An just hope we can restore that freedom once the angry orange man is behind bars. So we can get back to rebuilding what has been destroyed by him and his administration. It won't be easy and we certainly have to work hard. But, we have to start some where.

It’s 2021 boys. We’ve already seen a lot of shit in such a short amount of time. Let’s see how she flies gentlemen. I’m willing to be proud of that old flag, and it’s up to us to keep her up and flying. I’m not giving up, even with all that has happened. God Bless America and God Bless our old flag 🇺🇸. Who’s with me?
America has become so diverse in every sense of the word that no one knows 100% what America is supposed to be. I believe that America is dead. The land my ancestors conquered is no longer truly ours. It's nothing like it was at birth and it's nothing like it was even in the 1950s. Our history, our heritage is now being destroyed. But if we just hold on we can make America something new. Awaken the American dream. It is our modern day Manifest Destiny. We've lost alot, but we've yet to lose our blood. We the people have always been the embodiment of the Union.
Me and my Forty Eight star flag, look at you and your fifty. And we say, the the fire, through the flames, through everything inbetween, I’ll be damned, my father will be damn, and my Grandftaher would be damned, to see our flag be burned.
@@letsgoblue9596 On youtube look up and listen to This Old Flag, told by Johnny Cash. If you really want to be shocked and hear the truth put out several decades back, listen to " If I were the devil" narrated by Paul Harvey. If that isn't a prophecy come true, I don't know what is.
@@marcussmith3969 I don’t care what political side your on, that’s exactly what some Democrats and some Republicans are trying to do. With their respective News shows protecting them.
Johnny Cash once said during an interview " They have a right to burn the flag, well I have a right to bear arms and will shoot if they try to burn mine"
Fucking A right! We we're once a proud nation, not sure what happened but once my daughter said she wouldn't stand for the anthem in school, I took her ass to D.C. to learn WHY we stand! My Pop was a disabled veteran from Korea, her god father served, I served and am also a disabled vet! I pounded respect into her head! At one time she was gonna be a nurse and work at the VA. She decided to be a teacher instead.
@berneyvonk1 it DOESNT matter the same point was made leave my country ass alone. I'll talk however I please. DON'T be petty and correct someone's grammar.
Send in the Marines!!! @Tigerheart101 I don't know if I should laugh or cry at your comment!!! I think I'll do both. I hope that you have a wonderful and blessed day my friend and please stay safe!!! 😊😊 🐧🐧
As a Brit I know we take a verbal beating in this song, but, I’m just as proud as your Ragged Old Flag as I am my own. Sure, we have had our ups and downs both as enemies and as allies but much of what is said of old glory in this video is true of our own Union Jack and I can’t think of any flags other than those of the US, Canada or the Anzacs that I would rather fly beside our own. Brothers in Arms forever 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦🇦🇺🇳🇿❤️ Edited to share the love with our Pacific brothers and mates down under, I hadn’t forgotten about you but didn’t think so many of you would listen to this track. Further edited: My thoughts and prayers are with you all today on September 11th, one of my mother’s colleagues sons was killed that awful day.
I heard a good saying about the flag and the people burning it "the people burning the flag had never been handed a folded one" I don't know who said it but it is one of the most true quotes ever
I'm a custodian at my hometown courthouse and I proudly raise her up every morning and take her down every night. I saw Johnny perform this at the Nebraska State fair in 1980. At the end when he says "On second thought, I do like to brag cause I'm mighty proud of that ragged old flag" they took the spotlight off of him and shone it on the huge flag on the wall of the sports center where he was performing. I still get choked up every time I think about that.
Despite what people try to say or make it seem to be. This kind of proud patriotism is coming back, from all walks of life. White, black, hell even my Mexican friends. They know a good thing when they see one. This country isn't for sell
I get chills when Johnny says “because she’s been through the fire before and I believe she can take a lot more” I love this country and I love my fellow Americans who feel the same way as me 🇺🇸❤️
Thank you. It means allot to see the people of this nation are willing to stand up for the same things our men and women in the armed forces believe in.
I'm a Canadian, an Albertan. I'm pretty damn well informed on global geopolitics and history. Not since 1812 have our nations squabbled. You've been damn good neighbours to us, better than anyone I could ever ask for.

