Read: Even though lsu women's bb team was improperly blamed and yall's governor jumped the gun and wount' up getting shite on his finger, even though I personally think not standing for the anthem is a cheap, chicken shite, faux, tired way of virtue-signaling a demonstration, maybe it's the libertarian in me, maybe it's the rebel blood that courses through my veins from ancestors past, but the more a government compels and forces me BY LAW to do something as fundamentally human as standing, performing a civilian salute, and singing that government's anthem to them in a stadium funded and subsidized with my tax dollars, FORCEFULLY UNDER THE THREAT OF IMPRISONMENT OR FINE, the more I'm going to tell them to eat shite.

The more it will fuel my putrid hate for a politician, a bureaucrat, and those who admire them and their propensity to pass laws. I hate all 3 with every fiber of my being (amplified the closer the clock strikes to 12 am, April 15th), and laws that would literally compel me to speak words would only amplify it even more, and it should for you too.

If you will go quietly into the night and happily be mandated BY LAW to sing to your police state - because make no mistake, when politicians are wishing it to be law, it goes from being an ode to our fallen heroes and our fallen, once great country, to a ballad for the police state- then you have crossed the communist line. However so small and benign it is to you, it is a line that you, we, are allowing our government to cross every time the gavel falls in our state capitals and Washington DC.

No free man, no free THINKING man, should ever be forced to do the above by their government, and no amount of "rah rah, commie lover," government-addled psyop comments should make a free citizen budge on it. In short, because of the alarming amount of people here and on social media who think our police state should compel speech and action by the force of law, frick you, whoever you are.

You are a useful, statist tool for the elite, totalitarian lawmakers. You should be ashamed of yourself, and appalled that you ever had the gall to call yourself a patriot. You shine the shoes of a statesman - that is your lot in life and the wheels of history.

And so, to any who think government mandated speech is laudable, the floor is yours, tell me why:

1. I haven't heard of anyone proposing a law regarding this. Who is proposing that?

2. It would be clearly unconstitutional. I don't think you have to worry about it standing up.

3. You are wasting your time trying to debate principles with populists. They have no principles. Whatever they like is what they think should happen and whatever they don't like should be abolished. It doesn't matter how obvious it is that—given different details, such as a college being allowed to revoke scholarships from athletes who publicly say that a human with a dick and balls is always a man, or that Jesus rose from the dead—they would cry for the opposite result. They are non-rational, and they do not care. Populism has turned them into unthinking dolts when logic and reason and principle are involved.

And they will not debate it because they can't...you can't debate without foundation to do so. They will simply call you names because that's all they can do.
