Our Next Greatest Generation! – Security Stifles National Anthem at Lincoln Memorial?
July 1st, 2010
June 25, 2010 on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Students attending Young America’s Foundation’s High School Leadership Conference were shocked when they were asked by security to stop singing the National Anthem on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Seriously?
Sean Balcomb, a Young America’s Foundation participant at the event said, “I didn’t know there was a volume limit for our National Anthem at a national monument, especially on such an important day in our great nation’s history.”
The song was offered as a tribute to veterans on the anniversary of the start of hostilities in the Korean War.
What do you do when your freedom is curtailed? Do what these proud patriots did when told to stop singing the Star Spangled Banner! Sing it again, LOUDER!
My hat is off to these patriots and future leaders! You gave me a glimmer of hope today!

After having recently been to the Lincoln Memorial for the first time… I am surprised at the signsa that declare to everyone to repsect the place and be quiet. Yet nothing is done about kids congregating loudly, cell phones and other noises.
Incredibly, there was even an incident where a woman was asked not to pray on the steps of the Supreme Court… http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pag….
I am astounded at the severity and swiftness, but alas, knew this, and worse, is coming.
