Death of Patriotism
Hey folks,
Today is a sad day. It truly is. From the 30s, America has in essence, been at war. We have faced down and fought some pretty evil people. Like today, when evil confronts the general population, our kids look toward heros to save the day. One of the greatest heros was Captain America.
Captain America was always a symbol of good verse the evils out there. A symbol of strength and might of America itself. A symbol of patriotism. Something for our kids to believe in and cheer for. Something to believe in.
Well, Captain America is dead. While we are at war with an enemy that WANTS to come to our very soil and kill as many men, women, and children they can, just because we breath, the hero that has always been there, is dead.

It's a funeral fit for a superhero.
In the drizzling rain at Arlington National Cemetery, thousands of grieving patriots solemnly watch as the pall bearers — Iron Man, the Black Panther, Ben Grimm and Ms. Marvel — carry a casket draped with an American flag.
Yes, folks, Captain America is dead and buried in the latest issue of Marvel Comics, due on newsstands the morning after Independence Day. After 66 years of battling villains from Adolf Hitler to the Red Skull, the red, white and blue leader of the Avengers was felled by an assassin's bullet on the steps of a New York federal courthouse.
He was headed to court after refusing to sign the government's Superhero Registration Act, a move that would have revealed his true identity. A sniper who fired from a rooftop was captured as police and Captain America's military escort were left to cope with chaos in the streets.
But the sniper didn't act alone, and didn't even fire the shot that killed the captain.
Writer Jeph Loeb has been busy working through the stages of grief in the most recent issues of Marvel Comics. A book centered on Wolverine dealt with denial; one with the Avengers covered anger; and Spider-Man battled depression.
With the story line so relevant to present-day politics, and the timing of the latest issue so precise, it's hard not to think the whole thing is one big slam on the government.
That is EXACTLY what it is. This idiot is using the death of a hero to kids for generations to make a political statement . Any doubts?
"Part of it grew out of the fact that we are a country that's at war, we are being perceived differently in the world," Loeb said. "He wears the flag and he is assassinated — it's impossible not to have it at least be a metaphor for the complications of present day."
Moron. So you are saying that America is dead? Are you saying that WE are the bad guys? Way to go. Let’s just complete kill any sign of patriotism for our kids.
But Loeb says he was working with more personal material: the death of his 17-year-old son from cancer.
"So many people have lost their sons and daughters over the years, for the greater good or to cancer or other horrible things," said Loeb, an executive producer for NBC's "Heroes." "I wanted this to be something people would identify with."
This is a poor attempt at another excuse. But again, it seems he brings up the war.
You know though, there may be another explanation. Super heros in general, go against the Liberal belief of “equality.” They can fly, stop bullets, they are stronger than the rest of us, and the are just better. The Libs cannot have that. We cannot have these people that are more powerful or more, well, anything. Maybe this is a trend that you will see more and more of. Like Spiderman depressed.
Now of course Marvel leaves the door open that he could return. They have to. They will bring him back if they get too much grief. But according to Loeb, that is NOT going to happen.
"The question is, how does the world continue without this hero?" he said. "If that story of his return gets told further down the line, great. But everyone's still been dealing with his loss.
"They aren't going to wake up and it's a dream, like it's some episode of 'Dallas.'"
Congratulations Jeph Loeb, for killing a symbol of America, in the time of war, you ARE the Idiot of the Week. Now be a good little lib or drone, and go kill off Wonder Woman. Doesn’t she work right for the Government? Then again, I have no idea, maybe she is dead already.
