As an American and veteran, I am very pleased when condo- and homeowners fly the flag on Veterans Day. However, I am very displeased knowing that some of these owners plant impatiens, over-water their grass so that the roots rot and it has to be replaced frequently, and let their sprinklers overspray onto the road, bicycle lanes and sidewalks.
There is more to being a good American than just flying the flag. Good Americans act responsibly by preserving our valuable resources and showing concern about the safety of others.
