Get the patriotism mug.
A person who supports or loves his country of birth.

However, to be honest, the only real patriots are the ones who fight for their country, and make the Ultimate Sacrifice.
"I love my country. I love this land. If you don't like America, then fuck off because we've had enough of your prejudice. Your hatred for this country makes my colleague's statement 'fuck the world' be so very true and well-spoken."

A form of self-worship, which permits dishonest politicians to persuade the people to surrender their liberties and even act against their own material interests. See example for details. Often a trait of people who have not themselves contributed to their country anything much that is positive, but are trying to derive honor vicariously. (I except from this definition the actions of combat veterans who sincerely believed, rightly or wrongly, that they were fighting for their country.)
"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." - George Bernard Shaw

One who stands united with their bretheren. Love for one's people (regardless of race or class). Often confused with delusions of supremacy do to misuse of term. An individual member of a "greater whole" striving for a common ideal. In the American sense, this ideal is anti-collectivist, anti-fascist, and pro-liberty.
A patriot realizes that sometimes liberty can only be achieved through mayhem. Israel Uber alles!

Basically defined in today's terms, a patriot is an individual, commonly witnessed in the United States, who has strong belief in his/her government, and will blindly oblige to what the government orders him or her to do. Patriots are often seen associated with firearms, whether it be on social media or in open-carry states like Texas. Not knowing that they are already oppressed and losing freedom fast, they "preach" their second amendment, which will soon be gone if no further action is taken to preserve the right. Common misconceptions are that patriots are very closely associated with red-necks and hill-billies. Although this may be true in most cases, patriots exist everywhere. Patriots are more-often-than-not, obligated to join the military for bragging rights.
Person 1: "I am a Patriot!"

Person 2"Congratulations, the government succeeded in brainwashing your ass so that you could go join the army and do the politicians' dirty bidding!"

Describes actions of one who is willing to self sacrifice for the genuine good of ones country. Sometimes mistakenly described as those with blind loyalty and unwilling to question authority.
The amount of flags on a front lawn does not determine how patriotic a person is. A healthy mistrust of government is truly patriotic.
