Yup. The lefties show respect to a flag representing an anti-white, Marxist, terrorist group intent on destroying the very fabric of our country, yet refuse to stand for the American flag.

Liberal Reverse World.

Last time I checked didn't Biden order it? Even if I am wrong, that option makes the world view us as fools.

Not seeing that in the original post.

What is the source of your claim?

Playing the national anthem at sporting events is frankly a bizarre tradition. At international sporting events, playing the anthems of both teams before the event makes sense (I guess, although it still is a little eye-roll-inducing) but at regular sporting events it's just weird.

People go to the games to watch the sporting event not to listen to the national anthem. Why does anyone care if players take a knee or not. And if you going to say it's disrespectful then you have to call everyone standing in the concession stands for beer and food disrespectful as well. Seriously, who cares.

It’s pretty simple. If you don’t like America and what it stands for and you refuse to honor our national anthem, you are free to get the expletive out of the USA at your earliest convenience. Don’t let the door hit you in the arse on your way out.

Like critical race theory? That's being forced down everyone's throats. Lib hyprocrisy.

I am glad you can speak on all fans of sporting events. I would love to see the survey you took.
