CyricZ 05/23/18 2:45:04 PM #102:	KamenRiderBlade posted... It's tradition and it's fine the way it is. This is used to justify many practices. As I alluded to earlier, the motivation for even having the anthem in place was to drum up recruitment in the military in wartime. The "tradition" was very political in nature as it was meant to help the war effort. KamenRiderBlade posted... Every citizen of their respective country should be Nationalistic about their country. I'm sure North Korea heartily agrees. I can be quite sure of that because I'm aware of there being consequences otherwise. Or to use a less drastic approach: it's my opinion that countries should act in a way that motivates their citizens to respect them, not have those in power demand that respect through ceremony. --- CyricZ <cite>CyricZ posted [p:901856668] in BREAKING N...

They should just protest outside of work like normal people do. Don't try to stir things up on company time. The thing is though, if I went to work this Saturday and my boss told me I had to stand for the National Anthem before every work day, I'd laugh and not do it and just do my work. There's really no reason to enforce it.This isn't a thing about kneeling. The reason it bothers me so much is that there is a precedent that really reflects this, and that is WVBoE VS Barnette. Sure, it's not the same, but you cannot simply force someone to stand up or against values they don't believe in or stand for. This is why I am on the side of the baker with the gay cake.
