KING: WHY I'LL NEVER STAND AGAIN FOR THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER
New York Daily News ^ | August 29, 2016 | Shaun King

Posted on 08/29/2016 8:32:08 PM PDT by GuavaCheesePuff

I like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. In a dream world the bread is super soft, like the Wonder Bread of my childhood, and the sandwich will have crunchy peanut butter, strawberry jam, and a cup of cold milk to go with it.

Maybe PB&J isn't your favorite sandwich, but I want you to imagine your favorite comfort food for a moment. Maybe it's a hamburger, a piece of pie, or a fruit smoothie. Whatever it is, just imagine yourself enjoying the very best version of your very favorite food.

It's perfectly delicious. Then, imagine yourself glancing up on the wall and seeing that the restaurant had a score of C minuses on their health inspection. Then you go to the restroom and it's filthy. A man emerges from the stall having followed by the foulest odor you've ever smelled in your life, and you notice he's still wearing his apron from the kitchen. Then, the unthinkable happens — the man who made your comfort food walks right past the sink and doesn't even wash his hands.

this guy is an idiot.

Is he still black ?

Key's full poem actually has a third stanza which few of us have ever heard. In it, he openly celebrates the murder of slaves. Yes, really.

It actually has 4 verses.

Wow, another ‘thing’ built for us by obama.
He has set us all at each others throats.

Why is this pasty white dolt still pretending to be a brother?

He’s a social justice activist and a progressive.

O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream,
’Tis the star-spangled banner—O long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore,
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
A home and a Country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash’d out their foul footstep’s pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto – “In God is our trust,”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Like my Dad would say, ‘You want something to cry about, I’ll give you something to really cry about.’ Move to any other country, snowflake.

To me, right now, "The Star-Spangled Banner" is that peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I used to love it, but now I regret ever going anywhere near it.

Well, then, take your fake-ass wannabe black ass and go...somewhere.

What is this juvenile Cantbe Kinte spewing about, anyway?

I do not understand how this guy is employed as a writer. He writes like a high school student trying to be relevant and cool.

He realizes that the "slave and hireling" referred to in the song were white boys doesn't he?

No?

My, he really is an idiot.

“imagine your favorite comfort food”

A real man has no idea what that is. Paging Clint Eastwood.

so he’s actually defending a band of mercenary turncoats who fought for the British and killed who knows how many Americans?! King and other pathetic Commie bastards HATE America with a totally unhinged fury.
