California Governor Jerry Brown has authorised schools in the state to ban the ‘racist’ National Anthem so as not to offend minorities.


So..NoCal will sing it while SoCal won’t.

Sounds like an open act of rebellion. Time to give them the secessionist treatment in the proud tradition of Lincoln.

That's bullshite. The student body at one San Ramon high school banned singing the national anthem at pep rallies.

Wild-eyed crazy people.

That's just silly. I'd like a legitimate link though. All I see is that a local school district has authorized it. I don't see anything referring to anything more than a district man on any legitimate news site.

If someone doesn't want to stand for it, or participate, don't make them do it... but it shouldn't be banned. If my son doesn't want to stand for it, I'll be ok with it. If he does, I'll be ok with it. To completely eliminate is is asinine though.

An agry parent did reply, per the article...

I’m hoping to draw further attention to a significant problem at California High School in San Ramon, California. Todd Starnes at Fox News has already addressed this in part but I would like to see more light shed on this in an effort to bring additional pressure on the anti-American liberals who run the school and district.

I am the father of a student at the school, and when my eldest son came home and told me about this I was outraged. Effectively a handful of disgruntled snowflakes did not like a reference to “the hireling and slave” in the third verse of the Star-Spangled Banner. As a result, the national anthem will no longer be played at student gatherings. The school administration put out a piece this afternoon claiming that they were attempting to be inclusive and mindful of issues which may make some students uncomfortable. Of course, they don’t take the feelings of the mainstream into account with their radicalized agenda on issues involving gender or other hot topics. It seems that only the left is given the benefit of the doubt on these things. Frankly, I’m tired of being on the defensive.

All I see is an article from a dubious source concerning some students at one school.

Will someone please remind me where in the national anthem that is played in schools or athletic events is that 'racist' reference made. If it is in the third verse, who has ever heard the third verse played?