@@c3pfett Brad just pointed out something that changed the pledge to how we know it today, no need to be a dick about it. Fun fact that a majority of politicians come from predominantly caucasian genealogy and a few other ethnic makeups whom were usually raised in a Christian household, so it makes sense for such prayers to come around.

Far too many have forgotten what this flag stands for; 600,000 dead in the civil war. The only land we kept in two world wars was used to bury our dead; who fought to free Europe and the world twice. Dont forget Korea and Vietnam and now the middle east. We owe a debt to young men who went to war and never came home; or came home with scars both seen and unseen. God Bless them all; and God Bless America.
@Mike Bastiat You learn your history. The southern states secceded because the North didn't want slavery to expand into new states. They considered it part of their economy, their culture and way of life and were unwilling to give it up. The United States was the original nation from which the South split away and Lincoln had a duty to preserve the union. I know Lincoln expanded presidential power and retracted habeas corpus and so did Jefferson Davis. You can't talk about the Union enslaving people when the South was all about enslaving anyone of African descent
I still cry when I hear this song. I took the oath to protect This Nation from enemies foreign and domestic. And my oath didn't expire when my enlistment did.
MY father, all my uncles, my three sons, my son in-law and myself are all combat veterans. Serving our great nation in the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corp in WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, Iraq and Afghanistan. In fact my relatives have been American fighting men from the time of our Revolution. My grandsons are carrying on that tradition this very day. I know many families with the same history as mine and I am sure that there will be many more in the future. We love our old USA! To our Canadian neighbors I wish to say that I served in Afghanistan and areas in the middle east with some of Canada's armed forces and am proud to call them my brothers and sisters.
Yesteryear, when a nation's flag showed up on the battlefield, the flagbearer was the main target. When the Star Spangled Banner was written, the terms of battles were the flag falls, the British win. And we have citizens consider our national flag that represents our Republic nothing more than pieces of cloth.

...And the symbols of forgiveness such as all the statues, flags and monuments that were allowed to be put up in places of prominence to remind people and show future generations the COST OF WAR!
I am a Canadian. I love seeing the American flag flying in the wind and I love this song. And, the US Constitution is the greatest document ever written!
I agree my neighbor and friend. Next to the Holy Bible, the US Constitution is the greatest document ever written. If our nation was led by true Constitutionalists instead of corrupt politicians, the US would stand alone as the greatest nation in history. Only the corruption and ignorance of politicians stand in our path of success. Even our conservative party is infiltrated with corruption and foolish ideologies. May be time to take it all back and start fresh again.

