as national anthem.

quote:

The California NAACP is forwarding a resolution to state lawmakers that seeks to remove “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the national anthem. The organization discussed the resolution at its California – Hawaii State Conference in October.

Every decade or so, some activist groups that can garner a little bit of attention get this bee in their bonnet. Hell, in my late teens and early 20s I wanted "America the Beautiful."

Then I grew up, and learned what all the "Star-Spangled Banner" actually means. I mean, I knew the story about F.S. Key on the ship. But thinking about it more, his love for his new-found country and it's flag which endured after a night of bombardment? Money.

This, too, shall pass. Are they NOT watching the anger stirred up by the idiot-kneelers?

At this point, someone could just start making these headlines up and I wouldn't even bat an eye.

"Oregon woman says breastfeeding male children is supporting misogyny."


Sure, why the frick not

To which Key was referring to the plight of the conscripted Americans captured and forced to fight for the British navy.

Nah dude, "March Madness" by Future is the official black national anthem (Previously "Wipe Me Down" by Boosie Badazz was the anthem)
