Which is the racist line?

God bless America, land that I love

Stand beside her and guide her

Through the night with the light from above

From the mountains to the prairies

To the oceans white with foam

God bless America, my home sweet home

God bless America, land that I love

Stand beside her and guide her

Through the night with the light from above

From the mountains to the prairies

To the oceans white with foam

God bless America, my home sweet home

From the mountains to the prairies

To the oceans white with foam

God bless America, my home sweet home

God bless America, my home sweet home

Hello A:

I have no idea.. I PURPOSELY didn't listen to it before I asked my question..

I don't think people are making it up, though.. You do?

Yeah. I do. I just read the lyrics and posted them. They aren't racist. Someone made that up.

It was invisible unsaid racism....

It's so deep down that you need a subatomic partical microscope to see it...

I've heard this argument from the left before. Just sayin...

I'm a "lefty" and I say NO. I believe the statement that "leftys say yes" is wrong, maybe some FAR leftys do, but I and the majority of U.S. do not, I would be willing to bet.

I kneel for it. It's a protest. Hasn't caught on yet. Maybe if I had the privilege of a national spotlight every Sunday night .

Hello A:

Dude! Then next time I'm at a game, and that racist song comes on, I'm gonna kneel too. You're on to something BIG!

I kneel like Tim Tebow. That's what you meant right?

Haha seriously, what makes you think it is a racist song?

I'd be curious to know how it's racist. I just went and looked up the lyrics and I'm not seeing any reasonable reason why they should be so if someone claims it is I'd like to know why.