Sadly, the snowflakes would call him racist. That's just how fucked up our world is today, it's so progressive, that they're actually not making any "progress."
Monarchism is much different than socialism and communism. Monarchism is very far right, and believe in having a hereditary ruler who rules for the good of the people with complete power. Socialism is where the government steals money from everyone, distributes it, and makes everyone equally poor. Socialism is all about being PC as well, and making the rich, who worked tirelessly to earn their money, just as poor as everyone else by stealing their money. Monarchism isn't hte same as communism/socialism, they are MUCH MUCH MUCH different beliefs.
You should Have seen us during WWll ! My Parents were from then ! We were a Proud Nation Then ! But that’s when DemoRats started to change there ways !
@stevesanzari7294 yes its so sad to see what the democrats and sleepy joe are doin to the US , TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸 ❤️ If I was American Trump would be getting my vote 🗳
You know, this song brings many a tear to my eyes. To think all this country has been through, yet every year we slip further away from what we were supposed to stand for. I had many a family member who died or were injured in the name of this great nation. My maternal grandfather immigrated here from Italy and the day he gained his citizenship pearl harbor happened, so he volunteered to use his skills as a mechanic in service of his new home, in his lifetime he saw the rights he enjoyed stripped away, and had he been alive today he would be appalled. I love this nation and should the need arise, I would do just what papa Sicilia did many moons ago, and dig my boots in to keep my friends, my family, and hell, even my enemies safe and comfortable.
I know right!!! I always get misty eyed when I see that!!! It breaks my heart seeing all that is going on right now. We've taken 10 steps forward and 15 steps back. SMFFH!!! We shall overcome this as well!!!
I am of Hispanic heritage, third generation Texan. My family has fought for this country in WW 2, Koreae, Vietnam, Gulf Wars and Afghanistan. I am a proud American. I love mu country and my flag. It will always wave.
I am very proud of our flag and thankful that I had the chance to serve our country from 1974 to 1999 as a united states marine retiring with full honors in 1999ad a marine captain
I'm a US Army veteran who served our country during the Vietnam era. I will ALWAYS honor that old flag whenever our anthem is played. Too many Americans died to keep this country free. I joined the military when the U.S. started pulling back troops from Vietnam in 1973. I love this country and dying for it was never a problem for me. I know that Vietnam was a very unpopular war. Which war is popular? All wars are bad. There are things that go on that soldiers returning home don't want to talk about. This country has been through a lot and we are still going through more. We should always honor those who died for this country. I hope and pray that our country will heal and continue to be a land of opportunity for all people. We are all, afterall, children of God. God bless that old flag and the United States of America.
Thank you for your service. My dad did two deployments in Viet Nam. Civilians just don't understand what military life is about and the price that is paid to keep them free. My dad refused to talk about what he experienced. May God bless you and you find peace.
Thank you Armando!! I served 20 yrs, did my tour in the Middle East and I would do it again God bless you and all our veterans we can leave this earth knowing we did what we thought was right in the face of adversity ,3 of my 4 kids also served
Thank you Armando. You have my respect. Coming back from Iraq I was greeted by vets at the Bangor airport. I felt undeserving because many of them were Vietnam Vets who never got a welcome home like they gave me. Thank you and your brothers for serving our country.
I can't listen to this without tearing up normally, but today the tears are flowing thinking about the hell this country is going thru RIGHT NOW. We disrespect our vets, we crap on our country all while the countless patriots who gave their lives fighting for us are spinning in their graves. God help us.
The Devil came to DC. He's been there a while. The Democrats are his most faithful companions. The corruption has gotten worse and worse, and really came ahead with the triad: Obama, Clintons, and the Bidens. With all the illegal aliens Biden has flooded into the country, the country going broken from gov printed dollars, not sure there will even be an America as we've known it. The governments answer is to tell us all to shut-up, join the WEF, and enjoy communism.

I will try my best to answer whoever does. But something to add, while the comments calling me brother are nice, I am a teenage girl. 😂
Seen the flag getting burned in the news I looked at the flag outside my home and said to myself it’s really been through a lot but still stands tall and beautiful with all its rips and faded colors

@@danielhendry5375 Its what makes them beautifull. Not the pristine and clean high chairs of government, but the piss sweat and blood shed in her name. I love my own country, but having visited the US, having made many friends from over there, i can without a doubt atest that the "Land of the free" is not a slogan, you are the most freedom loving people in the world, and for that alone i admire you. The kids that are rioting in the streets are just misguided kids... if they trully lived in tyrrany... well they wouldn't be pulling the crap they are... try that in most EU countries, see how it works out... Keep your heads up folks, it gets worse but it gets better.
A man who couldn't see the beautiful country he sang about,but still knew what it stood for,a man who faced racism on a grand scale,grew up a poor black child who grew up in the midst of segregation...and still loved this country. Beautiful.
Lefty Frizzell, Merle Haggard, George Jones, Hank Locklin, Ray Price, Faron Young, are just a few of the best country vocalists that come to my mind. Johnny Cash is for sure one of Country's best writers.
On July 4, 1776, our forefathers solemnly declared their independence and laid the foundation for the freedom we enjoy today. They bravely fought for the rights and dignity of every individual, and their vision of a free and just nation continues to light our path. Let us continue to stand for liberty and justice in their spirit, bearing the pride and responsibility that come with our precious independence.
As a Vietnam Air Force veteran this poem means a lot to me, brings a few tears to my eyes. I am certainly proud of that flag and proud to have served my country. We are going through some difficult times right now, however, I have faith that we will overcome the challenges...we always have! God bless this great country.
People do not understand that despite its faults one of the greatest American exports is freedom and this came with a great price to the American people. PS I am not American but I would like to believe that there are people in my country who love their country as much as some Americans love theirs.
Dude ur stupid he only went to jail for pills hes only sang at a prison he never lived in a prison unless you count him doing pills and it fucking his life up but other than that hes never been to prison
She went to Korean and Vietnam, also to Iraq and Afghanistan, she went where she was sent by her Uncle Sam. Saw where the lyrical flow could fit those two in rather well and figured I'd humbly add them for my fellow OIF and OEF Vets.
I literally get tears in my eyes every time I hear this. I'm a very proud Veteran and I love that flag more than words can say. No matter where I was deployed I always had our flag there. My oath of enlistment will end when I die. U.S. Army 1988-2006 91B Combat Medic/12B Combat Engineer/88M Convoy Driver/19D Cavalry Scout. I love my country dearly and I fought hard for it. I hope I made a difference, I really tried my heart out too.

