Yes we do and that's why we won't let our Country fall!!! Democrats have woken the "sleeping giant" in us Conservatives and we will fight to death for our freedom!
And fools cast it down and replace it with a flag to celebrate that they're banging someone... They disgrace our flag, and a disgrace the rainbow. Once a beautiful symbol of peace and unity turned into a symbol of rebellious debauchery. Much like how Hitler corrupted the swastika. Evil cannot create. It can only corrupt.
We owe a debt to people who never existed? That's strange. By the way, George Washington never said "The thing that sets the American Christian apart from all other people in the world is he will die on his feet before he will live on his knees." Like nearly everything else in this video, it's a fabrication. By the way, only 4 people died and 25 were wounded after the British bombardment of Fort McHenry. So there were no "patriot bodies" holding up the flag. The Fort itself took very little damage from the shelling and bombardment. This myth seems to originate with a minister David C. Gibbs Jr. from back in 2008. You people make me embarrassed to be a Conservative.
You as the Americans should not have attacked Canadian Parliament at York Town, and we burned your white house down ,you did get beat, but as liars you did keep fighting in the south, when the war was over, comics waste of life. Britain did keep the states on the North of America and Canada was free from American terrorists. Read the history properly.
Remember 9/11 they actually hit the Pentagon with a single prop vehicle. Everything happening now is setting up two things, a revisted experience of the 2010 u.n. Agenda, now known as the 2030 u.n agenda and they trying to test our Father and his patience ❤️
I am American, born and raised. My grandpa was a veteran,WW1, my dad WW2, my brother Vietnam . I am proud to be of Mexican heritage.Proud of this United States of America. My husband was Mexican but so proud when he became an American citizen. God Bless our Country.
I’ve always had a huge respect for my country and our flag but this gave me a whole new appreciation for it! What an amazing tale of bravery! Brought me to tears! GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸!
Amen. The most beautiful song ever and I hate those who talk during it is sung or played and show no respect. And those who think adding their on additional notes should learn to sing It as written.
This is not true. Key wrote the poem from his ship. He only had one prisoner released, The ships would not get to close to Fort McHenry because their guns would sink them. Only 4 people died at the fort. Almost all of the 1800 bombs and 700 rockets missed the fort. They fought all night against land invaders not because of the ships bombing.
We must pass on these beautiful stories. We took a lot of granted, that’s something we have to live with. Our mistakes. Let’s not allow the next generation to fall as we did.
The other 2 verses of the National Anthem are as poewrful and need to be sung as well. They are the words setting us apart by God in this world. Time to start listening and stop bickering amonst ourselves. There is a very powerful evil that is being put upon the American people through the use of our children. Parents - teach your children well
@@irritatingtruth9121 _"We must pass on these beautiful stories."_ it would be better to tell the truth rather than the fictional story told in this video.
We owe all our fallen veterans that left this earth defending this country our utmost respect. We can never forget their sacrifice, and not let what they fought for be destroyed by corruption or greed. Without freedom, we are nothing.
Not just the fallen... Any vet we should respect as they put there life on the line for this country. They may have got medical problems from when they served, but still got back home...
I saw a game in Canada and the sound system malfunctioned during the singing of America's national anthem. The Canadian fans joined the U.S. fans in finishing our anthem. It made me cry to find out that they knew our anthem!!
Thank you so much Adogg for this most important video. This is why every American should stand up and put his right hand over his heart and sing this Beautiful Anthem in honor of all those men who have fought for our freedom. It is a matter of pride and love for our Treasured Country. God Bless America! 🇱🇷💙❤
As a non U.S citizen, i found it to be a brilliant story, It explains a lot why the flag is so important to the American people and why it's held in such reverence .
@@winterrain1947 Amen!! Godly Americans will always stand for our flag, kneel for the cross and die on our feet, never asking or begging anyone for our lives or our freedom! #GodBlessAmerica
I never hear the National Anthem that I don't stand facing the flag put my right hand over my heart and tears come to my eyes as I Thank My God I am American.♥
Now you can see why older people get upset when people kneel during the National anthem. It's just NOT done. I've lived in other countries and while it was nice I always looked forward to coming home. It's just not here
@@ericaabbott2938 Well if you believe this story is accurate then you don't know the truth. It is a gross exaggeration of the facts to make it sound better. The truth is alway better and is still a great story.
Taking a knee has NEVER been a disrespectful gesture. Our criminal former president made it one. Is every bended knee proposal of marriage disrespectful??? Is every service man who kneel in front of a fallin soldier's gravestone disrespecting his fellow soldier???? Is trump an sob? Yes
@@eileencastillo6323 taking a knee doesn't have a damn thing to do with trump. When proposing, you are not proposing to a flag, your annology sucks as bad as your mind. Sorry to disagree with you, but coming from a long line of service people, I feel it is disrespecting it and those who fought and died for it.
You’re absolutely correct! This song means so much and a whole lot of people don’t even know the story behind it! WE THE PEOPLE WILL DIE ON OUR FEET BEFORE WE LIVE ON OUR KNEES! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯💯💯✌️✌️
@@Booksandmagic35 yes exactly!! Sadly now even if you try to teach people they won't listen and insist it's lies because they don't want to leave their bubble. It's all so sad.
@christinam.1029 yup, and there's no reasoning w them. You can't even have an opposing opinion on literally anything anymore. Heck, you're not allowed to even have an opinion anymore.
And this is why you do not kneel during the National Anthem at sporting events. It's not just disrespecting the nation, but an insult to those that have died for it.
@@Juliet475 I beg to differ. Sometimes the people who are most critical of this country are the ones who love it the most! They demand that we stand up for the values we claim. That is right and that too is defending our country. I hope you understand that someday.
...and it's supposed to never touch the ground, and be taken down and folded military style during any bad weather. Also, it's not supposed to be burned other than non reparable ones which are burned by vet clubs and boy scouts. Burning the flag during peaceful protest is also the only other way to burn it legally.
As an army wife of 20 years I still cannot listen to this song without crying. My pride is strong and my love for this country and those who protect it will always be stronger.
As a navy vet I cant help but cry when people eat this kind of BS up like it is true. But I guess you know that...right? As a vet you MUST know this vid is about 75% BS.....dont you???
Army brat here. I cry every time I hear this song and the United States Military and their families are not like it was then. The wives and children of our soldiers don’t have any respect for what their spouses do for this nation. People need to watch the movie “We Were Soldiers”. It’s the life I knew during that time. I remember the taxi cab cars coming down our street and stopping at a house, sometimes two. I saw my friend’s mom drop on their knees and crying. They disappeared that night and a new family was moving in. My very best friend didn’t show up to the bus stop one morning. A few days later I asked my mom what happened. She only told me that they had to move suddenly. Nothing more. I remember watching the news at night, hurrying to finish my homework before it came on. I’d sit in front of the tv and switch to different channels for any news about Vietnam. I didn’t listen to the news, I was watching the background to see if I could see my dad. Walter Cronkite was in Vietnam at times as a war correspondent. I’d switch from the three channels to see anything. I didn’t want to see a cab coming to our house. I just knew that if one did, you would disappear. I can’t tell you how I felt when my dad walked through the door, in his green fatigues. I seemed to die in disbelief that he was really here. Even when we kids were on the playground, and the bugle would play at dusk while taking down the flag, we all stopped, turned toward the sound of the horn and salute. You won’t find anything like that on base nowadays.
Im a Malaysian living in America . I have a green card and this was so moving . I just teared . Thank you for posting this . Now Americans, take this country back from those who have made this country a laughing stock . Teach your kids to love this country , to stand firm in the roots that has been planted in the very soil we are living on .I teach my kids to stand for the anthem , to respect the flag and every time we sing the national anthem , I would tear . . Thank you , America , for giving us the opportunity to live here .
