Unk no apology needed. I we are all just sick of all of this stuff going on in our America and most of us choose to defender Her!

I feel proud that our NHRA is being American.

This time same thing.
A young man who gave so much still stands with his arms because he has no legs for the anthem.

Political correctness is being the best American you can be. Doing that kind of stuff is embarrassing to all of us. And you hide in the not for profit tax structure. If you are not happy living here go somewhere else and if you want to complain please don't do it with your mouth full.

One last question, who was NHRA trying to appease and why?

If it wasn't played all the racers should have stopped in their tracks and not went down the track until it was played . Just my 2 cents

I watched a baseball game last week and just about every player took a knee?
I just can't believe that NHRA even with all the things they have done would follow......Imagine the starting line crew or safety safari guys doing this. Just can't see it. This must have been special circumstances.

Absolutely ridiculous. I am a racer, and also served 6 years in the United States Air Force. Not playing the national anthem is a disgrace, and it's an insult to all of us that sacrificed for this country. It goes against everything I believe in..

You guys need to read the whole thread before throwing rocks, Warren and Unk have offered a plausible/reasonable explanation/apologies. The matter is closed unless you want to beat a dead horse.

Let me break it down for you

1. 30 years of public schools pussifying and demoralizing our children
2. Sending your kids off to college to be taught to hate the USA
3. Letting our politicians out right sell out the country and screw the people in every way known to man
4. Computers and video games brainwashing the population
5. Turning away from God and his teachings (that should be #1)
6. Idiolizing professional over paid athletes......pathetic I have a hobby its called drag racing, I don't need to watch other people playing sports

That pretty much sums it up.
