National anthem. Patriotic or political? Some moron just asked why we have the national anthem at sports events because it’s political.

cause you to generalize.
The biggest problem in this country is people who use 1 instance to draw conclusions about 50% of the population.
But to answer your question... it will always be Patriotic.

My sentiments exactly. The national anthem and the pledge of allegiance are both patriotic!

The Pledge of Allegiance should have never been removed from public schools. If you move to USA and are using free public education, then you can pledge your Allegiance. The government has done little to create patriotism and seems like everything they are doing to tear down the morality of society. Now we are a couple of generations removed from prayer and pledge of Allegiance in schools, the parents of kids today have never been asked to praise their American freedom. Every generation going forward will further diverge from having been taught Patriotism as their parents were not given the opportunity.
When I visit my parents in Iowa, one thing I notice is American flags in yards of families and businesses is very prevalent. Also, 4th of July is very much celebrated but the average age in the farming communities is much older as the youth move away to cities looking for work and not carrying on the families farms.

I'm very Patriotic for my country, and I believe Patriotism has held our country together since the day we became known as the United States of America!!!

It is meant to be patriotic, but plenty of people today use it politically.

It is used politically by people who don’t like our country and view it as oppressive or as an opportunity to make a statement in protest.
It is also used politically by people who want to force America on others, sort of a way to say that we are better than you and you must think like us.

It represents our country good and bad parts. If someone doesn’t like the anthem, they are showing a dislike for our country and that is not patriotic.

I believe that being Patriotic is a good thing, and anybody that wants to see how Patriotism looks, look no further than the day the empire of Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, and see how fast and how many Americans were enlisting in all branches of our Armed forces to show the world how fast Americans will join together and risk all to protect the country we call home...

Can you believe that!!
Should be English, imho, and all should speak & write it even though 350 different languages are spoken & written in US.
Really get annoyed sometimes hearing families speak another language in public when speaking English should be their go to public language and while in private speak their former language so to keep it fresh and enjoy its heritage.

is that they share no common language. Why are you so irrational? How did you get like this? Innate or through indoctrination?

across the globe. But with the Left's two decade plus campaign to 'cripple America from within' (and the RINO infested GOP's policy of hibernation); with dangerous open border policy and programs encouraging the massive influx of illegals and perpetuating propaganda vilifying nationalism & attempting to portray the American flag in a similar light as the German Swastika. One of the goals of this treasonous domestic policy & propaganda proliferation to bring the US to heal, forcing the masses of US population to seek refuge in the advocation a globalist society, led by a planetary socialist council but ultimately under the dictatorship of China:NWO. (Russian President is Putin is not an advocate of globalism favoring nationalist and industrialist policies; this he has in common with much of the US electorate and President Trump)

The left not only believes that the National anthem is political, they believe it is racist. It's why they created a new one just for other races to participate in
They also believe the same thing about the American flag
If you need proof that we are a country in decline, look no further

I do not care what country an immigrant comes from, there should be laws against them flying the country flag of the country they came from. This is the United States of America, and only an American flag should be allowed to fly in this country, and anybody caught waving or flying another countries flag on a flag while in this country, they should be arrested and taken back to the country of the flag they were waving or put up a flagpole...

In the past, when our gov was for and by the people, it was patriotic. Unfortunately, our government was sold to the highest bidder to carry out their agenda rather than what is best for our people or country

I don’t think of anything other than the sacrifices made to give my family the luxury of freedom we have in this country when it’s played. If you’re thinking of anything political during it you’re a mindless idiot. “This country sucks” cool thing about freedom is you’re free to leave, we see people crossing the border everyday to get in yet I don’t see lines of people leaving 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️

Patriotic but why don't we do it before the showing of a movie at the movie theater or at the office at the beginning of a work day or when a team of construction workers convene to lay down asphalt or heck at church? Why is it only during sporting events for the most part?
