I have a curious question I cant seem to get a straight answer,

The roughly 3 Million people in the country that dont stand for the anthem, or hang a flag, say the pledge, or show any respect under their
religious freedom rights, are they just as unpatriotic, deemed un-American, and equally subject to wrath?

I dont really know.......

All I can say ICE, is this was a Non issue, over the 18 Athletes that did not attend the White house over 3 Administrations.

While I respect that it might bother some people, I disagree with a Judgement from some, on either side, in an attempt to define
personal standards for all.

You mentioned immigrants, and only in the sense of faith. There are many who have "hate", there are many who disagree that they are of Faith.

What drives these divisions are controlled media and Propaganda....It can be hard to see this, I know, but as I track this internally as best I can in the military, externally in public servants, and globally with family working with governments, I cant help but say that some Strong feelings about what is right or wrong are highly marginalized feelings.

It doesnt negate them, just that through history we find many social outcries, only in hindsight to ask, "how did this happen?"
Look at McCarthy...People believed with passion, because of Media.....

But ICE, this is how numbers get messy....
The lowest unemployment rate was 1.2% in 1944.

The Lowest percentage for say Blacks is today, but as the total drops, so does the percentage.
If one looks at the decrease by numbers, its a different stat, If its numbers based on changes in population growth,
again numbers can be presented differently.

Times 100!

Thanks! I didnt know it had a name! Lots to read.

One point I wish to share.

A news story....about something new, and involving US and an Overseas country.

When this happens as it does often, My brother can find himself on 3 different continents, in as many days.
He will see the media in the airports and hotels.
Then he will meet with Governments, Banks, Corps, Military.

That ONE new story has so many different "views" and opinions, it boggles his mind!
After he is done with "official" business, and opinions, they often head out for dinners and drinks.
The same people now have completely different personal opinions.
It makes him Nuts!

Finding "truth" he feels is almost impossible, as Media is marginalized.

With all disrespect intended. There is one person, carrying a great deal of Global Opinion shaping.

The Womans Team Controversy, as an Example, had way different stories in AU, Singapore, Germany, and New Zealand,
on his last Trip.

Dialogue, Is always best. Honesty and Good people are Paramount.
I know ICE and I might disagree, but I always listen and value his opinion.
We learn nothing, by being close minded.
