Re: Refusing to remove hoodie during national anthem . (news link)
[ QUOTE ]
It should be within my right as a US citizen to sit down and not remove my head covering during the singing of the national anthem.
This is what makes us a better country than Iran or China.
This is "freedom".

This argument is completely flawed. What if I find it disrespectful that you refuse to remove your head covering? Wouldn't that be taking away my freedom?
Removing your hat or whatever is about showing respect. So I consider this disrespectful. Please note I'm not some crazy "god bless america" nutso with a tat like shockey on his arm. I'm not really sensitive to this topic either, just putting in my $.02