Thank you for being a proud American citizen! I truly hope all of us will stand for true justice equality and true democracy and stop being divided by hate!!.. so many have lost their way!… I am so sad with how bad things have gotten!.. and hope that the next 4 years will be governed with all Americans being represented and that we start to heal!!…
This is the only country whose national anthem has "The bombs bursting in air" in the lyrics because were always involved in Wars and conflicts all for profit, oil, resources and trade but Americans think it's over freedom but the "fighting for freedom" narrative is just the political slogan to get the sheeple to believe that's what they're fighting for when in fact we're all free already and have been for a long time so the sheeple who believe that slogan actually give up their freedom to go fight and risk their life in another country all to make the rich even richer, you know the rich fascist 1% ruling class who control the government. Why do you think they call them soldiers? because they "sold" out to the rich and the government to become mercenaries to kill innocent people in other countries for money. So I don't worship the flag which is just a cloth or a bunch of these veterans walking around; only the veterans who had to fight under something called "The Select Service Draft" that they don't have anymore because everybody's so easily brainwashed into believing they fight Wars for freedom. "Israeli murderers are called commandos Arab commandos are called terrorists Contra Killers are called freedom fighters.. well if crime-fighters fight crime and firefighters fight fire then what do freedom Fighters fight? They never mention that part of it to us do they?" - George Carlin "This country was bought, sold and paid for a long time ago the shit they shuffle around every 4 years don't mean a f****** thing" - George Carlin "I got this real moron thing I do it's called THINKING! and I'm not a very good American because I like to form my own opinions sad to say most Americans roll over on command not me I have certain rules I live by my first rule is I don't believe anything the government tells me nothing, zero and I don't believe in the media or the press in this country who in the case of the Persian Gulf War were nothing more than unpaid employees of the department of defense who most of the time functioned as an unofficial public relations agency TV US government so I don't believe in them and I really don't believe in my country and I got to tell you folks I don't get all choked up about yellow ribbons and American flags because I consider them to be symbols and I leave symbols to the symbol minded" - George Carlin People don't see this is exactly what the ruling class who controls the government wants is for the poor and middle-class to fight each other over a piece of cloth among many other things they used to divide Us in the media they own and control like the political arena of the illusion of choice that we think we have when money runs everything and not the politicians they use as a tool to divide us with Democrats and Republicans. "Military cemeteries all around the world are packed with brainwash dead soldiers who were convinced God was on their side.. are enemies pray to God to help to defeat us, we pray to God to help to defeat our enemies...someone's going to be disappointed.. someone's wasting their f****** time, you think maybe everybody?" - George Carlin
@@tobealady.4490God loves everybody and that's common sense and if anything this would be the only country God would hate (but he doesn't) because we have the most money and all wars are about profit and America is always involved in conflict and our government and the rich who run It lie about why we go to war and say it's about fighting for freedom but we're all already free but the owners of this country know it's all about profit but they just use the "Fighting For freedom" narrative to get the sheeple to fight their wars for them so these sold out mercenaries go overseas to sometimes kill innocent civilians for money; why do you think they call them sold_iers because they sold out to the rich and the tax free government corporation for a career in killing people to make the rich even richer. Fuck that pile of crap flag (cloth) I would burn it because they use flags as a way to divide everybody and God loves everybody. People should be worshipping Jesus Christ and not a piece of cloth. "Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor Time will tell on their powered minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait until their judgment day comes" - War Pigs by Black Sabbath "Bullets repel off my medals And my men are in awe when I speak All chaos my strategy settles My mere presence gives strength to the weak To me this seems really alarming I'm really just only a man With five million SHEEP! in this army I seem to be the only one fit to command" - You're A Movie/Alice Cooper
Brought chills to me. So many people have given the ultimate sacrifice, It pains my heart to see so many that have no gratitde those that they died in order to perserve the right and freedom to spout their disrespect to everything the flag stands for. all. We are blesssed have a part of this grand experiment.
We recited The Star Spangled Banner and The Lord's Prayer EVERY Morning when I was in School. I'm 62 and PROUD THAT I WAS RAISED TO RESPECT AND LOVE GOD AND AMERICIA!!!!!
And u know why? All because " others coming to America biting off the rights of civil rights" and being offended by prayer and singing that American song " my country this of thee sweet land of liberty" so many kids today " do not even know the song or any of American patriotic songs..
My dad was a career Naval Officer. WW2;Korea; and 3 tours to Vietnam. When he and mom retired back to Arkansas; the first thing he did was put a shower in. He said he would never wash his face with the same water he washed his butt in! The 2nd thing he did was have a flag pole cemented in the side yard. After he died with a military funeral; and the flag that was covering his coffin was folded and presented to Mom was so touching. This may sound crazy to a lot of people; but I am glad he has left this earth and can’t see how things are in America today. Beautiful song. All Americans need to watch this! God bless America!🙏🏻🇺🇸
Have seen this over 50 times & literally STILL cry with pride & appreciation to those Patriots who kept us from being taken over by the British! Thank God! 😔🙏🏻🇺🇸
my ancestor was a brig. gen. and fought alongside Washington. most of my family has served. I instill in my children the importance of our flag and that if it ever touches the ground, even briefly, it is to be folded, burned, and its ashes buried while someone maintains a salute until it is done. The price that was paid for by those men/women is why those stripes run red.
That had me crying, I do not remember learning that the reason our Flag stood through that whole battle was because of those men who held it up so that it wouldn’t fall. Such courage and fortitude those men had. Thank you for posting this video. I’m very grateful to be an American.
I remember my History teacher showing the History of Our National Anthem And there was not a dry eye in the classroom. Everytime I hear Our National Anthem my Heart swells up, the tears start to flow. I lose my breath. AND now I am in Great Fear for Our Country..and Our Citizens.. for we now face our worst and most scariest of Enemy's .Those that strive to Create hate amongst us .To turn Americans against one another... We the People need to show our Enemies in DC.. We do not take a Knee We will not Lower Our Flag... We will Come together as 1 Nation ..Raising Our Flag ,Our Hearts and Souls to Show Our Love for America is Stronger than the DC Mob..We Can and We Must. WIN Back Our Country With Peace and Love in our Hearts.. Evil can not Survive a Great Abundance of Love and Harmony .. . As this Video Shows us all. GOD Bless America and American's Past ,Present and Future.. Lets work together an Send out Love for our Fellow Man ...
This is so beautiful to see and hear those where men back then not anymore please pray and keep our country safe and free from the politicians that are taking it to the ground...God bless and protect
I heard this for the first time about 3 months ago.. it brought tears to my eyes then and again this time.. I’m Australian but this moved me .. God bless America and your flag 🇺🇸🇦🇺🙏🏼
Young man, I did watch that video with you and my heart swells so big knowing that you, I and most of us Americans are so GRATEFUL that those Patriots gave their blood for our freedom!! That makes us Patriots also!! We will continue to stand proudly for our Anthem and Flag!

I'm in my 60s and it was taught to us everyday! It was instilled in us how important and why. We were being taught how to be Americans and everyone was proud to uphold that tradition. 🇺🇸🤗🥰
@King Schen yessss the 80s! We even were required to take a home economics class to teach us balancing checking accounts, budgeting, savings, we even were required to carry a 5# bag of flour around as our 'baby' so we learned that responsibility too. This was both boys and girls... we all had our flour babies... I think it was a 2 week responsibility maybe a month (been a few years-lol).
@@fondaholland1595 absolutely! I grew up in an area where there is a major naval base - we never disrespected the flag nor the sailors. We celebrated them and our freedoms.
Every time I hear this story and hear our Anthem❤️🇺🇸tears and sadness at the lack of respect 😢God Bless these United States🇺🇸 It’s a disgrace that love of country and flag is no longer taught in our schools😢
Thank you for playing this. So many Americans have no clue what the star spangled banner means, or the American flag. I’m a Marine (89-95) to this day I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes knowing the sacrifices that were made. We are fortunate to live here , yes we still have differences of opinions but we have rights afforded to us.
Not for long. America is dead. I thank you, I'm 23 and I love and respect what you have done. For me to have my freedoms. Now, I don't think Americans are worth dying for. They gave up their freedoms for comfort and generation by generation, the men got more and more weak. This nation won't last long. But nontheless I will die on my feet deemed by the government, a terrorist and a racist for being white. I will not kneel, that is for God.
Thank you for doing your part. There are so many who want to rip our flag down even today, but even more are still fighting for it. It is the symbol of freedom.
Amen ... that was beautiful .... this is what the children need to see and learn from!!! Father Thank you for hearing their prayers 🙏 that day!!! Praise be to our Father!!
This brought tears to my eyes. I still remember singing “The Star Spangled Banner” in school & learning of its origin, it’s sad to think our children,country & nation are being robbed of this beautiful history & meaning. Thank you for this. God Bless America 🇺🇸🎆
Me too, every single morning after the first bell rings , we would have attendance taken and immediately after we stood up , hand over our hearts and recited our Star Spangled banner .
I have literally watched this being reacted to at least 15 times and it always brings tears to my eyes. I love America, and I will never disrespect the flag.
I was going to say the same thing. Everyone who has shown this video is touched thru their core with what this flag means to us. We WILL continue to fight against these commies trying to take over our FREE LIVING COUNTRY and turn it into a tyrannical regime! WE THE PEOPLE WILL NEVER EVER LET THAT HAPPEN even if it means we give the ultimate sacrifice as our countrymen did way back in the beginning!
I agree,,since some of these people don't like America,,then leave,,no one is forcing you to stay here,,find something else to worry about,,like go back wherever you came from,,this is my country,,I'm proud to be an American..born and raised here..
I am Australian. I was born in Indonesia. I have never come across a national anthem that moves me like The Star Spangled Banner. I have no explanation for it. It just stirs my heart and puts tears in my eyes.

I have lived in America my entire life, 81 years. I learned our National Anthem in the first grade. We discovered what it meant as we grew up. we were taught respect and love for our Country, our Military, and our Anthem. I am so saddened we have forgotten what made America great. I still get filled up when I hear this beautiful homage to those men & women who kept our Stars and Stripes flying against all adversity. Thanx to God. We have forgotten too much. I pray daily for a resurgence of Patriotism in this country.
No matter how many times I hear this, I get tears in my eyes. It breaks my heart that so many people who were blessed to be born in this country don't appreciate what we have.
Our flag was & is paid for in blood of the patriots! I get emotional everytime i hear this story... my heart burst with pride of the America we love...& cries at the mockery of todays politics both in the government & civilian populations... Thank you for playing this video. Be blessed patriot...
Nobody died holding up any flag...war of 1812...the great Garrison flag....battle of fort Mchenry....look up these REAL events that this video is about.
