It's the national anthem not the salute the troops Military Anthem
Yet another uneducated fool.

The playing of the anthem before sporting events was started toward the end of World War I as a way to show reverence and respect to the soldiers that had given their lives and were currently fighting and has been used in that sentiment ever since. That's why you are asked to remove your hat. It's not some pompous handjob to the flag. It's paying respects to the dead.

It is a great failure of our older generations in the respect that there are so many like you that live in this nation and are ignorant of these things.

Well when you put it like that I can certainly understand why you feel it's more important than civil rights or free speech.
