A crowd attending the Central Section Division I softball championship in Fresno on Friday evening burst into The Star-Spangled Banner after being told by the announcer that there would be no national anthem before the game. The Fresno Bee reported: Before Clovis High played Buchanan Friday night for the Central Section softball championship, the announcer representing the section stated there wouldn’t be a national anthem prior to the game. Those in attendance at Fresno State’s Margie Wright Diamond weren’t having any of that. Following a loud chorus of boos, the patriotic crowd stood up and began singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” a cappella. Many removed their hats and placed their hands over their hearts. Others simply stood tall with pride. Players stopped their pregame warmups to turn around and face the American flag that waved beyond the center-field wall. When the song was over, the crowd burst into a round of applause. According to the Bee, the game’s organizers acknowledged that they had made a mistake. Video of the anthem was posted to Facebook by fan Tiffany Marquez, according to CBS News.

Names of parents taken and their kids suspended for the first week of school for acting out and in defiance of authorities who managed the game.
American schools are full of America haters. I am surprised that they even dare to make this change without explanation to students and parents and public
It is in the part of California that is more like middle America than the libtard Left coast.
Liberalism can be the only reason for such a decision to NOT perform the National Anthem prior to such an event.
Liberalism is synonymous with idiocy. Feel free to add your own perspectives of synonyms for liberalism.
For real?
Yep. They will be sent to jack booted run re-education camp.
Anyone who remained seated should have been tied to the backstop and pelted with fastballs. Their lifeless bodies should then have been used to drag the infield after the fourth.
I wonder if someone was in the stands so they could be reported to Google or FB, they could serve a few days in jail, or have any mention of this stricken “frum Ze RECORD”.
Ya got it totally wrong. Coastal California is not really part of California.
And so it goes. Liberal scum in positions of leadership have dictated to us and corrupted us and we've done little to retaliate. May this old man live long enough to see conservative morals, values and ethics sweep across America like a tsunami, completely washing away all that is ugly and corrupt and Godless.
Princess Silverspoon Clintoon would say these are the people who “degrade” America. I guess it offends her “morals and values” for these people to do this.
Got answer: they didn’t have the guts to. They are cowards hidden behind the sheepskin clothing of teachers trying to force an anti-American agenda.
And you’ll notice within the article the person making the half-a$$ed lack of effort to apologize, in the language of liberal liars who do not understand what I’m sorry means, wasn’t named when they admitted “making a mistake.” I don’t call it a mistake, I call it a royal screw up whose job should be on the line for taking it upon themselves to do something that stupid without their bosses knowing about it. And if the bosses did, it’s time for replacements, isn’t it?

Where’s the conga-line of people chanting CA is a leftist mecca, CA is full of leftist, CA is a lost cause and on and on?
Awesome.
“...America haters.....”
They are not America haters.
They are revolutionaries who have been sprinkled with the cachet of the brilliant, intellectual, Progressive genius who can hate America without seeming to hate it but seeming to be above the sentiments of those so-called ignorant, unenlightened, stupid rednecks.

“...Liberalism is synonymous with idiocy. Feel free to add your own perspectives of synonyms for liberalism....”
Sure. It’s a chronic, no-cure, mental disease that rots out the brain to the point where they can’t tell the difference between reality and fantasy. It brings on an insanity that know no bounds. It destroys everything it touches: education, religion, economics, even high school football....Yes, EVERYTHING. It’s like the BORG of this century. It should be totally stamped out before it destroys this entire nation. These morons need to be locked up in padded cells.
I wonder if the leftist stooge who announced no National Anthem left the stadium in disgrace?
...AT LEAST HALF THE CROWD WHO HONORED
AMERICA SHOULD SHOW UP AT THE NEXT SCHOOL BOARD MEETING TO DEMAND WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DECISION AND REQUEST THEIR RESIGNATION!
No, they are American haters.
The Flag stands for all the people in all the states (fifty stars) It stands for the Constitution, it stands for freedom. It does not stand for any current federal policies in practice, nor either political party.