Made me cry haven't heard this in yrs...Our country has taken Freedom for Granted...Thank God for ALL who knows the TRUTH and still stands to Our Flag and Freedom!!
Thank you for this video. Everyone, especially younger people, need to learn about this history and why our National Anthem and flag are so important to this country.
Libs think its more important to teach kids that they are all trans instead of things like this. These are the things Libs don't want people knowing about.
That song always makes me cry...it's a beautiful, heart wrenching ,song, I LOVE IT...& cry every time I hear it....fills me with honor & pride for what this beautiful Nation IS SUPPOSED TO BE & STAND FOR.... I STAND WITH GOD ALWAYS, AND..IN GOD I TRUST..
I came to visit the USA to fulfill my dream and met the love of my life the same day i arrived. Went back home and returned two months later to marry my beloved. I became a Citizen soon as the law allowed and the pride and love for America kept growing in my heart and mind. This video brought back more sparks and light to flourish my love for this Land of the Free Under God always!
Throughout my entire life every time I've heard "The Stars Spangled Banner" I get goose bumps and I cry. This story tells me why. Thank you for showing this.

This was the War of 1812, and the name of the fort is actually Fort McHenry, which is now a national shrine. I lived within walking distance of the fort as I grew up in Baltimore, in the 1940s and 50s. We learned of this battle, in Baltimore Harbor, when I was in public school. It makes me feel very proud of my country, and grateful to be an American.
Can't help but be a proud American ,it makes me cry everytime my heart swells and I can't catch me breath !!! It breaks my heart that it is now hated by people that live in this very country
@@cohort2796 but say which people you're talking about 👀🤔 you won't but you'll make slick azz comments like the one you just made but we all know what you mean! Gtfoh
Had me bawling!! For the disrespect seen everyday by people in office in OUR COUNTRY!! So sad that they try so hard to divide us up by race, religion, gender and any and All ways!! OUR ANTHEM should be played on repeat in all public places!! jmo
I STOOD UP AND HELD MY HAND TO MY HEART CRYING 💯💯💯💯💯❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥 AND WHY DOESN'T THIS EMOGI'S NOT HAVE THE AMERICAN FLAG BUT DOES HAVE THE LBGQ FLAG??????
Da Read I did cry because every time I hear the Star spangled banner I know what it represents I watched it all the way to the end I hold my left hand up to my heart and pledge allegiance to the flag to the United States of America and to the Republic one nation under God indivisible to liberty and justice for all Amen Love you God bless you 🙏🙏🙏 ❤❤❤
I’ve been alive for over half a century and have never heard this story. It makes me feel ever more grateful to those that fight for us and this land❤❤
This is why we ALL use to stand proudly with our hands over our hearts & tears in our eyes, we said the pledge of our allegiance & sang the National Anthem!!! Thank you for posting this! God bless you Sir! 🙏🏽
Every American should here this! I’m 57 and this is the first time I’ve heard this. These patriots died for us to have a free country!! God bless them. If people don’t wake up and do something to save our country from the U.S. government that has sold us out for power and greed, it’ll be gone forever with our freedom. Not to do anything after these brave men died to keep our flag raised up, would be in vein and downright sinful!! If you don’t like living here, then get your ass out and go live somewhere else. Yeah, I said it! We the People are supposed to be in charge! Biden, you’re fired! Harris, you’re fired! No more money laundering in Ukraine! God Bless America!!
I get chills whenever I hear the properly sung rendition of the national anthem. When I see people disrespecting the anthem it really bothers me. Especially knowing this story.
When I hear our National Anthem being sung before an event it always brings goosebumps. Now, it'll bring even more and tears as well. Take care of each other America!!
This is why I always Stand for our Flag. It is not the Flag's fault that America has its faults. When people take a knee or turn their backs it disgusts me.
I learn this the hard way during Pandemic when Chinese people kneel down in front of officials to ask for food. Then it hits me, what if Chinese people have guns? I went from anti-gun to fully support 2A.
Yep. When multi million dollar athletes who are at the top of their field because they live in the land of the free and the home of the brave disrespect the flag it makes me sick
@@johnwong5317 Good! I do not understand people that trust the government enough to put all the weapons in their hands, while the People are left with a slingshot. In WWII, the Japanese didn't attack the mainland because "They have a gun behind every blade of grass."
It makes me sick when particular white people condon police excessive violence against and reckless murder of other US citizens without cause. As a United States citizens, our First Amendment rights allow us protest when liberty and justice for all, IS NOT THAT AT ALL. White America has never been good with a Black man leading a nation wide protest. Makes them nervous. I wonder why???
X-Navy and in my 60's, I STILL stand and salute when I hear this song. I will honor to my death those that gave their lives so that we could live free. Memorial Day means more than beer and a day off from work, it means that we will STAND for our freedom in the face of evil tyrants, and we will NEVER GIVE IN!! Keep learning, your journey has just begun, but we are PROUD that you have opened your eyes!!
When I started to read your comment, my glasses would blur out. All I could read was " " Every time I heard the National anthem at the end, I feel nothing." I thought, "Oh boy, I'm going to get a can of whoop @$$ out." So I re-read the sentence, and the same thing happened. I thought this person has to be dead inside if they felt nothing after hearing Francis Scott Key greatest work. Then, on the third attempt, I finally was able to read your whole comment with pride. God bless you.
As a black woman i am brought up to believe that the freedom earned that day was only for white ppl, but in the end we are here and free, all of us. Wow, u are never too old to learn something. Thanks bro
JUST SOME INFO One casualty at the fort was William Williams. In a ditch behind the fort, was a man that was born enslaved. As a slave his born name was Frederick Hall he escaped joined the American Army, under a new name called William Williams. His right leg was severed by a British shell that burst near him. So Private William Williams one of the poorest guys of the young Republic, at that time officially not even considered a citizen by the very country he died defending the Fort. So it wasn't just whites defending that flag.
It took us and embarrassingly long time to figure it out but freedom was won for everyone that day. You are correct your here today so that freedom was won for you as well.
Do you know the whole song? Because this is just the 1st verse. Read the 3rd verse and look up who the songwriter Francis Scott Key was. Then make up your mind.
@LavitosExodius no it wasn't. It was 1814. Black people weren't free for nearly another 30-40 years. In fact, black people would've had a better chance at being free if America LOST the war, since the British were known to offer freedom to black people who fought against the colonists. Plus, Britain also officially abolished slavery in 1830 (way before America) and they didn't need a civil war to do it.
I agree with the statement we have to start loving our country again! I’ve always been patriotic. I love this country deeply and am ashamed of the folks currently running this country. I want nothing more than to see the USA be great again. In my estimation, only one man can lead this country to greatness again. I pray that President Donald Trump is triumphant to take this nation to greatness once again. Let freedom ring. God bless America! Thank you for this fantastic video, I’m crying after watching it. It was so powerful! The USA is the greatest nation on Earth. Let’s not forget it lest it be taken from us forever.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
What American once was, and stood for, bears no resembance to what America is, and what she stands for today. It's understandable to be proud of what she was, but it makes zero sense to be proud of what she is. Those who understand this will stop chanting mindless patriotic drivel and instead, stand for what she once stood for. That will make you an enemy of modern-day America, but it doesn't make you any less patriotic. In contrast, standing for the corruption that has overcome America today, as if you're somehow standing for what she once was -- a defiance against an inhuman king -- is to be ignorant to an embarrassing degree. Those who fail to distinguish between these two ideals are puppets of those in power; those who rightly divide the truth are the true patriots of the ideals that inspired people to stand against an unjust king.
Even singing this as a small child, I knew it meant something important and wonderful. Lord please don't let it be taken down. It stands for our love of God, our freedoms and rights as Americans.💗
All we have to do is stop spending money on anything that supports the "agree with me or your a terrible human being" fascist and oppressive ideology. Those who use insults and cancel those who speak the truth are part of a very destructive ideology. The path to hell truly can be paved with good intentions. Life is so complex people can develop fascist and oppressive ideology without even knowing it. To judge someone without knowing their INTENT will bring nothing but pain and suffering to our nation.
This is probably the most powerful video you have ever made. Thank you. We, as Americans, owe a huge debt to those who went before us. Many made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure the freedom we all enjoy today. I will always stand next to my Brothers to defend our Country, no matter the cost. May God Bless America.
It's not just Super Bowl, but it's EVERY sporting event. Every Hat is removed and the right hand over our hearts, with 70,000 people singing this song in unison. Never let the flag touch the ground. And they wonder why Americans fly the US and State flags EVERYWHERE!!!!
I have seen this many times and seeing the reactions. I know I am a bit late on this but I just want to say that my dad was a WW2 vet. This brings me to tears from time to time when ever I have watched it and finally seeing how many people are actually learning more and more about what has happened. The history behind the flag finally being seen and told to those who may not know about it. To finally have something in history that everyone should watch, learn and read about. Now people should understand why when this flag is on the ground and being burned does it really upset people and how angry people get. It's almost as if people are being disrespectful and not understanding the story behind it. BUT! This history. This story. Thank you for sharing it with your community. Thank you to those whom continue to show respect for the flag and for those who continue to fight for the freedom and honoring those vets.
