Warbler, is there any level of protest you would accept during the playing of the national anthem?
No. It is not a time for protest.
Says who?
says me. The Anthem is a time for reflection and honoring the country and what it stands for.
That’s what it is for you. You’ve chosen to make it that.
And so has every other American until last year!
Uh, no. Not every American was on your side until they suddenly weren’t last year.
Well just about every other American, until this fad began.