Wonderful rendition. Can anyone tell a story better. Your ragged old flag is priceless. Greetings from England. We have our own ragged old flag. Ours stood with yours many times.
Thanks. Flags are emotive things. Some are respected. Others are scary. Some are transient. Some have gone. Yours and ours are still here for a reason. Freedom and democracy.
Do you see my picture? I served in the Republic of Vietnam 1968. We were told we couldn't fly our USA Flag. I spent a fortnight in a field hospital. We were under constant attack. I wrote home and told my family to fly the Flag. My grandfather put one up and flew it until he died. I'm bitter at government people telling me I couldn't fly my Flag! When I got home, I would attend high school football games. The bands would play the Star Spangled Banner and I'd cry remembering the sacrifice of many. The crowd would clap, but I couldn't while we were still at war. Now, after the law was passed that veterans can salute our Flag, I proudly salute, but I don't clap afterwards because we still have troops in the field of war. God bless the USA.
Thank you for your service. I wish Vietnam turned out differently. I remember watching a documentary on youtube about on Hue City. During the battle the U.S. Marines recaptured the Imperial Palace. The U.S. Higher ups ordered that no U.S. flag was to fly on the flag pole. But one of the Marines happened to have a U.S. flag on him, and the Marines rised the flag over the Imperial Palace. A Luietenet (or Captian) told the Higher ups about the flag, and the Highers ups started barking orders about taking it down. The Luietenet told the Highers ups "Sir, if you what that flag down. Then come tell them your self." It's been while since I saw that video. But it's on youtabe. I think it comes from the History Channel, but I am not to sure.
@@fristnamelastname5549 Kind Sir, I was drafted and dead set against the conflict. I remember thinking I was like a British Redcoat in Vietnam. I liked the Vietnamese people. I did my duty. We live under the Rule of Law in the USA. We just have some bad people. Eaglegards...
@politicalboffin Ahem few things first off yes I disagree with the Vietnam war & the draft and thank you for your service willing or not. As for the last part... F*ck off
I’m different, but not by much, you had no choice but still fought. I said screw it and threw away the collages that I had scholarships to to fight for this free land. My Grandfather took one loom at his Red White and Black stripes and said, that’s the flag I stand for. He then took a look at his Union Jack, and said, I’ll be damned to see my Red White and Black stand for that. He fought, for all he was worth. His son, my father, decided that Red wasn’t good, and so off to Korea he went and fought. Then there’s me, but not by draft, no, I chose to fight, for the freedom my Parents saw in this country. So yes, God bless the Red White and Blue, the Maple Leaf, The Union Jack, The Red White and Black of the once great Empire, and God bless my home, of Orange White and Green.
This.. is why I won’t stand down to some random smug teenager on the internet saying America is bad, sure it’s flawed, beaten and burnt, the pickle we’re in isn’t helping either, but to look upon that flag, and say “what a beautiful rag.”

The land my ancestors conquered is no longer truly ours. It's nothing like it was at birth and it's nothing like it was even in the 1950s. Our history, our heritage is now being destroyed. But if we just hold on we can make America something new. Awaken the American dream. It is our modern day Manifest Destiny. We've lost alot, but we've yet to lose our blood. We the people have always been the embodiment of the Union.