I am very proud to be an American. Thank you for doing this video. There’s a lot of unrest in this country right now. Many, many young, uneducated, and disrespectful Americans say some horrible things about this free country they benefit from every day. We know when we lay our heads on our pillow at night we are free and have the brave souls who fight to keep us safe and free! It has been said, “ Freedom ain’t free!” These disrespectful & dishonorable people should go spend some time in other countries and they would be BEGGING to come back home! Just recently at MEMORIAL DAY celebration a group of teenagers ATTACKED a group of Marines on a beach while they were celebrating Memorial Day! How disgusting and embarrassing. These people would give their lives for us and that’s how these disgusting, uneducated people responsible for these abominations treat the very ones who protect them and their loved ones. My children and grandchildren will grow up in the safest, most free country on Earth. I am thankful beyond belief and wouldn’t have it any other way!! Thank you for doing this video. I can only hope some of the embarrassments to our country will see this and recognize how much of an embarrassment to the USA they are, and hopefully change their ways. Great job, I love the channel…Subscribed for sure!
Yea. It defies all logic and loyalty that our Country’s flag is offensive, and that people are allegedly “afraid of the American flag.” I think that has been grossly overblown by our Mainstream media, and I do not necessarily believe it. For such a terrible place we are being told it is, people are surely clamoring to get into this country. This country still represents freedom and liberty to many the world over.
My uncles served in the military, my father served, I’ve served, all of us proud to do so. This country has been through a lot, and during all of it, the flag flew. And now, with all the b.s. happening in our country, that flag means more now than it ever did. It may be a little worn around the edges, but I still revere the flag and all it stands for.
Adogg, this was your best message yet. I am reading the comments, and crying too. It makes me almost think we will survive. America The Beautiful. Please don’t ever look away from our flag.🇺🇸
The patriots that died holding that flag up should be enough for all Americans to have absolute respect during the presentation of that song when ever it is played. Amen brother I watched it all with you. Thank you!!
Damn! Story had me in TEARS! WOW! Ill never look at this anthem the same again. They should be teaching this in schools! THIS IS AMERICAN HISTORY! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
They used to teach patriotism,to respect our country,the sacrifices many have made for it. Then came the hippie generation,Liberal college professors, marijuana ,crack and meth, gangsta rap. A pot of hot putrified behavior.Add that to self serving criminal minds ,and here we are
I pray that my grandchildren will be privileged enough to have a History teacher who cares about the students that much to share this very important story.
@@melaninmonroe1833 I agree whole heartedly. My book shelves is full of history books covering many timelines, my kids will not need the internet for their history classes.
Thank you for sharing this, Mr Adogg! It brings me to tears how our beautiful country AMERICA is slowly being torn down! Let’s keep fighting for our freedom, Americans! God Bless America! 🇺🇸
My parents' parents came to the United States seeking freedom from religious persecution. My Father fought in WW2. The 'Star Spangled Banner' has always filled me with pride. Today, I cried while listening to this and then the heart rendering version of the song, hoping America can survive the onslaught of bad!
My Dad was a career Army soldier and he took our family to Fort McHenry when we were kids and lived in Maryland. This is a true beautiful story. I’m also a Army veteran too. I love The USA 🇺🇸 we defeated the British Army that day our flag stood , the British still tried to invade the US years later trying to come through to the upper US through Canada and into one of the Great Lakes. We defeated them again. Thank God!
My dad was in the Navy when he served in WWII. When he died, as is customary, the Navy handed me a properly folded U.S. flag. It means the world to me, and I have it prominently displayed in my home in my dads' honor. ♥️ Thank you for reviewing this video.
I was at a veterans cemetery today and the sea of flags over many many graves was sobering. Thank you to every person who put on a uniform to protect our freedom. And I had all four of my grandchildren with me and even they were quite moved.
I thought that the national cemetery in San Bruno, Calif was a very impactful sight to behold. Then I had the opportunity to visit Arlington, the Vietnam war memorial and other tributes to our fallen heros. They altered my perspective, forever, and I gained a profoundly new appreciation for our history. Heart wrenching!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful reaction! ❤ Ive seen this flag. Shes on display at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC. Yes, shes in tatters, but she still exists to remind us of the sacrifice to free us and keep us free to this day! This happened during batte from War of 1812 when british were trying to take us back over. We hadnt been a free country for that long and british were chapped over us winning our independence during Revolutionary War. They considered us weak and called us "a bunch if farmers with nothing but pitchforks." Well, i guess we had some damn good pitchforks! This is why we never let our flag toych the ground and also why during Olympics, we refuse to tip her down to country hosting the games. That goes back to George Washington's saying about dying on our feet. We bow to NOBODY. We arent trying to be rude, but we stand by our belief. This should be taught in schools. Perhaps if if was, folks wouldnt kneel, or spit, stomp on her or burn her. Our flag isnt about our government. Shes about US as her people. ALL OF US! "WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. " Sound familiar? Again, thank you for your reaction. May God bless you always! ❤❤🎉🎉
@@jaclynns.jungle Thank you and your welcome! Have a lovely day! I'm recovering from knee replacement surgery, so no fun, but you made me smile. Thank you!😊
Thank you for sharing this today as we remember and honour all of those that paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of their country and our freedoms. God bless all those left behind, and those of us who remain will always remember and honour those fallen comrades with humility.
That brought tears to my eyes. We are the land of freedom, and the bravery shown on that night proved to the world that we would NEVER give up. That is why it brakes my heart to see those who would kneel before our flag. Our flag is the symbol that we never gave up. We held the line for freedom. Lives were lost that day. Lives continue to this day to be lost to maintain the freedom that so may take for granted. God Bless America. 🇺🇲
Our Flag means so much to me and please keep our Red White and Blue flying high. God Bless Francis Scott Key for writing 🙏 this beautiful song for All Americans 🇺🇸
This video is why when I stand for are anthem I always remember this and feel some sorrow for the people who fought to keep us from having to be ruled by a monarchy and I also feel thankful that they they fought for us and never gave up so when I hear are anthem I never forget and never will I salute to are veterans because they are the reason why we are living in this free country
The men who fought and kept raising the flag again and again. We owe them a debt that can never be repaid.
Yes we do and that's why we won't let our Country fall!!! Democrats have woken the "sleeping giant" in us Conservatives and we will fight to death for our freedom!
We can repay it by not losing what they paid for.
And fools cast it down and replace it with a flag to celebrate that they're banging someone... They disgrace our flag, and a disgrace the rainbow. Once a beautiful symbol of peace and unity turned into a symbol of rebellious debauchery. Much like how Hitler corrupted the swastika.
Evil cannot create. It can only corrupt.
We owe a debt to people who never existed? That's strange.
By the way, George Washington never said "The thing that sets the American Christian apart from all other people in the world is he will die on his feet before he will live on his knees." Like nearly everything else in this video, it's a fabrication.
By the way, only 4 people died and 25 were wounded after the British bombardment of Fort McHenry. So there were no "patriot bodies" holding up the flag. The Fort itself took very little damage from the shelling and bombardment. This myth seems to originate with a minister David C. Gibbs Jr. from back in 2008.
You people make me embarrassed to be a Conservative.
You as the Americans should not have attacked Canadian Parliament at York Town, and we burned your white house down ,you did get beat, but as liars you did keep fighting in the south, when the war was over, comics waste of life. Britain did keep the states on the North of America and Canada was free from American terrorists. Read the history properly.
This is why we STAND for the National Anthem.
Amen!
Dam rite
Amen
AMEN AMEN AMEN! FOR GOD AND COUNTRY !!!
Remember 9/11 they actually hit the Pentagon with a single prop vehicle.
Everything happening now is setting up two things, a revisted experience of the 2010 u.n. Agenda, now known as the 2030 u.n agenda and they trying to test our Father and his patience ❤️
I am American, born and raised. My grandpa was a veteran,WW1, my dad WW2, my brother Vietnam . I am proud to be of Mexican heritage.Proud of this United States of America. My husband was Mexican but so proud when he became an American citizen. God Bless our Country.
Thank your family for their service.

I’ve always had a huge respect for my country and our flag but this gave me a whole new appreciation for it! What an amazing tale of bravery! Brought me to tears! GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸!
AMEN! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amen. The most beautiful song ever and I hate those who talk during it is sung or played and show no respect. And those who think adding their on additional notes should learn to sing
It as written.
This is not true. Key wrote the poem from his ship. He only had one prisoner released, The ships would not get to close to Fort McHenry because their guns would sink them. Only 4 people died at the fort. Almost all of the 1800 bombs and 700 rockets missed the fort. They fought all night against land invaders not because of the ships bombing.
Doug im torn up if we get socialist communist people in office what then??!! They busted it for nothing !!?? I lost my husband for nothing !!
Yes its the real true story how the star spangled banner was written
We have to start LOVING our Country again and start teaching the children what America means and to LOVE her. ♥♥
We must pass on these beautiful stories. We took a lot of granted, that’s something we have to live with. Our mistakes. Let’s not allow the next generation to fall as we did.
The other 2 verses of the National Anthem are as poewrful and need to be sung as well. They are the words setting us apart by God in this world. Time to start listening and stop bickering amonst ourselves. There is a very powerful evil that is being put upon the American people through the use of our children. Parents - teach your children well
@@irritatingtruth9121 _"We must pass on these beautiful stories."_
it would be better to tell the truth rather than the fictional story told in this video.
