Protesting the National Anthem

Spread the love

  Dis­re­spect is what we are talk­ing about here.

Igno­rance as well but that is a fore gone con­clu­sion.

Dis­re­spect­ing the Nation­al Anthem and the Flag of the Unit­ed States of Amer­i­ca.

Why would any­one in their right mind attach the Nation­al Anthem to some kind of protest?

I have heard the argu­ments for doing this but none of that makes any sense because the premise for par­tic­i­pat­ing in the dis­re­spect is false.   The very idea that some­one one in the NFL mak­ing Mil­lions of dol­lars a year, protest­ing what amounts to a false nar­ra­tive is just ridicu­lous.   (if it were still 1950 you might have a bet­ter place to stand) but in a day and age when we have not only play­ers in the NFL that feel that they need to protest the nation­al anthem of the nation that they live in and where they make mil­lions of dol­lars a year and often own mul­ti­ple homes and cars is insan­i­ty.

Here is what they are protest­ing…

On this day in 1814, Fran­cis Scott Key pens a poem which is lat­er set to music and in 1931 becomes Amer­i­ca’s nation­al anthem, “The Star-Span­gled Ban­ner.” The poem, orig­i­nal­ly titled “The Defence of Fort McHen­ry,” was writ­ten after Key wit­nessed the Mary­land fort being bom­bard­ed by the British dur­ing the War of 1812.

Now tell me what the War of 1812 has to do with this fake protest­ing that is going on today?

Real­ly lets take a hard cold look at what they are try­ing to do here.

They are attack­ing our his­to­ry. 

They are attack­ing the rea­son why they are free to do what they want to do, not only the NFL play­ers, lest some­one come along and claim that racism is the base of this idea but also so many oth­er amer­i­cans of all col­ors and nation­al­i­ties and orig­i­na­tions, peo­ple of all walks of life are free to engage in becom­ing suc­cess­ful.

Cer­tain­ly that are many more that do not have the chances that many of these NFL pro­fes­sion­al ath­letes have had yet they some­how feel enti­tled to protest an entire nation and all of our mil­i­tary and every­thing that the flag stands for just to try to make some kind weak false flag nar­ra­tive?

Again Insan­i­ty.

Per­haps this is part­ly because our edu­ca­tion sys­tem has failed so many Amer­i­cans that we have gen­er­a­tion after gen­er­a­tion that have become igno­rant of our his­to­ry.

It real­ly is time that Amer­i­cans under­stand that there is a rea­son why the last few words of the Nation­al Anthem is “Let Free­dom Ring”
