    I could be wrong. Don't I have the right?

    Lol, cry yourself a river.

    I don't see any problem supporting your old country, or your parent's country.

    It's just a bit insensitive to say it out loud. Keeping it to yourself is better. We all have our own old country, but the common denominator is US, after all.

    Why did you pick borntexan, as your username? Besides the literal meaning of course..

    Fascinating. What country do you support? You clearly don't support anything the US stands for, given your last statement is in direct contradiction to everything that a nation of laws is built around. Sounds more like something North Korea or Iran would do.

    I've been a bit troubled the past several days, and I've really struggled with how to come to terms with things I've been subjected to.

    And then today it hit me, and all is now right again in my world. You see, I spent the first 45 years of my life in Texas, and I love that state and my country. BUT, for every day that I lived in Texas, I probably averaged something like between 1.5 and 2 dumps a day......each made up of several turds. And when you think about it, every single one of those turds was BornTexan.

    I'm happy Daley didn't win gold with the home cooking re-dive scam. Although he acted like bronze is gold. Mo Farah was so impressive in his 5,000M and 10,000M victories. But I'm sure Britain's Lolo will be getting all the attention.
