Being at home during the Anthem is not the same because the the Anthem is played in a public setting for the sole reason of showing respect for our flag and what it stands for

It has nothing to do with protesting nor should it

Just because you have the right to do something doesn't make it right such as kneeling during our Anthem

Its that simple