@@JohnLeePettimoreIII What was fictional about it?
A very appropriate video to be watching at the beginning of 'Pride Month'
We owe all our fallen veterans that left this earth defending this country our utmost respect. We can never forget their sacrifice, and not let what they fought for be destroyed by corruption or greed. Without freedom, we are nothing.
You got it, that makes me very happy.
Not just the fallen... Any vet we should respect as they put there life on the line for this country. They may have got medical problems from when they served, but still got back home...
It’s over a million we lost so far
The last war America fought for liberty and freedom for Americans was the war of 1812.
Yes yes i miss my husband so bad! Love you . But as we the people we must carry there work!!
I saw a game in Canada and the sound system malfunctioned during the singing of America's national anthem. The Canadian fans joined the U.S. fans in finishing our anthem. It made me cry to find out that they knew our anthem!!
We have been neighbours for so long. Sometimes you just have help out.
It brought tears to my eyes when I heard this as well.
Amazing!
I’m not surprised they know despite our issues in this country with the current administration we still have it better than they do up there
Most people in Canada do not know the American National Anthem. It is great that the ones who attended he game knew the American National Anthem
Thank you so much Adogg for this most important video. This is why every American should stand up and put his right hand over his heart and sing this Beautiful Anthem in honor of all those men who have fought for our freedom. It is a matter of pride and love for our Treasured Country. God Bless America! 🇱🇷💙❤
As a non U.S citizen, i found it to be a brilliant story,
It explains a lot why the flag is so important to the American people and why it's held in such reverence .
those words: We will die on our feet before we live on our knees.
That is what is represented by our flag.
@johnsharp6618
Thank you for commenting!🩷
@@winterrain1947 Oh, I know right?! Amazing beyond words!❤️🤍💙
@@winterrain1947 Amen!! Godly Americans will always stand for our flag, kneel for the cross and die on our feet, never asking or begging anyone for our lives or our freedom! #GodBlessAmerica
Thank you for understanding 🙏🏽💯
Cold chills all over...our beautiful United States of America Flag, Old Glory, We The People must always make sure it waves FREE over America!
I'm a Canadian and this was so moving. I'm very happy to call Americans my friends and neighbors.
Thanks for this.
@Smith Wesson Right back at you! I'm not far from the Canada border and I adore our northern neighbors. 🤗
Ditto from America! ❤
Thank you. We love our Canadian brothers and sisters too. True Americans have much pride in our flag and our country. Much ✌️❤️
Those same fires of patriotism burned within the hearts of Canadians too. It's time to reignite them. Stand for yourselves again
Smith Wesson - Us, you too, Friend!
🇨🇦 🙏🇺🇸
I never hear the National Anthem that I don't stand facing the flag put my right hand over my heart and tears come to my eyes as I Thank My God I am American.♥
This is why our flag should never touch the ground🇺🇸
I was going to say the same thing. We're Americans before we are anything. We can never lose sight of that, no matter what!
@@HappyValleyDreamin 💯 We ain’t perfect but we America’s above everything.
It's also why we stand for the National Anthem, kneeling is a disgrace for any American.
Now you can see why older people get upset when people kneel during the National anthem. It's just NOT done. I've lived in other countries and while it was nice I always looked forward to coming home. It's just not here
💯💯💯💯💯
Flag should NEVER touch the ground. Nor should anyone ever take a knee during it.
Amen!! ❤️🇺🇸💝
Amen! Sadly, most of the people that do kneel probably don't even know the history.
@@ericaabbott2938 Well if you believe this story is accurate then you don't know the truth. It is a gross exaggeration of the facts to make it sound better. The truth is alway better and is still a great story.
Taking a knee has NEVER been a disrespectful gesture.
Our criminal former president made it one.
Is every bended knee proposal of marriage disrespectful???
Is every service man who kneel in front of a fallin soldier's gravestone disrespecting his fellow soldier????
Is trump an sob?
Yes
@@eileencastillo6323 taking a knee doesn't have a damn thing to do with trump. When proposing, you are not proposing to a flag, your annology sucks as bad as your mind. Sorry to disagree with you, but coming from a long line of service people, I feel it is disrespecting it and those who fought and died for it.
You’re absolutely correct! This song means so much and a whole lot of people don’t even know the story behind it! WE THE PEOPLE WILL DIE ON OUR FEET BEFORE WE LIVE ON OUR KNEES! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯💯💯✌️✌️

For the people that has disrepected our flag needs to wake up these military people gave their life for our freedom and Country SO YOU CAN BE FREE
Yup!! These men died to give these brats the freedom to make a mockery of this poem. If they only knew the story behind the anthem. It's so sad
@@cherilynkirschbaum2044it needs to be taught so it’s out there so this country all these brats know the truth but they don’t want to teach it
@@Booksandmagic35 yes exactly!! Sadly now even if you try to teach people they won't listen and insist it's lies because they don't want to leave their bubble. It's all so sad.

@christinam.1029 yup, and there's no reasoning w them. You can't even have an opposing opinion on literally anything anymore. Heck, you're not allowed to even have an opinion anymore.
And this is why you do not kneel during the National Anthem at sporting events. It's not just disrespecting the nation, but an insult to those that have died for it.
That's right. We will die on our feet before living on our knees. Words worth dieing to. ❤🇺🇲
AMEN!!!😊😊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Still not being right to kneel it's still within his freedom to do so
@@thecrew2128Perhaps freedom to do so, however then leave this country.
@@Juliet475 I beg to differ. Sometimes the people who are most critical of this country are the ones who love it the most! They demand that we stand up for the values we claim. That is right and that too is defending our country. I hope you understand that someday.
This is why our flag is so precious and should be honored respected and stood for 🇺🇸
...and it's supposed to never touch the ground, and be taken down and folded military style during any bad weather.
Also, it's not supposed to be burned other than non reparable ones which are burned by vet clubs and boy scouts.
Burning the flag during peaceful protest is also the only other way to burn it legally.
My flag never comes down and when it rains me and my sons fold it together
Amen!
As an army wife of 20 years I still cannot listen to this song without crying. My pride is strong and my love for this country and those who protect it will always be stronger.

As a navy vet I cant help but cry when people eat this kind of BS up like it is true. But I guess you know that...right? As a vet you MUST know this vid is about 75% BS.....dont you???
Well you take it how you choose and i will do the same
Army brat here. I cry every time I hear this song and the United States Military and their families are not like it was then. The wives and children of our soldiers don’t have any respect for what their spouses do for this nation. People need to watch the movie “We Were Soldiers”. It’s the life I knew during that time. I remember the taxi cab cars coming down our street and stopping at a house, sometimes two. I saw my friend’s mom drop on their knees and crying. They disappeared that night and a new family was moving in. My very best friend didn’t show up to the bus stop one morning. A few days later I asked my mom what happened. She only told me that they had to move suddenly. Nothing more.
I remember watching the news at night, hurrying to finish my homework before it came on. I’d sit in front of the tv and switch to different channels for any news about Vietnam. I didn’t listen to the news, I was watching the background to see if I could see my dad. Walter Cronkite was in Vietnam at times as a war correspondent. I’d switch from the three channels to see anything. I didn’t want to see a cab coming to our house. I just knew that if one did, you would disappear. I can’t tell you how I felt when my dad walked through the door, in his green fatigues. I seemed to die in disbelief that he was really here.
Even when we kids were on the playground, and the bugle would play at dusk while taking down the flag, we all stopped, turned toward the sound of the horn and salute. You won’t find anything like that on base nowadays.
This is history of our nation! It should be taught in our schools!!!!❤ i still get goosebumps whenever it is played.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I have a difficult time singing THE Anthem without getting choked up .
God blessed our country .
I made it to the end !

This is the only country whose national anthem has
"The bombs bursting in air" in the lyrics because were always involved in Wars and conflicts all for profit, oil, resources and trade but Americans think it's over freedom but the "fighting for freedom" narrative is just the political slogan to get the sheeple to believe that's what they're fighting for when in fact we're all free already and have been for a long time so the sheeple who believe that slogan actually give up their freedom to go fight and risk their life in another country all to make the rich even richer, you know the rich fascist 1% ruling class who control the government.
Why do you think they call them soldiers? because they "sold" out to the rich and the government to become mercenaries to kill innocent people in other countries for money. So I don't worship the flag which is just a cloth or a bunch of these veterans walking around; only the veterans who had to fight under something called
"The Select Service Draft" that they don't have anymore because everybody's so easily brainwashed into believing they fight Wars for freedom.

And u know why? All because " others coming to America biting off the rights of civil rights" and being offended by prayer and singing that American song " my country this of thee sweet land of liberty" so many kids today " do not even know the song or any of American patriotic songs..
