RE: The National Anthem at Sporting Events is Silly. Stop It.

in #war7 years ago

Maybe the problem is that we let the politicians and/or the MSM decide what political topics will be discussed and when.

I agree wholeheartedly with your post, and irritate people to no end and every school function or any event, by not standing like an idiot for a song or pledge. Like they really matter!??

Please ask me why: any one of you puppets... Sadly few do, mostly get dirty looks, sometimes not so gentle nudges.

We have regressed to a Nation of intellectual infants that have to be told what to think, when to think it, when to stand, when to sit, and when to feel outrage, and where to direct it.

Sort:  

Yes, that is definitely a big part of the problem, letting others do the thinking for us. I can't remember the last time I was at something where they played the anthem. If I'm not in the bathroom I'll probably just stay seated.

Thanks, it's nice to know I'm not so rare with my views on this.
