There is another word that is totally confusing to the American Public.
Loyalty. Where does it end? Do we give up our lives for the benefit of someone else's agenda, right or wrong?
That is NOT loyalty. That is blind, dysfunctional denial. Plain and simple. I don't care if you are my mother. If you are hurting people and breaking the law, I am not behind your actions. If you carry it to a point where a stand needs to be taken, I will take a stand. AGAINST.
I am loyal to integrity, truth and sometimes even justice. If a person has earned my loyalty, they have to KEEP being the person who earned it in the first place. If they prove false? They stand alone.
