nice website and great concept! Ignore the immigrant losers in this thread bashing patriotism.
Hahaha you actually made me laugh out loud, and I can't imagine you're serious so I'll just appreciate your good sense of humor


Was there some underlying "Screw America, this country sucks" tone to all the responses that went over my head?

In popular culture, patriotism now means xenophobia and an unquestioning support for self-reinforcing opinions. Political debate is not patriotic!

Many people also believe Jesus was caucasian with blue eyes

I just let people have their own opinions now

I don't like getting in political debates. But I am patriotic. I love our armed forces and thank them for what they do. I don't agree with a lot of the things the government is doing right now. But i do support the government. We put two things together we loved. Our country and our love for fashion and design (web and graphic). Since there are a lot of things going on right now like the tea party and other things we though it seemed like a perfect time to do it. We don't want to alienate ourselves to one group. Even though sooner or later that might happen. I'm the designer of the group and am not as big on politics and such as the other guys are. Just was wanting opinions on the designs and site. Guess I should have been more specific. But I'll take opinions on what you think about our idea too! thanks for taking a look!

He meant a bald-headed white guy like him. Others who don't look like a bald-headed white guy like him are not considered patriotic, such as myself, even though I was born here and my father had served almost 30 years in this country's military - probably more than all of his family combined. And yes, he really is bald-headed; I didn't make that up.

Maybe there's a generation gap. My particular generation would not wear these clothes. I feel that most of s2ki.com is in my generation, therefore this is a bad place to ask for opinions.

Try a harley/vette/nascar forum?

Actually the origin of the KKK garb is actually European Catholic in origin, in fact a variation of it still used today.
You meant the Orthodox Christians? I don't know the history behind the KKK's outfit, but I've seen Orthodox Christian priests wear similar-looking robes.

The only shirt I like is the roman numerals, everything else is not really my style. Actually, the patriotic look is not my style at all. Not to say that there's anything wrong with being patriotic; I served over 5 years in the Army.

Anyways, I did want to say that the site layout is very simple. You have a somewhat niche clothing line; Reminds me of a higher class faded glory fused with AE & A&F. Good luck with that.