She is on fire right now, my fellow Americans. But I’ll be damned if I’ll let them take her down.

Fucking A right! We we're once a proud nation, not sure what happened but once my daughter said she wouldn't stand for the anthem in school, I took her ass to D.C. to learn WHY we stand!

As a Brit I know we take a verbal beating in this song, but, I’m just as proud as your Ragged Old Flag as I am my own.
Sure, we have had our ups and downs both as enemies and as allies but much of what is said of old glory in this video is true of our own Union Jack and I can’t think of any flags other than those of the US, Canada or the Anzacs that I would rather fly beside our own.

I'm a custodian at my hometown courthouse and I proudly raise her up every morning and take her down every night. I saw Johnny perform this at the Nebraska State fair in 1980. At the end when he says "On second thought, I do like to brag cause I'm mighty proud of that ragged old flag" they took the spotlight off of him and shone it on the huge flag on the wall of the sports center where he was performing. I still get choked up every time I think about that.
Despite what people try to say or make it seem to be. This kind of proud patriotism is coming back, from all walks of life. White, black, hell even my Mexican friends. They know a good thing when they see one. This country isn't for sell

@Mike Bastiat can you just shut up and let us enjoy it? Stop acting like an idiot
@Mike Bastiat It was. Anything against slavery will always evidently be a good thing
@Mike Bastiat You learn your history. The southern states secceded because the North didn't want slavery to expand into new states. They considered it part of their economy, their culture and way of life and were unwilling to give it up. The United States was the original nation from which the South split away and Lincoln had a duty to preserve the union. I know Lincoln expanded presidential power and retracted habeas corpus and so did Jefferson Davis. You can't talk about the Union enslaving people when the South was all about enslaving anyone of African descent
I still cry when I hear this song. I took the oath to protect This Nation from enemies foreign and domestic. And my oath didn't expire when my enlistment did.

Yesteryear, when a nation's flag showed up on the battlefield, the flagbearer was the main target. When the Star Spangled Banner was written, the terms of battles were the flag falls, the British win. And we have citizens consider our national flag that represents our Republic nothing more than pieces of cloth.

Sadly, the snowflakes would call him racist. That's just how fucked up our world is today, it's so progressive, that they're actually not making any "progress."
Prussian Monarchist
But you're a monarchist why aren't you on their side, the side who want to establish monarchist/socialism/communism?
Monarchism is much different than socialism and communism. Monarchism is very far right, and believe in having a hereditary ruler who rules for the good of the people with complete power. Socialism is where the government steals money from everyone, distributes it, and makes everyone equally poor. Socialism is all about being PC as well, and making the rich, who worked tirelessly to earn their money, just as poor as everyone else by stealing their money. Monarchism isn't hte same as communism/socialism, they are MUCH MUCH MUCH different beliefs.
To be honest, I'm glad he's not here. I'd hate for him to see what's become of this beautiful nation.

You know, this song brings many a tear to my eyes. To think all this country has been through, yet every year we slip further away from what we were supposed to stand for. I had many a family member who died or were injured in the name of this great nation. My maternal grandfather immigrated here from Italy and the day he gained his citizenship pearl harbor happened, so he volunteered to use his skills as a mechanic in service of his new home, in his lifetime he saw the rights he enjoyed stripped away, and had he been alive today he would be appalled. I love this nation and should the need arise, I would do just what papa Sicilia did many moons ago, and dig my boots in to keep my friends, my family, and hell, even my enemies safe and comfortable.

I'm a US Army veteran who served our country during the Vietnam era. I will ALWAYS honor that old flag whenever our anthem is played. Too many Americans died to keep this country free. I joined the military when the U.S. started pulling back troops from Vietnam in 1973. I love this country and dying for it was never a problem for me. I know that Vietnam was a very unpopular war. Which war is popular? All wars are bad. There are things that go on that soldiers returning home don't want to talk about. This country has been through a lot and we are still going through more. We should always honor those who died for this country. I hope and pray that our country will heal and continue to be a land of opportunity for all people. We are all, afterall, children of God. God bless that old flag and the United States of America.

definitely the most bad ass
Lefty Frizzell, Merle Haggard, George Jones, Hank Locklin, Ray Price, Faron Young, are just a few of the best country vocalists that come to my mind. Johnny Cash is for sure one of Country's best writers.

