Comrade Kamala Harris Would Not Say if Americans Should Stand for the National Anthem
When asked, Kamala Harris could not bring herself to advocate for Americans to stand in honor of the national anthem.
Naturally, like she always does when she doesn’t really want to answer a question, when asked she delivered a rambling word salad.
“We are all, and should be, treated as equals. We articulated those principles in our Constitution. And part of what we decided is what makes a fair and just and noble society in a democracy, a true democracy, is freedom of religion, freedom, right of association, freedom to organize, First Amendment,” she said in response.
“So, that is part of who we are as a country, and I will defend it to the core, which is that we give people certain choices in this country.”
That is not an answer.
GOP Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana blasted Harris for this, writing, “When a reporter asked VP Kamala Harris if people should stand for our national anthem, she dodged the question. I’ll answer it for her. The Arlington National Cemetery contains more than 400,000 reasons you should ALWAYS stand up for the Star-Spangled Banner.”

Seems very clear to me. Individuals have the freedom to make up their own mind and exercise moral conscience in a liberal democracy. Governments and media are not authorised to interfere in those decisions.
@SunshineGirl Kackler's message of disrespecting the United States National Anthem? She is the dem's undemocratic pick for their candidate for the President of the United States, she is showing the rest of the world what she thinks of our Country, she does not have that right to do so, her job is to defend and protect the meaning of the law of the land, the United States Constitution, which she steps all over on when she REFUSES to stand and honor our National Anthem. Obama did the same dishonor when he refused to pay attention during his own oath of office in January 2009.
