IMO only, he does NOT have the right to disrespect everyone. if you want to throw around disrepecting others as your right, i think people kicking kevins little rear end is our right. we need to instill respect in more people that way.
8:53 Please reconsider your argument. It makes no sense. We are all free human beings and do not owe any persons or objects our admiration other than our Creator.
He will deal with us as He chooses after this pitiful life ends.
It has not been necessary for a "defense" of our Nation for a very long time now.
We have no serious threats from any Country on the planet with the exception of Israel - who is obviously taking over our political discourse through its ownership of our Media.
The only threats we face are from within. The enemy is inside the gates.
The outrageous and obscene expenditure of The People's Money on Defense is criminal. It was President Eisenhower who warned us with his departing remarks that the Military Industrial Complex would indeed become our enemy.
905-Do you honestly believe Israel is a threat to us? Without us, they wouldn't have any sortof military to speak of. We, as a nation have no real threat besides ourselves.
i can understand your argument, but respectfully disagree. we have to make the best of what we have while we are here. we are losing self-respect and respect for others. we are allowing people to ransack our society in the name of "freedom". as spidey says, "with great power comes great responsibility." unfortunately, people arent doing so well with that responsibility.
As a society, we are quickly losing cohesion simply because our "freedom" trumps unity as a country. If we cannot stand together for our country, then what does our country stand for? Apathy, under the guise of "freedom" shall be this country's downfall. We need to restore the pride and loyalty that made this country great. Rome is burning...........
9-11 got us all in a panic because we are not used to being attacked on our own soil. It was a huge shock, but a "serious threat" to the US as a nation? No. Not a bit.
The fact that anyone would consider 9-11 a serious military threat to our national sovereignty shows how out of whack our perceptions are of real world threats.
Real threats to US power and integrity like the financial collapse that began during the Bush administration has done more real world damage to the US stability and infrastructure than a dozen 9-11s.
Surprised no one thinks Mexico is a threat to us. I expect to see my Marine defending that border after Obama is voted out. Drug cartels, kidnappings, executions, beheadings---let's tighten up.
I am a liberal, and a democrat, but I do require every student in my classroom to stand respectfully for the pledge every single day - no exceptions. There is no reason not to stand out of respect, no reason at all.

9:05 AM... Did you forget about 9/11???? Was that not a SERIOUS threat?

Now that's a man that deserves respect.

Kevin is well on his way to become a leach of society,he will expect and demand his share of entitlements from the Government
Pogo got it right 30 some years ago, when he said We have found our enemy; he is us".
Vote them out of office on November 2 and take back our country.
If this depicted another country we would call it propaganda.

We'll be paying for Kevin the rest of his life.
911 was an inside job
It was a crime, not an act of war.
Get real
