Pussification of america: A sickening example.
A small college in northern Indiana that decided to stop playing the national anthem at sporting events will play "America the Beautiful" instead.
Goshen College's president says "America the Beautiful" is more fitting with the Mennonite Church-affiliated school's pacifist traditions while also honoring the country.
Leaders of the 1,000-student college decided in June to quit playing an instrumental version "The Star-Spangled Banner" after starting to do so for the first time last year.
Some students and graduates were against the song being played because its lyrics contain references to using war to defend the country.

Welcome to a liberal haven.
'Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a
delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly
promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely
possible to pick up a turd by the clean end!'
“A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity.” Sigmund Freud

Pussification Of America: A Sickening Example
I am firmly convinced that if some people had their way, the new name for this country would be the Islamic Republic Of Amerika because Islam is a religion of peace!.

Isn't athletics a modern form of tribal warfare?

They will ban Christmas cards next.
We have this problem with some of the left wing and the regional nationalist in the UK as our anthem mentions war and the Queen."all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing" Edmund Burke.
