Yes, I stand for the National Anthem and also I served my country in the United States Army. But I don't have the problem many here do about someone who does not stand. Stan |

Re: Drag racers stand for the National Anthem
As someone who fought and bled for this country the National Anthem means something to me. I am disgusted by those who were born in this country and revile the flag and it's anthem.

Re: Drag racers stand for the National Anthem
I served this country for 4 years (1967-1971) in the Navy on a nuclear submarine and 2 submarine rescue ships. I stand for the National Anthem, but I strongly support anyone who chooses not to. As has been stated many times going back 4 years to Colin Kapernick; this is not about disrespecting the flag, the United States, or veterans; it is about calling attention to the problems that still exist in this country today. I served this country to preserve our freedoms as Americans and one of those freedoms has always been, and hopefully always will be, freedom of expression.

Re: Drag racers stand for the National Anthem
I served in Vietnam and I'm proud that our Countrymen have the privilege to peacefully protest. IMO if any Right in this Country should be made mandatory it should be the Right to Vote.
We're a Republic that follows the principles of Democracy and that is a very fragile form of Government and voter apathy is a sure way to lose it. |

Re: Drag racers stand for the National Anthem
And look what abuses of freedom of expression has led to ,anarchy in the streets. I believe disrespect of the flag and the anthem were the beginnings of our current situation. And things are so much better
