Threatening people who don't stand for an anthem isn't freedom, that's called tyranny.

Americans are so uneducated. Prior to 1971 an ounce of gold had been near $20 for over 100 years. The government has devalued our currency enough through extensive quantitative easing, that an ounce of gold today is $1300. Since 1995, the US dollar has lost 30% of its purchasing power, and every time the debt limit is raised to keep the government open, your paycheck buys a little less. No wonder cryptocurrency is blowing up. Stagnant wages, exorbitant taxes, 20 trillion in debt ($300,000/ every man woman and child), a 16 year war in a country (Afghanistan) that supplies the USA with 90% of its heroin....and yet Americans are still loyal to an anthem? To a flag? That stands for what exactly? Taxation? Oppression? Blind loyalty to the republic? Id bet George Washington and Paul Revere wouldn't be standing for the anthem either.
