          The flag is NOT 'still there' if standing is reduced to an authoritarian, anti-democratic, robotic requirement. 2/2

          When law enforcement start enforcing a set of ideals and not LAWS, fascism has taken root.

          Why did the standing girl put her left pom-pom out in front of the back girls? (10 sec) Was it her own way or was she trying to cover them?

          Its a constititional right to kneel- the these law enforcers wont acknowledge- so WH rhetoric makes it ok to illegally harass them at home?
