 Meaning of Flag Draped Coffin

All Americans should be given this lesson. Those who think that America is an arrogant nation should really reconsider that thought. Our founding fathers used GOD's word and teachings to establish our Great Nation and I think its high time Americans get re-educated about this Nation's history.

 

Pass it along and be proud of the country we live in and even more proud of those who serve to protect our 'GOD GIVEN' rights and freedoms

 
I hope you take the time to read this.....

To understand what the flag draped coffin really means....

Here is how to understand the flag that laid upon it and is surrendered to so many widows and widowers.

Do you know that at military funerals, the 21-gun salute stands for the sum of the numbers in the year 1776?



Have you ever noticed the honor guard pays meticulous attention to correctly folding the United States of America Flag 13 times? You probably thought it was to symbolize the original 13 colonies, but we learn something new every day!

The 1st fold of the flag is a symbol of life.


The 2nd fold is a symbol of the belief in eternal life.



The 3rd fold is made in honor and remembrance of the veterans departing the ranks who gave a portion of their lives for the defense of the country to attain peace throughout the world.


The 4th fold represents the weaker nature, for as American citizens trusting in God, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in time of war for His divine guidance


The 5th fold is a tribute to the country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, 'Our Country, in dealing with other countries, may she always be right; but it is still our country, right or wrong.'


The 6th fold is for where people's hearts lie. It is with their heart that They pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States Of America , and the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.

The 7th fold is a tribute to its Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that they protect their country and their flag against all her enemies, whether they be found within or without the boundaries of their republic.



The 8th fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day.


The 9th fold is a tribute to womanhood, and Mothers. For it has been through their faith, their love, loyalty and devotion that the character of the men and women who have made this country great has been molded.

The 10th fold is a tribute to the father, for he, too, has given his sons and daughters for the defense of their country since they were first born.



The 11th fold represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon and glorifies in the Hebrews eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.



The 12th fold represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in the Christians eyes, God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit.



The 13th fold, or when the flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost reminding them of their nations motto, 'In God We Trust.'



After the flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat, ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington, and the Sailors and Marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States, preserving for them the rights, privileges and freedoms they enjoy today.

There are some traditions and ways of doing things that have deep meaning. In the future, you'll see flags folded and now you will know why.

Share this with the children you love and all others who love what is referred to, the symbol of ' Liberty and Freedom.'

 

MAYBE THE SUPREME COURT SHOULD READ THIS EXPLANATION BEFORE THEY RENDER THEIR DECISION ON THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. FORWARD IT; MAYBE SOMEONE WITH THE NECESSARY POWER, OR POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL INFLUENCE, WILL GET IT TO THEM.

IN THE MEANTIME, MAY GOD PROTECT US ALWAYS.

ONE NATION, UNDER GOD, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR



 If we administer a good beating to jerks like this as an expression of OUR 1st amendment rights, we are not depriving them of constitutionaly garunteed rights to Life, If we don't get carried away, Liberty, we are not restraining them, or Pursuit of happiness, they can still PURSUE happiness with false teeth. We are simply placing a price on it as with many other forms of entertainment.

Not going to “win” these butt-nuggets over with any sort of reason or logic.  

However, I would definitely like to meet with them at some point in time to share with them the definition of abject violence.  

While this would not likely change their point of view, I would rationalize it as a therapeutic or "feel good" measure for myself.  I agree ... good entertainment is at a premium these days.

This works on many "Potential criminals"
When decency or respect for others is not effective, many times results can be acheived through fear of punishment.

What it boils down to is that these humps need the "spanking" that their shitforbrains parents never gave them.  Keep in mind that when I say spanking, I don't mean something to go along with the fur-covered handcuffs and ball gags ...  this "spanking" translates to full scale ass kicking. 

Something like 90% of all assaults go unsolved ... hmmmm.  Like the odds.

Only those who are ignorant to what sacrificing for your country means would do or allow such a thing in the name of "free speech".  American warriors shed a tear when the ignorant desecrate the very symbol they have pledged their life to when it is trampled or burned or spit upon.  Freedom is not free and there are some who will never understand the meaning of blood shed on a battlefield or the tear shed on a field of stars surrounded by blue supported by stripes of red and white.  

God Bless America

I like the idea of tasering them, that way you can re use your targets

I cannot express how angry this particular show of disrespect makes me.

When I think that Americans struggled, while mortally wounded, to prevent this symbol of our country from even touching the ground during wars fought to protect the 1A and all of our rights, I am enraged.

I don't know whether to be grateful  that I am not there or furious that I am not.\

I know it's just a symbol...but it isn't what is happening to the symbol that angers me, but rather, the disrespect show to all those who fought and died to defend what that symbol stands for.
