Matsi 35 Posted July 4, 2013 Lady Gaga spoke some words and then sang the national anthem replacing the last line with something a little different: "Oh say does that star spangled flag of pride yet wave o'er the land of the free and a home for the gay." Some people are throwing a fit over this, what are your thoughts? I do not see anything wrong with how she sung it.. I think the us flag is also a "flag of pride" and this is a land where a lot of gay people call home... america needs to stop living in the past and open it's eyes to the present/future where EVERYONE is treated equally! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdd6JzJgJGY 5 salartarium, abkarch, JakeEnglish and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forest 309 Posted July 4, 2013 The idea of a "utopia" where everyone is equal had already been considered by a man named Karl Marx. Needless to say, it didn't work out too well. You wouldn't find anything wrong with it as you are for it, but there are others who are [quite obviously] against it, as I'm sure you would know. Not trying to start anything, but I'm just letting you know that things just aren't simply black and white. Haters gun' hate, n'ah mean? 2 salartarium and Brian reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JakeEnglish 2 Posted July 5, 2013 I'm all for gay rights/pride (obviously) but there are better ways to get the point across than bastardizing the National Anthem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhododendron 994 Posted July 5, 2013 She didn't sing the national anthem, and she soiled it. I would be mad about that, if I cared. 1 salartarium reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
