I read through it, including the parts removed from the national anthem, and could find nothing offensive in it. But then again, I'm rarely ever offended by historical facts, especially when viewed in light of current realities.
There is something seriously askew in a world where a nation's national anthem is banned from being performed in that nation's capitol.
Who's really running this place?

All is well because nobody is buying Bud Light.
Damn shame that folk can boycott a beer company that the majority of the people don't drink anyway, and can be substituted without a blip or a thought, but when it comes to standing up for what really matters.......
Not even crickets.
I'm not sure what went on with that fiasco at the capital rotunda. The choir's leader states he obtained documents allowing the children to sing five songs, but the police there say the rules state that no singing is allowed. Maybe just a big misunderstanding but everyone including myself are totally confused as to what the rules really are and in government, in my experience, nobody knows what anyone else is doing.
