Most of these morons could not tell you what the stripes and stars of the American flag represent.
Nor could they tell you who their Congressman is.
Nor could they tell you the three branches of Government...
I could go on...and on....
Now just a dang minute! These are college graduates, I'll have you know.
Oh. Yeah. Point taken...
I was already angry, but when I read the story of standing for God Save The Queen and kneeling for our own anthem in a foreign country, that took it to a whole new level. The notion that the perpetrators didn’t realize the implications is quite simply a lie. They knew exactly what they were doing.

Even someone who doesn't know the answers to those questions may know how to show respect--or disrespect. You readers may or may not know the symbolism of the British flag or how their Parliament works, but you will not, I hope, bend over and moon their flag during their national anthem.