My dad was a career Naval Officer. WW2;Korea; and 3 tours to Vietnam. When he and mom retired back to Arkansas; the first thing he did was put a shower in. He said he would never wash his face with the same water he washed his butt in! The 2nd thing he did was have a flag pole cemented in the side yard. After he died with a military funeral; and the flag that was covering his coffin was folded and presented to Mom was so touching. This may sound crazy to a lot of people; but I am glad he has left this earth and can’t see how things are in America today. Beautiful song. All Americans need to watch this! God bless America!🙏🏻🇺🇸
Have seen this over 50 times & literally STILL cry with pride & appreciation to those Patriots who kept us from being taken over by the British! Thank God! 😔🙏🏻🇺🇸

my ancestor was a brig. gen. and fought alongside Washington. most of my family has served. I instill in my children the importance of our flag and that if it ever touches the ground, even briefly, it is to be folded, burned, and its ashes buried while someone maintains a salute until it is done. The price that was paid for by those men/women is why those stripes run red.
Same here. I choke up every time.
We had a lot of brave men back then.
That had me crying, I do not remember learning that the reason our Flag stood through that whole battle was because of those men who held it up so that it wouldn’t fall. Such courage and fortitude those men had. Thank you for posting this video. I’m very grateful to be an American.
I remember my History teacher showing the History of Our National Anthem And there was not a dry eye in the classroom. Everytime I hear Our National Anthem my Heart swells up, the tears start to flow. I lose my breath. AND now I am in Great Fear for Our Country..and Our Citizens.. for we now face our worst and most scariest of Enemy's .Those that strive to Create hate amongst us .To turn Americans against one another... We the People need to show our Enemies in DC.. We do not take a Knee We will not Lower Our Flag... We will Come together as 1 Nation ..Raising Our Flag ,Our Hearts and Souls to Show Our Love for America is Stronger than the DC Mob..We Can and We Must. WIN Back Our Country With Peace and Love in our Hearts.. Evil can not Survive a Great Abundance of Love and Harmony .. . As this Video Shows us all. GOD Bless America and American's Past ,Present and Future.. Lets work together an Send out Love for our Fellow Man ...
I Agree 💯.
With knowledge comes wisdom, strength and power. Our 6 th grade teacher taught us about the history of national anthem and our flag.
This is so beautiful to see and hear those where men back then not anymore please pray and keep our country safe and free from the politicians that are taking it to the ground...God bless and protect
I heard this for the first time about 3 months ago.. it brought tears to my eyes then and again this time.. I’m Australian but this moved me .. God bless America and your flag 🇺🇸🇦🇺🙏🏼
And me mate
THANKYOU and Godbless Australia Patriots!!! ♥️👍🌎🌎🌎🌎🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for that ! I pray for God to bless your beautiful country also!!
Thank you for your sweet words and support!! 😊❤
And God bless our brothers and sisters in Australia, too.
From one soldier to my brothers from the past , "salute" 🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET THE SACRIFICE THOSE MEN MADE .
Amen alleluia !!
Young man, I did watch that video with you and my heart swells so big knowing that you, I and most of us Americans are so GRATEFUL that those Patriots gave their blood for our freedom!! That makes us Patriots also!! We will continue to stand proudly for our Anthem and Flag!
❤
May God bless America.
A sacrifice made in blood. A price was demanded. The price was paid. Innocent men, women, and children. God blesses those who are brave ❤🇺🇸
This is not true. Key wrote the poem from his ship. He only had one prisoner released, The ships would not get to close to Fort McHenry because their guns would sink them. Only 4 people died at the fort. Almost all of the 1800 bombs and 700 rockets missed the fort. They fought all night against land invaders not because of the ships bombing.
They should teach this in school and to all who are working on becoming Americans. I had never heard this story. I cried ❤
@@melisia8876yeah, I learned about this also in the 80’s in school. Nowadays they are teaching our kids to be trans 🤔
I'm in my 60s and it was taught to us everyday! It was instilled in us how important and why. We were being taught how to be Americans and everyone was proud to uphold that tradition. 🇺🇸🤗🥰
@King Schen yessss the 80s! We even were required to take a home economics class to teach us balancing checking accounts, budgeting, savings, we even were required to carry a 5# bag of flour around as our 'baby' so we learned that responsibility too. This was both boys and girls... we all had our flour babies... I think it was a 2 week responsibility maybe a month (been a few years-lol).
@@fondaholland1595 absolutely! I grew up in an area where there is a major naval base - we never disrespected the flag nor the sailors. We celebrated them and our freedoms.
Every time I hear this story and hear our Anthem❤️🇺🇸tears and sadness at the lack of respect 😢God Bless these United States🇺🇸
It’s a disgrace that love of country and flag is no longer taught in our schools😢
Thank you for playing this. So many Americans have no clue what the star spangled banner means, or the American flag. I’m a Marine (89-95) to this day I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes knowing the sacrifices that were made. We are fortunate to live here , yes we still have differences of opinions but we have rights afforded to us.
Not for long. America is dead. I thank you, I'm 23 and I love and respect what you have done. For me to have my freedoms. Now, I don't think Americans are worth dying for. They gave up their freedoms for comfort and generation by generation, the men got more and more weak. This nation won't last long. But nontheless I will die on my feet deemed by the government, a terrorist and a racist for being white. I will not kneel, that is for God.
Same here brother. USMC 2000-2004. Gets me right in tha feelz!
This is a DISSERVICE this vid is a pack of lies. Look up what REALLY happened during the war of 1812 at Fort McHenry
Thank~you both sincerely, for your service!
I appreciate you.
❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙
Thank you for doing your part. There are so many who want to rip our flag down even today, but even more are still fighting for it. It is the symbol of freedom.
Amen ... that was beautiful .... this is what the children need to see and learn from!!!
Father Thank you for hearing their prayers 🙏 that day!!!
Praise be to our Father!!
This brought tears to my eyes. I still remember singing “The Star Spangled Banner” in school & learning of its origin, it’s sad to think our children,country & nation are being robbed of this beautiful history & meaning. Thank you for this. God Bless America 🇺🇸🎆
Me too, every single morning after the first bell rings , we would have attendance taken and immediately after we stood up , hand over our hearts and recited our Star Spangled banner .
Try watching the 2023 NFL Chris Stapleton performance now. Get the tissue ready.
I have literally watched this being reacted to at least 15 times and it always brings tears to my eyes. I love America, and I will never disrespect the flag.
Ditto GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
I was going to say the same thing. Everyone who has shown this video is touched thru their core with what this flag means to us. We WILL continue to fight against these commies trying to take over our FREE LIVING COUNTRY and turn it into a tyrannical regime! WE THE PEOPLE WILL NEVER EVER LET THAT HAPPEN even if it means we give the ultimate sacrifice as our countrymen did way back in the beginning!
Me also
Same here, Brother!
It's ashamed the hateful can't understand why we love America.
I agree,,since some of these people don't like America,,then leave,,no one is forcing you to stay here,,find something else to worry about,,like go back wherever you came from,,this is my country,,I'm proud to be an American..born and raised here..
We have to teach them
Beautiful song and people that LOVE this country.....what dumbasses could take a knee and not stand proud to that song that flag????
Because she has too many dark secrets, can she be great yes she can. We must change for the better!!!
@@kingjaven13agreed!
Thank you for sharing that!! You, my friend are indeed a patriot!!! God bless you and your family!!!!
Watching this brought tears to my eyes" our flag stands for our country and who died for it"
Yes yes my husband being one! Wemus5 also carry that in us !
I am Australian. I was born in Indonesia. I have never come across a national anthem that moves me like The Star Spangled Banner. I have no explanation for it. It just stirs my heart and puts tears in my eyes.
best thing to yell out during "national anthem, is..? " I got make a BIG DOODIE! "

Me to should be taught to our kids 🤫🇺🇸👍they sing but half 🇺🇸don't know I am glad my family 👪 ❤️ that song 🎵 ❤️ this video 👏👏👏👏👍❤️🇺🇸🙏🙌
As an American it is not the anthem completely it is the sacrifice behind it.
I have lived in America my entire life, 81 years. I learned our National Anthem in the first grade. We discovered what it meant as we grew up. we were taught respect and love for our Country, our Military, and our Anthem. I am so saddened we have forgotten what made America great. I still get filled up when I hear this beautiful homage to those men & women who kept our Stars and Stripes flying against all adversity. Thanx to God. We have forgotten too much. I pray daily for a resurgence of Patriotism in this country.
I'm 60 years old and have never heard this story. EVERY school in America should make EVERY child hear this story!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!
Right I was blessed my area hadn't been affected yt with that woke
This is why the Flag deserves our utmost respect & should always be honored 💙🤍❤💙🤍❤
No matter how many times I hear this, I get tears in my eyes. It breaks my heart that so many people who were blessed to be born in this country don't appreciate what we have.
i hear you.....
I'm Canadian and will never listen to this anthem the same way ever again.... This vid is great and should be shown in every class in America !!!
THANK YOU SIR FOR RECOGNIZING THIS! I APPRECIATE YOU!!!!!❤
During this same war the U.S. invaded Canada.
🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻🇨🇦📜
It is a beautiful piece of music!
@@TheHalifornian The poem was written years before the music. The music is from the song "To Anacreon in Heaven."
Our flag was & is paid for in blood of the patriots! I get emotional everytime i hear this story... my heart burst with pride of the America we love...& cries at the mockery of todays politics both in the government & civilian populations...
Thank you for playing this video. Be blessed patriot...
