Johnny Cash - Ragged Old Flag REACTION! Oh MY!

[@glassontherocks]

When I joined the Marines in 1971 an old Man that I had delivered papers to as a boy took his flag down from his pole and expertly folded it and gave it to me. He said you can give it back when you get home. I carried it everywhere when I could and put it in a safe hands when I could not. I returned to my home town with the flag still folded. I went to give it back to the dear old Man and he had passed away. I am 70 now and I still have it. My flag and all others are precious to me.

Thank you for becoming a naturalized American! Your pride is justified and appreciated. As a note of something you may not know, there is a ceremony concerning the disposal of worn out or damaged flags. All of them should be disposed of properly. Your local VFW, American Legion post, or even Boy or Girl Scout troop can steer you in the right direction. Most of them will collect the old flags and hold a ceremony periodically.

You are absolutely correct this is the history of America wrapped up in one flag. And Johnny Cash very probably disapproved of Vietnam I would be very surprised if he didn't. This particular song always makes me cry.

[@pitademon]

he is telling the story of America. He is telling as to WHY we should show our flag respect. To see the positivity of it, no showing the negativity. Why we should not 'take a knee' or be disrespectful. the flag many talked about hanging in a museum is 'Old Glory'. It flew during the war of 1812 and when the Star Spangled Banner was written. Also each color has a meaning about honor, blood, and hope. If you like this song try his song 'Gods Gonna cut you down', look at all those donating time.

I'm a 71 year old Veteran who was a pilot their whole life. Yes I am old school and will be up front with you I have never liked hip hop or Rapp. I stumbled across your videos just a couple days ago and started watching because O think the first one I saw was " "Unchained Melody" which was so much of a personal song I leaned on when my Lady passed back in 2004. That video and others I have watched about Johnny Cash has really gotten me to like you a lot, how your heart is, and how you are a really good man. I have been so happy seeing you enjoy the same things us "baby boomers" did in the 60's, 70,s, 80,s. So I became one of your subscribers. Can't say though if I'll ever want to listen to Rapp, but for your music I might give it a try. Keep up the good work. God Bless you and family. JOE. Lake Havasu, Arizona.

Your introduction to this video, before you played the, “RAGGED OLD FLAG” video clip, and your sage discussion afterward, was the most important and significant reaction I have ever seen! You are TRULY, wise, beyond your years! You renew my hopes and dreams for the future generations. I'm feeling my own mortality at age 73, and I was beginning to fear that my hopes for the future, would die with me. --->Some people could live for a million years, and never understand what you just explained in LESS than 15 minutes. Actually, you nailed it in the first 8 minutes, before you played the Johnny Cash video clip! But, your post-video discussion, really BROKE IT DOWN, for anyone who didn't understand. It was EPIC! ---> If only the World could see through your eyes, well, let's just say, we would FIND THE WAY to trust and love people, instead of turning, FIRST, to THE WAYS OF WAR. ---> We have a lot of work ahead of us, but, If you have any doubts, please know that, the World is a better place, because of YOU.

He is talking about YOUR flag, our flag as Americans, yes he is giving us some history, so we should have pride in our country. Our country was not perfect, be we are always working on it to become better.

[@chadvanderven144]

Johnny was a left-leaning patriot. He knew the system and the country wasn't perfect - moreover, he knew it would never be. But, he loved that this country seeks to be perfect. That we try. That we'll fight for, and die for, our freedom, and other folks' freedom. That we have the courage to fix our own problems and put in the work. Johnny loved THAT America.

[@llschnitz]

I don't know that I would characterize him as a "Left Leaning Patriot". Sure he was against the Viet Name war, as were people from both major parties. And its true he made it his mission to speak out on behalf of the mistreated and the marginalized. Conservatives do that too. They don't necessarily believe that more government taxation and spending and regulation is the answer to helping the poor. And as a Bible-believing Christian, I am not sure what his stance would be on social and sexual issues. He definitely loved his country.

[@shannonebarb1659]
