What a loser. This guy has made a gazillion dollars living here, and it's asking too much for him to stand up during the national anthem.

He does have some good music, however.

Looks like he was exercising his First Amendment rights. Why would you have a problem with our Constitution…?

United States Flag Code

"According to United States Code found in Title 4, Chapter 1 These laws"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_p...#United_States

Just like yelling "fire" in a crowded movie theater.

What about the OVER 20,000 ILLEGAL gun laws on the books which violate the 2nd Amendment?

You left out this part…

Quote:
The United States Flag Code establishes advisory rules for display and care of the national flag of the United States of America. It is Chapter 5 of Title 4 of the United States Code (4 U.S.C. § 5 et seq). Although this is a U.S. federal law,[1] the code is not mandatory: it uses non-binding language like "should" and "custom" throughout and does not prescribe any penalties for failure to follow the guidelines.[2]

He is a Colin Kaepernick sympathizer.

I read another article about it yesterday.

He lost some of my respect, but I'm sure he's not suffering because of it. LOL


ETA this article has some info: https://www.themix.net/2022/11/john-...fore-nfl-game/

So is farting a big, juicy one in a small room full of friends after having eaten a dozen mega tacos.


But it doesn't mean it's appropriate or showing any respect for anyone around you. It's your constitutional right to be a dick. So be one. Just don't expect anyone around you to have any respect at all for you after having been one.
