I wouldn't go that far, but this certainly meets at least two of the checkmarks of fascism, nation over individual and suppression of the opposition. People should be able to do what they want during the anthem, not be pressured to fall in line or face discipline. What's next? Fans get thrown out of the stadium if they don't stand and take off their hats?

I wonder how all of this will be seen 100 years from now. I thought freedom of speech was in the first amendment, but apparently it doesn't matter anymore. We are headed down a dark path, every day I am more and more reminded of 1984 by George Orwell.

And people say Wikipedia isn't reliable.
