Video: Liberal Protesters Boo the National Anthem at Pro-Union Rally
Pundit Press ^ | 4/18/11 | Aurelius

Go figure, liberals booing the national anthem...

So, let me set the scene for you: hundreds of liberals are gathered together at a rally in Wisconsin. Dozens of signs can be seen, including ones that read "Walker: Your Pink Slip is Coming" and "Palin's true color'$ (sic):"

Over the murmur of the crowd, the Star Spangled Banner can be heard, song by a woman, but only for a moment. Quickly, a chorus of boos from the progressives in attendance drown out our national anthem. This continues for almost the entirety of the rendition; finally, near the end, the boos dissipate...

However, the overall disrespect is apparent. As the old argument goes: if liberals are so displeased with this nation, why don't they just leave? If they find it necessary to boo the national anthem at a rally, why don't they try protesting in Libya or Syria? The answer is obvious: because they would not and could not. For some reason, they are booing the very country that gives them the right to boo.

The left does not seek to sublimate the reasonable individual enforcement mechanisms. They have quite effectively done such.

Punch a communist burning a flag, or an atheist peeing on a Crucifix, then get back to us when you get out of jail and need a hundred thousand dollars for legal fees.

We are in an era of total state control for a period as yet to be determined by the number of people who resist the states ability to enforce diktat.

It is all falling apart. Financial advantage is beginning to favor those who resist over those who desire control.

Every so often the reality that there is no possible human mechanism of control must be reproved. To most people involved in these realignments it seems as if it is a new thing.

They’re just mad because they thought they were going to sing the the North Korean national anthem and they don’t know the words to ours.

Explain to me, I’m slow. Did they really sing that?

I am a traditional Liberal.

Favorable to progress or reform, as in political affairs. Avocation of political reform based on representational form of government, unwilling to submit to monarchy or or aristocracy oligarchy. Favorable to maximum individual liberty that should be enforced by government. Favoring and permitting of personal action, or willing to simply do such without any granted consent. Open minded and not bound by any imposed doctrine. Favor the ability of the individual to remain self reliant and obtain ability to maintain mechanism to resist government or private coercion.

Liberals are not communists, fascists or socialists. We in fact dislike the reality that they manifest. No liberal in his or her right mind would ever accept the concept of gun control. Or the IRS or other state or corporate mechanism to achieve a position of control over ones person, place or property.

Hope this helps.

I was being sarcastic, but it’s perfectly plausible that they would. Being internationalist socialists and all...
