"When you think about why Francis Scott Key wrote the 'Star Spangled Banner' which became our national anthem, it's because soldiers were inside Fort McHenry, while the British were bombing Fort McHenry trying to take down the American Flag. I don't see how anyone could say that they're on the knee or sitting down during the playing of the national anthem, that's disrespectful to the memory and legacy of those soldiers."— Allen West | Fox Business
