so that it wouldn't have to. Fool or turd or whatever else, I'm free to appreciate you deeply yet not care for the Pledge of Allegiance.

I'm not sure if I can explain my opinion any better. If this post doesn't make it clear enough...I don't know what else to say.

Damn, BillyJackson, I feel sorry for you!