Nobody died holding up any flag...war of 1812...the great Garrison flag....battle of fort Mchenry....look up these REAL events that this video is about.
Those brave Americans knew what it means to be a free country. They never let the flag touch the ground even though it may cost them their own life.
Made me cry haven't heard this in yrs...Our country has taken Freedom for Granted...Thank God for ALL who knows the TRUTH and still stands to Our Flag and Freedom!!
Those who disrespect our flag have never been handed a folded one. We must stand up to save our country.
Thank you for this video. Everyone, especially younger people, need to learn about this history and why our National Anthem and flag are so important to this country.
Libs think its more important to teach kids that they are all trans instead of things like this. These are the things Libs don't want people knowing about.
That song always makes me cry...it's a beautiful, heart wrenching ,song, I LOVE IT...& cry every time I hear it....fills me with honor & pride for what this beautiful Nation IS SUPPOSED TO BE & STAND FOR.... I STAND WITH GOD ALWAYS, AND..IN GOD I TRUST..
I came to visit the USA to fulfill my dream and met the love of my life the same day i arrived. Went back home and returned two months later to marry my beloved. I became a Citizen soon as the law allowed and the pride and love for America kept growing in my heart and mind. This video brought back more sparks and light to flourish my love for this Land of the Free Under God always!
Throughout my entire life every time I've heard "The Stars Spangled Banner" I get goose bumps and I cry. This story tells me why. Thank you for showing this.
I feel the same with this song as I do walking into a church.. Gets me every time.
Me too!
Bought tears to my eyes especially when I see what's happening today in OUR COUNTRY

And those who mock and scoff have never had to be as courageous because of the patriots that came before. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.
This was the War of 1812, and the name of the fort is actually Fort McHenry, which is now a national shrine. I lived within walking distance of the fort as I grew up in Baltimore, in the 1940s and 50s. We learned of this battle, in Baltimore Harbor, when I was in public school. It makes me feel very proud of my country, and grateful to be an American.
I’m a natural born American, proud of my heritage and God& Country 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Can't help but be a proud American ,it makes me cry everytime my heart swells and I can't catch me breath !!! It breaks my heart that it is now hated by people that live in this very country
Me too Victoria. Many of our fellow citizens don't deserve to be here. Especially people who made fortunes here. Sigh.
We have to STAND FIF WHAT IS RIGHT AND TRUE!!
WE CAN NOT KNEEL TO THESE CRAZY POLITICAL IDEOLOGIES!!
I ugly cry and can't talk everytime I watch this story. I wish everyone knew it. Maybe they'd rethink some things.
@@cohort2796 but say which people you're talking about 👀🤔 you won't but you'll make slick azz comments like the one you just made but we all know what you mean! Gtfoh
Had me bawling!! For the disrespect seen everyday by people in office in OUR COUNTRY!! So sad that they try so hard to divide us up by race, religion, gender and any and All ways!! OUR ANTHEM should be played on repeat in all public places!! jmo
I STOOD UP AND HELD MY HAND TO MY HEART CRYING 💯💯💯💯💯❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥 AND WHY DOESN'T THIS EMOGI'S NOT HAVE THE AMERICAN FLAG BUT DOES HAVE THE LBGQ FLAG??????
Da Read I did cry because every time I hear the Star spangled banner I know what it represents I watched it all the way to the end I hold my left hand up to my heart and pledge allegiance to the flag to the United States of America and to the Republic one nation under God indivisible to liberty and justice for all Amen Love you God bless you
🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤
I’ve been alive for over half a century and have never heard this story. It makes me feel ever more grateful to those that fight for us and this land❤❤
This is why we ALL use to stand proudly with our hands over our hearts & tears in our eyes, we said the pledge of our allegiance & sang the National Anthem!!! Thank you for posting this! God bless you Sir! 🙏🏽
Well said well, said my friend
I cannot adequately express how much I appreciate Adogg's patriotism.
Ditto my fellow American!
Every American should here this! I’m 57 and this is the first time I’ve heard this. These patriots died for us to have a free country!! God bless them.
If people don’t wake up and do something to save our country from the U.S. government that has sold us out for power and greed, it’ll be gone forever with our freedom. Not to do anything after these brave men died to keep our flag raised up, would be in vein and downright sinful!! If you don’t like living here, then get your ass out and go live somewhere else. Yeah, I said it! We the People are supposed to be in charge! Biden, you’re fired! Harris, you’re fired! No more money laundering in Ukraine!
God Bless America!!
Alleluia😊
I get chills whenever I hear the properly sung rendition of the national anthem. When I see people disrespecting the anthem it really bothers me. Especially knowing this story.
When I hear our National Anthem being sung before an event it always brings goosebumps. Now, it'll bring even more and tears as well. Take care of each other America!!
Always
This is why I always Stand for our Flag. It is not the Flag's fault that America has its faults. When people take a knee or turn their backs it disgusts me.
You me both Laurie 😅
I learn this the hard way during Pandemic when Chinese people kneel down in front of officials to ask for food.
Then it hits me, what if Chinese people have guns? I went from anti-gun to fully support 2A.
Yep. When multi million dollar athletes who are at the top of their field because they live in the land of the free and the home of the brave disrespect the flag it makes me sick
@@johnwong5317 Good! I do not understand people that trust the government enough to put all the weapons in their hands, while the People are left with a slingshot. In WWII, the Japanese didn't attack the mainland because "They have a gun behind every blade of grass."
It makes me sick when particular white people condon police excessive violence against and reckless murder of other US citizens without cause.
As a United States citizens, our First Amendment rights allow us protest when liberty and justice for all,
IS NOT THAT AT ALL.
White America has never been good with a Black man leading a nation wide protest.
Makes them nervous.
I wonder why???
That was so beautiful! Makes my heart ♥️ feel so proud to be an American! God bless America! Amen 🙏🙏🙏
X-Navy and in my 60's, I STILL stand and salute when I hear this song.
I will honor to my death those that gave their lives so that we could live free. Memorial Day means more than beer and a day off from work, it means that we will STAND for our freedom in the face of evil tyrants, and we will NEVER GIVE IN!!
Keep learning, your journey has just begun, but we are PROUD that you have opened your eyes!!
Every time I hear the national anthem at the end I feel nothing but pride and I get teared up. God Bless the USA 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
When I started to read your comment, my glasses would blur out. All I could read was " " Every time I heard the National anthem at the end, I feel nothing." I thought, "Oh boy, I'm going to get a can of whoop @$$ out." So I re-read the sentence, and the same thing happened. I thought this person has to be dead inside if they felt nothing after hearing Francis Scott Key greatest work. Then, on the third attempt, I finally was able to read your whole comment with pride. God bless you.
As a black woman i am brought up to believe that the freedom earned that day was only for white ppl, but in the end we are here and free, all of us. Wow, u are never too old to learn something. Thanks bro
JUST SOME INFO One casualty at the fort was William Williams. In a ditch behind the fort, was a man that was born enslaved. As a slave his born name was Frederick Hall he escaped joined the American Army, under a new name called William Williams. His right leg was severed by a British shell that burst near him. So Private William Williams one of the poorest guys of the young Republic, at that time officially not even considered a citizen by the very country he died defending the Fort. So it wasn't just whites defending that flag.
It took us and embarrassingly long time to figure it out but freedom was won for everyone that day. You are correct your here today so that freedom was won for you as well.
Do you know the whole song? Because this is just the 1st verse. Read the 3rd verse and look up who the songwriter Francis Scott Key was. Then make up your mind.
@LavitosExodius no it wasn't. It was 1814. Black people weren't free for nearly another 30-40 years. In fact, black people would've had a better chance at being free if America LOST the war, since the British were known to offer freedom to black people who fought against the colonists. Plus, Britain also officially abolished slavery in 1830 (way before America) and they didn't need a civil war to do it.
@@angelic9889 the last sentence was my point, in 2023 you can be whatever we want . Free!
I agree with the statement we have to start loving our country again! I’ve always been patriotic. I love this country deeply and am ashamed of the folks currently running this country. I want nothing more than to see the USA be great again. In my estimation, only one man can lead this country to greatness again. I pray that President Donald Trump is triumphant to take this nation to greatness once again. Let freedom ring. God bless America!
Thank you for this fantastic video, I’m crying after watching it. It was so powerful!
The USA is the greatest nation on Earth. Let’s not forget it lest it be taken from us forever.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, a very special moment in time for our nation! As is this Memorial Day!
I cried through the whole thing. What a great story and a, beautiful song. 😢
@@debcrowe8341 me too!
the reviewed video is over 90% bullshit and lies. the truth is much better. this video is an insult to our nation's history.
Thanks for that video. 💯 🇺🇸
I am proud to be an AMERICAN. I STAND FOR THE FLAG...AND KNEEL FOR THE CROSS.🛐
💯🙏
Amen 🙏🙏❤️
What American once was, and stood for, bears no resembance to what America is, and what she stands for today. It's understandable to be proud of what she was, but it makes zero sense to be proud of what she is. Those who understand this will stop chanting mindless patriotic drivel and instead, stand for what she once stood for. That will make you an enemy of modern-day America, but it doesn't make you any less patriotic. In contrast, standing for the corruption that has overcome America today, as if you're somehow standing for what she once was -- a defiance against an inhuman king -- is to be ignorant to an embarrassing degree. Those who fail to distinguish between these two ideals are puppets of those in power; those who rightly divide the truth are the true patriots of the ideals that inspired people to stand against an unjust king.
