First...it is the national anthem Unitil legislation or EO changes it, it will be the national anthem.
Second...it is the national anthem. If you dont like it fine with me. But dont tell me I am not allowed to enjoy hearing it. You dont like it? Turn the sound down or dont go to places that play it.
Third....I understand people feel it is inappropriate becuase of our history of slavery and discrimination of women.
Fourth...we no longer endorse or practice slavery and discrimination of women is rapidly declining
Now....reality...
Do Egyptians hate their national anthem because of what their ancestors did to the Jews back in the day of the Pharaoh?
Do Germans hate their national anthem due to what they did to millions of men, women and children?
Does Japan hate their national anthem because of their unprovoked surprise attack on Pearl Harbor?
South Africa dna what they did to Mandella?
Ireland and the IRA?
Mexico and the Alamo?
Enough already. We are learning to be better.
Get over it.
