You'd know. > I think you're motto (and that of your compatriots) should be the old British one; "I'm alright > Jack." Which basically means, "I've got mine, and to Hell with all the > rest." (1) "You're" is a contraction of "you are", while "your" is the possesive. So you just wrote "you are motto", which suggests that you're trying to invent your (see the difference?) own new language. (2) "com·pa·tri·ot (k m-p tr - t, - t ). n. 1. A person from one's own country." I strongly suspect that you'll find more than one point of view in any country you examine; therefore your use of the word "compatriot" makes no more sense than "you are motto" did. And all this within a mere nine words! Tsk! (3) Too bad you're a humorless twit and don't know when you've been run up the flag pole to see if anyone will salute. (Alas for you, you're the only one who did.) (4) Your proposed motto doesn't fit the circumstances in any case. I'm quite concerned with mental health for instance; and with yours in particular. (5) Seek help.
