Restaurant slammed for playing National Anthem by Tik Tok users

Is being Patriotic in the US dead. Tik tok users seem to think so. Not only Tik tok fans here in the US but, from around the world. Some say it's so strange in their country they never hear their National Anthem.

This is very appalling!
Americans especially the American's that commented negatively about the National Anthem are showing no respect for those that fought and died for their Freedom and their Freedom of speech!

A viral video of patriotic patrons standing up for the National Anthem inside a Southern California bar has shocked some media users who left thousands of horrified comments on TikTok post.

The 14-second video posted by a user identified as 'Paulina' shows roughly a half dozen individuals standing for the Star-Spangled Banner as it played on a TV screen.

'By far the most dangerous situation I've ever been in,' Paulina wrote alongside the hashtags 'godblessamerica,' 'getout,' 'illegal,' and 'whitepeoplethings.'

The video was taken at the Rainbow Oaks Restaurant in Fallbrook - a city located around 50 miles northeast of San Diego.

According to KUSI, the restaurant plays the National Anthem every day at noon.

One video posted by the San Diego news station in April shows the restaurant packed with customers, all singing the patriotic tune with their hands over their hearts.

The TikTok user who posted the now viral-video of the salute was clearly not aware of the daily tradition and was stunned by the display.

Shared less than a week ago, the video has garnered more than 3.1 million views.

Not all who watched were moved by the large group standing for the National Anthem, however, as the majority of comments were outraged and disgusted.

'Serious question. Is this real? Like people actually do this in real everyday life?' one user asked.

'This happened when i was at mission bbq once and it was so awkward that i haven’t been back since,' another responded.

'As someone from the uk this feels so dystopian,' one person said.

'This feels like a horror movie,' another added.

'As a Canadian this is kind of insane,' one user wrote.

'I would be scared for my life,' one person responded.

Others who chimed in called the video, 'wild' and 'terrifying.'

Yes, because nothing says 'Freedom of Speech' like not being able to criticise the National Anthem and appropriate venues for it

@specman [quote]the freedom not to honor those who gave you freedom is appalling and a bunch of bs. Sure I know they have a right to disrespect that. But for someone to do it just means their part of the anti American problem.

You don't have to be redundant. It's clear you don't understand what the 1st amendment means.

I read about this on another source - it's disturbing to say the least.

The stream of crazy stories from around the country and the world with rampant crime, out of control government officials, random people doing crazy things for no apparent reason, blatant disregard for the Constitution - all has me seriously thinking that there an unseen evil let loose on the world. Good people really need to step up to the plate before we are lost.

Of course. That works great for preventing school shootings.

@chrisCA Hi Chris - Please STFU
This has nothing to do school shootings.

There are a lot of anti Americans on here!
That’s a tradition for that restaurant. It was not done for politics.
At noon everyday they are open they play the National Anthem to honor our soldiers and our fallen heroes. People that are the life line for this country.
Those that was patriotic enough to fight for the very right that you use not to be thankful to them for. That is a bunch of bs. People like that have no honor! And we would have no America if those people were in charge. You can say what you will but if you live in America and bad mouth it you know you can and please do leave!

For those of you not living in the USA and bad mouth it. Please don’t ever visit the USA.

@specman If your country commits crimes and only engages in war because of selfish reasons and for profit you should question it and not commit crimes in the name of blind nationalism. If you put a country over peace and human lives you are garbage and from what I know the US military is not filled with people who are only volunteering.

Also if you fight and the people of your country don't get protected or are safer because of it you aint fighting for the people only for a power hungry government and system.
specman · 51-55, M
@Gloomy what do you mean not volunteering? We are not under a draft. We do not force individuals to serve.
You fight for your country or you will for sure lose it. I know you cannot understand true loyalty to your country. War is never pretty but you fight to help preserve your country. We fight wars to preserve our country. Our country doesn’t just aimlessly fight. You mentioned the gulf wars they were fought for many reasons , but they were to ultimately preserve us and our way of life.

I saw this video, and have watched it several times since. One, step down off that high perch about the National Anthem. It's a song. And it's a song we only hear when played before kick-off or the first pitch. Yeah, our sacred national Anthem is so dear and to be honored only when we're drinking and cheering and eating nachos.

Secondly, a restaurant randomly playing the national anthem and requiring its patrons to stand and honor it is poor etiquette. You want to impose your brand of nationalism over my meal is overstepping your service to the clients.

I love the National Anthem; it brings tears to my eyes. But it's a song. The flag is a piece of cloth. And labels are merely weaponize words meat to harm ad not to educate, heal or build. If people spent 10 minutes reading about the founding of this nation, if they reflected upon the ideals they love hearing so much at their kids' pageants, if they chose kindness and enlightenment over identity politics and "politics and a game" mentality, then maybe the US would remember its compass, its ideals and its True North. Patriotism isn't about songs or sneakers or M&Ms or vaccines or clever sayings or one-upmanship. It's about letting other citizens feel any way they want to about when and where the National Anthem is played.

@Graylight look it being the law that passed doesn’t just mean they can only deny gays or transgender individuals but they can deny anyone!
Graylight · 51-55, F
@specman No, that’s not how it reads, but that would be a serious
Ethics violation as well.
specman · 51-55, M
@Graylight how what reads?

There is only one true anthem and my heart already belongs to it

I wouldn't "freak out" if all the restaurant patrons stood and sang the national anthem every day at noon. But since I have less than an hour for lunch, I'd probably pick a place that doesn't steal part of my lunch break for a political performance.

I'm perfectly happy to stand for the national anthem at football games, baseball games, basketball games . .. . do they play for hockey and soccer too? those really aren't American sports, so i can't predict.

Tbh, the US national anthem is shit and should be replaced.
I would much prefer "America, The Beautiful"

Surely, it re-inforces the issues surrounding China being in control of TikTok
