People still outraged at Bill Maher saying there should only be one national anthem

He had the audacity to say on Jimmy Kimmel last week he didn't think it's a good idea to sing two anthems during NFL games. The outrage built around him... and he doubled down.

I still don't think we should play either except for championships or special events.

Imagine putting the two on equal footing.

that isn't for me to decide.
They used to play God Bless America and the National Anthem before games.
Can't really compare those two together either but I didn't hear anyone complain then.

Has a very "separate but equal" feel.

We are only 1 nation, therefore, only need 1 national anthem

This is the idea being (successfully) challenged.

You ever try to be so reasonable and smart that you just straight up come out gay and dumb…..
You did it

I have no idea what they play before NFL games because I don't watch them.

my thing is, why is it OK with people to play God Bless America before games but not Lift Every Voice and Sing?

Outrageous statement is not Outrageous

Doubling down on stupid is a terrible idea

It must hurt to be so stupid.

Black National Anthem you mean? Propagandist

The difference is that both the Anthem and God Bless America are songs for a UNITED States. The "black anthem" is for a subset of people. It is segregationist.

Maybe on paper. In point of fact, however, the country is becoming more and more balkanized.

Why do we play any anthem at NFL games?
It’s a private business. I don’t play the anthem at my business events.
Olympics? I can buy that. Playing at pro sports events is dumb and nothing more than forced patriotism.