I literally get tears in my eyes every time I hear this. I'm a very proud Veteran and I love that flag more than words can say. No matter where I was deployed I always had our flag there. My oath of enlistment will end when I die. U.S. Army 1988-2006 91B Combat Medic/12B Combat Engineer/88M Convoy Driver/19D Cavalry Scout. I love my country dearly and I fought hard for it. I hope I made a difference, I really tried my heart out too.
Thank you for your service my friend.
I salute to you

@@smokeymoe842 No he didn't, and people like you tarnish this country.
I'm 60 years old and hearing this always brings a tear to my eyes and damn proud of it!
Amen Brother 🙏 59 here 🇺🇸
Every TRUE American should take those words to heart. That way he or she can't be swayed by the blandishments and sophistry of demagogues like Bonespurs, the "Squad" and the like.
Wonderful rendition. Can anyone tell a story better. Your ragged old flag is priceless. Greetings from England. We have our own ragged old flag. Ours stood with yours many times.
Thanks. Flags are emotive things. Some are respected. Others are scary. Some are transient. Some have gone. Yours and ours are still here for a reason. Freedom and democracy.
Do you see my picture? I served in the Republic of Vietnam 1968. We were told we couldn't fly our USA Flag. I spent a fortnight in a field hospital. We were under constant attack. I wrote home and told my family to fly the Flag. My grandfather put one up and flew it until he died. I'm bitter at government people telling me I couldn't fly my Flag! When I got home, I would attend high school football games. The bands would play the Star Spangled Banner and I'd cry remembering the sacrifice of many. The crowd would clap, but I couldn't while we were still at war. Now, after the law was passed that veterans can salute our Flag, I proudly salute, but I don't clap afterwards because we still have troops in the field of war. God bless the USA.
Thank you for your service. I wish Vietnam turned out differently. I remember watching a documentary on youtube about on Hue City.
During the battle the U.S. Marines recaptured the Imperial Palace. The U.S. Higher ups ordered that no U.S. flag was to fly on the flag pole. But one of the Marines happened to have a U.S. flag on him, and the Marines rised the flag over the Imperial Palace. A Luietenet (or Captian) told the Higher ups about the flag, and the Highers ups started barking orders about taking it down. The Luietenet told the Highers ups "Sir, if you what that flag down. Then come tell them your self."
It's been while since I saw that video. But it's on youtabe. I think it comes from the History Channel, but I am not to sure.
@@fristnamelastname5549 Kind Sir, I was drafted and dead set against the conflict. I remember thinking I was like a British Redcoat in Vietnam. I liked the Vietnamese people. I did my duty. We live under the Rule of Law in the USA. We just have some bad people. Eaglegards...
@politicalboffin
Ahem few things first off yes I disagree with the Vietnam war & the draft and thank you for your service willing or not.
As for the last part... F*ck off
Thank you very much SIR for your services and sacrifices and to your wife and children GOD BLESS THE USA 🇺🇸
I’m different, but not by much, you had no choice but still fought. I said screw it and threw away the collages that I had scholarships to to fight for this free land. My Grandfather took one loom at his Red White and Black stripes and said, that’s the flag I stand for. He then took a look at his Union Jack, and said, I’ll be damned to see my Red White and Black stand for that. He fought, for all he was worth. His son, my father, decided that Red wasn’t good, and so off to Korea he went and fought. Then there’s me, but not by draft, no, I chose to fight, for the freedom my Parents saw in this country. So yes, God bless the Red White and Blue, the Maple Leaf, The Union Jack, The Red White and Black of the once great Empire, and God bless my home, of Orange White and Green.
Greetings from Germany. Stay strong, wise and proud🇩🇪🤝🇺🇸
Hell yeah and gott segna
Johnny Cash tells you how it is a real American
Few and far between these days.
This.. is why I won’t stand down to some random smug teenager on the internet saying America is bad, sure it’s flawed, beaten and burnt, the pickle we’re in isn’t helping either, but to look upon that flag, and say “what a beautiful rag.”
Me too man
