We snuck it by the libtards again...
A rendition of America the Beautiful was performed during Super Bowl 50 and the Mississippi state flag, which features the Confederate flag, was in plain view in front of millions of viewers.
Many people on Twitter reacted angrily to this display, given the recent racially charged events that have led many States to remove confederate symbols from government buildings. |

Yeah well, you can't always get what you want (Mick Jagger said that). It's great isn't it? "I'm angry so I'll go post about it on Twitter!" Jesus Christ.
Although I still say that sporting events don't need to be so politicized. Sing the National Anthem at the start and be done with it. |

Here's the deal, those Twitter posters were all in a tizzy about the Confederate Flag but didn't say shit about the dancers representing the Black Panthers and Beyonce crying about the Po-lice while endorsing those dumbass Black Lives Matter 'tards.
Fukk 'em, you can't cry about one and not the other. |
