I wish we could do that in USA. We did after 9/11 for a while. USA flags were everywhere right after 9/11.
IMO Patriotism is not a a thing that comes and goes, that is just jingoism whipped up at the time. True Patriotism is deep within one's psyche.
It has been my observation that the two are rarely if ever found in the same person.
Flag waving is NOT patriotism. Patriotism is best seen among those who willingly volunteer to serve their country without fanfare or expectation of recognition. they do their bit, then get on with their lives.
Well, I respect your opinion, Seno. But since, I'm deaf, I'd love to join the US military really bad. I feel like a patriotism, look forward to defend my country but I can't, unfortunately. I'm too itching my hair about it. I was in the Navy JROTC for 4 years, tho...

When it come to Patriotism , i kinda agree with this quote :
Pablo Casals: The love of one's country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border?
It seems to me that those with the most patriotic respect for their flag is likely to understand respect the same fervour in other nations. It always concerns me when other countries' anthems are boo-d at sporting occasions. No-one supports their national team more than me, but I deplore that practice. It is completely unacceptable, and I always feel like apologising for the morons.
