Flag Vandalism In Oceanside

Three Hispanic teenagers vandalized 3 American flags recently in Oceanside, CA. One of the flags was owned by a 91 year old WWII veteran. By one of the flags was a camera. They were filmed doing the damage. One of the flags had "f*ck America" spray painted on it. At this point, all I can say is this: It is not America's fault that you are young, confused and angry. It is not America's fault that you are bored. It is not America's fault that you are poor. It is not America's fault that you have family disruption. It is not America's fault that you were not taught the importance of respect for the property of others. It is not America's fault that you are not performing well at school. It is not America's fault that you are not a talented athlete. It is not America's fault that you know nothing about Biblical guidelines. On the contrary, America provides opportunities. But you need to go look for them. In America, there are many opportunities for sound Bible studies. There are ball parks, grassy areas, libraries, beautiful beaches (especially where you are) and much more. Get yourself a part time job. Volunteer somewhere. Assist someone while they are baby sitting. Do your homework. Get excellent grades. Go out for Oceanside High's football team. They have a glorious tradition. Maybe you have some untapped potential. Get busy doing something constructive. Get some new friends. Are all of these things out of your reach? No. "With God all things are possible." Forget religion......find God.
