[quote:Anonymous Coward 46565274:MV80MjY1NzYzXzc3NzE2NTU5XzlDMTQ1RUE5] [quote:Éireann:MV80MjY1NzYzXzc3NzEwOTg5XzVDQjg2NUM=] Not that I'm for police brutality and whatnot, but you STAND when the National Anthem is being played! [/quote] Just a faker. Not standing is kind of an insult to all the good it represents and all those that fought for it...so people like them can live a life of privilage (compared to a lot of the world). Has America got problems? Sure, but...how does disrespecting something meant to represent all the good of your country help things? IT DOESN'T. And that person KNOWS it won't change the bad, it does nothing, helps no one. Even generates negativity. And that's why they're fakers; instead taking actual actions (effort!) to better things they take a 'faux stance' they know will solve nothing (while pretending they're doing something). Such fake ass bitches. [/quote]

A teacher in Chicago has come under fire after he told a Hispanic student, who is a US citizen, to go back to her country after she didn't get up during the national anthem.
The teacher's remarks were made to a student at the Nicholas Senn High School last month, who said she remained seated during the anthem as part of a protest against police brutality, US immigration policies and anti-immigrant political rhetoric.
Yesica Salazar, 17, said the teacher responded by asking her if her legs were broken, and recalls she was told 'go back to my own country if I didn't want to stand.'
