I so, so, so hate this kind of grandstanding. Hey, Gabe are you okay with 275 people a day dying of fentanyl overdoses, or the 63 million babies aborted since Roe v Wade was decided? Is that the America you want to live in? He can kiss my a$$.

Go sit in a closet and suck your thumb, loser.

I could do that.

Or, rather than sitting in a closet, I could sit on a beach in Thailand

And rather than sucking a thumb, I could suck down a cold one or two or three 🍻🍻

And hum "adios and vaya con Dios" (but unlike the song, I've been here well over a year and I'm not coming back)

Thailand plays its anthem before movies.

Thailand plays its anthem before movies

Fact check: true

Not only that, they play the national anthem from every government-owned PA system in the country at 8 AM every day. In smaller cities/towns/villages, people actually will stop what they're doing while the anthem is being played in the morning.

Sort of refreshing...

[Does so]

“The national anthem before sporting events should have been discontinued long ago”.

Including High School events?

Including High School events?

Yes, especially at public schools. Up to private schools if they want to do it or not.

A local HS band played patriotic music at our Florida race car event.

I thought it quaint.
