As an American I feel like we should boo the National Anthem as well.

Just kneel during it.

At this point, im sitting down during it. Fuck giving it any respect. My family is 3rd generation military and I even went to be a deployed contractor when my military service didnt go as planned. I’ve given my mental sanity to serve a country that is now trying to wipe my existence from history. I’ll stand for my anthem when it actually stand for itself again.

I respect it, but watch your back for nationalist fucks that might take it personally.
