We Will Stop Being the Land of the Free Once We Stop Being the Home of the BraveI know it's forbidden by your cult, but they aren't watching you here, so try to do some thinking for once. It may be painful for someone who's never used his brain before, but you'll be rewarded greatly and the initial pain won't last very long. You'll lose all your friends, but once you become rational, you'll see that as no great loss.Once These Juiced-Up Apes Kneel, We'll All Be Kneeling to Foreign MastersPlayers, this has no place in the workforce. Twitter your political beliefs. When you are on the field, stick your views behind you and do the job you are being paid for. We don't turn out in to see your opinion of our flag. Flagrant disregard for our anthem, wearing socks that disrespect our policemen will garner a reaction you aren't going to like, if you value your paychecks.
The point that politics doesn't belong in sports is well taken. Always has been.
So let's stop trotting out the national freaking anthem at events that have nothing to do with politics already. Not to mention the pom pom band forming an image of the flag at halftime because they were prostituted into it by the Pentagon.
Oh but we can't talk about that, right?
Having it both ways -- priceless.
The flag and the anthem are not political. They cannot be protested. Imagine two factions at a Baptist convention. One faction loses the vote on its issue. Disrespecting our flag is like that faction burning the Bible in protest.
I'll put this question out there for I think the seventh time now ---
--- where do you see anybody "disrespecting a flag"? Where do you even see a flag at all?
The "Star-Spangled Banner" is a poetic description of the flag itself, so insulting its theme song does mean insulting the flag.
Oh FUCKING BULLSHIT.
And for the record the Star Spangled Banner is actually about a battle. So you might want to break free of your own robot cult long enough to consider why your country wants to identify itself with war, the ultimate human Failure.
In order to cover their shame, all unpatriotic cowards pretend that war is an atrocity. The "Conscientious Objector" scam should be taken off the books.