Absolutely
Made me cry
Our flag knows no color other than the blood shed by our patriots. Black,white,brown,red and yellow. God bless you my friend
I never listen to the words will die for country and freedom made me cry! Addog good video. God bless America and the people that love our country
Even singing this as a small child, I knew it meant something important and wonderful. Lord please don't let it be taken down. It stands for our love of God, our freedoms and rights as Americans.💗
Ty
We are Americans and this is our flag.
All we have to do is stop spending money on anything that supports the "agree with me or your a terrible human being" fascist and oppressive ideology. Those who use insults and cancel those who speak the truth are part of a very destructive ideology. The path to hell truly can be paved with good intentions. Life is so complex people can develop fascist and oppressive ideology without even knowing it. To judge someone without knowing their INTENT will bring nothing but pain and suffering to our nation.
America is falling
LEGALISING what is against God...was the biggest mistake
@@glenstanislawski5371 🌹
This is probably the most powerful video you have ever made. Thank you. We, as Americans, owe a huge debt to those who went before us. Many made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure the freedom we all enjoy today. I will always stand next to my Brothers to defend our Country, no matter the cost. May God Bless America.
It's not just Super Bowl, but it's EVERY sporting event. Every Hat is removed and the right hand over our hearts, with 70,000 people singing this song in unison. Never let the flag touch the ground. And they wonder why Americans fly the US and State flags EVERYWHERE!!!!
I have seen this many times and seeing the reactions. I know I am a bit late on this but I just want to say that my dad was a WW2 vet. This brings me to tears from time to time when ever I have watched it and finally seeing how many people are actually learning more and more about what has happened. The history behind the flag finally being seen and told to those who may not know about it. To finally have something in history that everyone should watch, learn and read about. Now people should understand why when this flag is on the ground and being burned does it really upset people and how angry people get. It's almost as if people are being disrespectful and not understanding the story behind it. BUT! This history. This story. Thank you for sharing it with your community. Thank you to those whom continue to show respect for the flag and for those who continue to fight for the freedom and honoring those vets.
I am very proud to be an American. Thank you for doing this video. There’s a lot of unrest in this country right now. Many, many young, uneducated, and disrespectful Americans say some horrible things about this free country they benefit from every day. We know when we lay our heads on our pillow at night we are free and have the brave souls who fight to keep us safe and free! It has been said, “ Freedom ain’t free!”
These disrespectful & dishonorable people should go spend some time in other countries and they would be BEGGING to come back home!
Just recently at MEMORIAL DAY celebration a group of teenagers ATTACKED a group of Marines on a beach while they were celebrating Memorial Day! How disgusting and embarrassing. These people would give their lives for us and that’s how these disgusting, uneducated people responsible for these abominations treat the very ones who protect them and their loved ones.
My children and grandchildren will grow up in the safest, most free country on Earth. I am thankful beyond belief and wouldn’t have it any other way!!
Thank you for doing this video. I can only hope some of the embarrassments to our country will see this and recognize how much of an embarrassment to the USA they are, and hopefully change their ways.
Great job, I love the channel…Subscribed for sure!
This video should be played on every tv station in the USA daiiy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@karenmann918 Should be played in our schools.
Wow. I was in tears. And to think that this flag is offensive to anyone in these United States is downright shameful.
And to think you actually believe this BS. War of 1812...the great Garrison flag......look those up and educate yourself.
Yea. It defies all logic and loyalty that our Country’s flag is offensive, and that people are allegedly “afraid of the American flag.” I think that has been grossly overblown by our Mainstream media, and I do not necessarily believe it. For such a terrible place we are being told it is, people are surely clamoring to get into this country. This country still represents freedom and liberty to many the world over.
My uncles served in the military, my father served, I’ve served, all of us proud to do so. This country has been through a lot, and during all of it, the flag flew. And now, with all the b.s. happening in our country, that flag means more now than it ever did. It may be a little worn around the edges, but I still revere the flag and all it stands for.
Thank everyone of you for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Respect
❤❤Thank you for your service.
Adogg, this was your best message yet. I am reading the comments, and crying too. It makes me almost think we will survive. America The Beautiful. Please don’t ever look away from our flag.🇺🇸
This always brings tears rolling down my face - every time I hear this! Thank you God for all Patriots!
The patriots that died holding that flag up should be enough for all Americans to have absolute respect during the presentation of that song when ever it is played. Amen brother I watched it all with you. Thank you!!
Damn! Story had me in TEARS! WOW! Ill never look at this anthem the same again. They should be teaching this in schools! THIS IS AMERICAN HISTORY! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
They used to teach patriotism,to respect our country,the sacrifices many have made for it. Then came the hippie generation,Liberal college professors, marijuana ,crack and meth, gangsta rap. A pot of hot putrified behavior.Add that to self serving criminal minds ,and here we are
I was taught this story in school, American History class. My history teacher was passionate about history, especially American history.
I pray that my grandchildren will be privileged enough to have a History teacher who cares about the students that much to share this very important story.
@@pamelaseales3395 You can teach them yourself 🤷🏾♀️. Why not?
@@melaninmonroe1833 I agree whole heartedly. My book shelves is full of history books covering many timelines, my kids will not need the internet for their history classes.
Every time i watch this it makes me cry with pride. Thank you...God be with you always....
Thank you for sharing this, Mr Adogg! It brings me to tears how our beautiful country AMERICA is slowly being torn down! Let’s keep fighting for our freedom, Americans! God Bless America! 🇺🇸
My parents' parents came to the United States seeking freedom from religious persecution. My Father fought in WW2. The 'Star Spangled Banner' has always filled me with pride.
Today, I cried while listening to this and then the heart rendering version of the song, hoping America can survive the onslaught of bad!
My Dad was a career Army soldier and he took our family to Fort McHenry when we were kids and lived in Maryland. This is a true beautiful story. I’m also a Army veteran too. I love The USA 🇺🇸 we defeated the British Army that day our flag stood , the British still tried to invade the US years later trying to come through to the upper US through Canada and into one of the Great Lakes. We defeated them again. Thank God!
My dad was in the Navy when he served in WWII. When he died, as is customary, the Navy handed me a properly folded U.S. flag. It means the world to me, and I have it prominently displayed in my home in my dads' honor. ♥️
Thank you for reviewing this video.
Yup😊
This version should be played at every major event. It hits harder than it does when someone just sings it.
I was at a veterans cemetery today and the sea of flags over many many graves was sobering. Thank you to every person who put on a uniform to protect our freedom. And I had all four of my grandchildren with me and even they were quite moved.
I thought that the national cemetery in San Bruno, Calif was a very impactful sight to behold. Then I had the opportunity to visit Arlington, the Vietnam war memorial and other tributes to our fallen heros. They altered my perspective, forever, and I gained a profoundly new appreciation for our history. Heart wrenching!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful reaction! ❤ Ive seen this flag. Shes on display at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC. Yes, shes in tatters, but she still exists to remind us of the sacrifice to free us and keep us free to this day! This happened during batte from War of 1812 when british were trying to take us back over. We hadnt been a free country for that long and british were chapped over us winning our independence during Revolutionary War. They considered us weak and called us "a bunch if farmers with nothing but pitchforks." Well, i guess we had some damn good pitchforks! This is why we never let our flag toych the ground and also why during Olympics, we refuse to tip her down to country hosting the games. That goes back to George Washington's saying about dying on our feet. We bow to NOBODY. We arent trying to be rude, but we stand by our belief. This should be taught in schools. Perhaps if if was, folks wouldnt kneel, or spit, stomp on her or burn her. Our flag isnt about our government. Shes about US as her people. ALL OF US! "WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. " Sound familiar? Again, thank you for your reaction. May God bless you always! ❤❤🎉🎉
Thank you. So beautifully said.
Damn reading that teared my dude up. He said THATS what he's been bitching about for the past three years. Ten or more about the flag.
Well said! Thank you for sharing!

Makes me Cry with LOVE….!!
Thank you for sharing this today as we remember and honour all of those that paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of their country and our freedoms. God bless all those left behind, and those of us who remain will always remember and honour those fallen comrades with humility.
Some give all, some give some and many of them still giving. Thank you for your service.
@@Enigmaticaluna13 thank you for taking the time to reply and your kind sentiments.
That brought tears to my eyes. We are the land of freedom, and the bravery shown on that night proved to the world that we would NEVER give up. That is why it brakes my heart to see those who would kneel before our flag. Our flag is the symbol that we never gave up. We held the line for freedom. Lives were lost that day. Lives continue to this day to be lost to maintain the freedom that so may take for granted. God Bless America. 🇺🇲
Our Flag means so much to me and please keep our Red White and Blue flying high.
God Bless Francis Scott Key for writing 🙏 this beautiful song for All Americans 🇺🇸
This video is why when I stand for are anthem I always remember this and feel some sorrow for the people who fought to keep us from having to be ruled by a monarchy and I also feel thankful that they they fought for us and never gave up so when I hear are anthem I never forget and never will I salute to are veterans because they are the reason why we are living in this free country
