  Let's get to a question for American mama. Do your mama, why did
• 0:03
  the capitol police stop elementary school kids from singing the Star Spangled banner in the
• 0:07
  Capitol? Well, let's ask our American mama, mama, and joining us
• 0:22
  now our American mama, Terry Netterville. This is a story. There's a
• 0:27
  children's choir came up at Washington, d C. And they're from Rushing Brook,
• 0:31
  South Carolina, and the kids have been they got special permission to sing
• 0:35
  in the national cop You ever been the Capitol? No? No, Can
• 0:38
  you imagine how privileged they felt, how cool it was, right, you're
• 0:41
  gonna get to sing our national anthem in our nation's capital. And here's how
• 0:46
  it wents. So here the kids lining up and then they're cut off and
• 1:00
  the director gives them the stop singing signed because a member of Capitol Police walked
• 1:03
  up to the director and said, y'all have to stop. This is a
• 1:07
  demonstration. We don't allow demonstrations in the Capitol. So they're in the Capitol
• 1:11
  building in the United States and and they're afraid these kids, by singing the
• 1:15
  national anthem are going to offend people who are there at the State Capitol,
• 1:21
  like, what the freak is going on? I don't understand. This feels
• 1:26
  like communism, It feels like hatred for our country. It feels like we're
• 1:30
  under some sort of weird to how did you say? Yes? It just
• 1:36
  feels so weird. Now Capitol Police has come out after this event because it
• 1:40
  went viral on Twitter. You know, Capital police shutting down children singing what
• 1:45
  I guess that was the second or third verse of the national anthem, and
• 1:49
  they're like, no, you can't do this anymore. And people are like,
• 1:51
  wait, wait, this seems a very un American. The Capitol Police
• 1:53
  have come out and said, oh, it was just a miscommunication. Yeah,
• 1:57
  that's what they're saying. They're having to walk it back because there are
• 1:59
  some backlash. I think now Americans have decided, no, we're not going
• 2:02
  to be quiet anymore. We've been quiet for so long, for so many
• 2:06
  years. We've kind of gone with it because we're so afraid of everything.
• 2:08
  But my sister said, we weren't. My sister thread you know, we
• 2:10
  were talking about this last night and Lindsay said, why did the director quit?
• 2:15
  He should have just put his hand up and said it'll give me two
• 2:19
  seconds and let him finish up. And I wrote back, and I said,
• 2:22
  because if he did not and there was some kind of scuffle or something
• 2:25
  that made it biggery, I think he was kind of being in that protective
• 2:28
  motive of the kids, like, Okay, I'm going to follow the rules
• 2:30
  this officer, because we all feel like if you're an officer of the law,
• 2:34
  especially if you're at the state capital, that we need to mind you,
• 2:37
  We need to do what you say, and we cannot rebel against that
• 2:38
  in that moment. There's a time later on to come back and complain and
• 2:43
  to correct the situation, but in the moment, you do have to follow
• 2:46
  what law enforcement says. Yeah, and here's another thing some people are inquiring
• 2:50
  about. Would they have come in and stopped this thing, and had this
• 2:53
  been the Harlem Children's choir if these were black children, because these were all
• 2:58
  white children from Carolina, and the question was posed, would they have stopped
• 3:05
  the black children or would that have been would have started this firestorm of racism?
• 3:09
  You know what? Right, there seems to be some sort of weird
• 3:13
  feeling out there that maybe they would have continued on, they would have allowed
• 3:16
  that, and there's no real way to know but it sure feels that way,
• 3:21
  doesn't it. It does. It feels backwards, and it feels like
• 3:23
  we're at we're at an impass here in America where we have been told that
• 3:30
  there's going to be two anthems. We have been told that we cannot say
• 3:32
  marry Christmas. We have been told that we as Christians that you know,
• 3:36
  we've been mocked for that. You know, the Sisters of uh whatever.
• 3:42
  Yeah, that's the trans group that's been invited by the Los Angeles Dodgers to
• 3:47
  come in. The Los Angeles Dodgers are going to give this group a medal
• 3:52
  uh an award for all of their great works at mocking Catholics. Yeah,
• 3:55
  there's actually some brave Dodgers who are speaking out against that, which is interesting,
• 4:00
  and what they're speaking out against is exactly what I'm talking about. You
• 4:03
  can mock us, you can make fun of us, you can cancel us.
• 4:06
  You can if we instead of if we're protesting something, instead of having
• 4:13
  the freedom to do so, they challenge us. They said they will arrest
• 4:15
  us. You know, we see what they've done to us for so many
• 4:17
  years that now I promise you people on all sides, all colors, all
• 4:24
  affiliations are saying no more. This is our country. You are ruining it.
• 4:29
  And this is one example of how it just feels like under Biden regime
• 4:33
  that there are stopping something that's patriotic and now you see a backlash, and
• 4:38
  what do they do? They walk it back. Wait, no, there
• 4:40
  was a misunderstanding. No, no, clearly you did not let these children
• 4:45
  finish our national anthem. You had an agenda. This is one of those
• 4:48
  times that we're gonna we're gonna fight back. And I love it because I
• 4:54
  wondered when this time would come. Actually, I wondered what point would we
• 4:57
  get to, how low would we have to go or or feel in order
• 5:00
  to start rising up ourselves and saying no more. Not only are we going
• 5:04
  to sing, but I hope what happens. I hope children's choirs from all
• 5:09
  over come to sing the national anthem in that same room to prove a point.
• 5:15
  I hope they come from Harlem. I hope they come again from South
• 5:16
  Carolina, Texas, Louisiana, Wisconsin. I hope they come. I hope
• 5:20
  they make a field trip to prove a point, like if you're serious,
• 5:25
  if you really did not mean, if there's miscommunication. You didn't mean for
• 5:29
  them to stop singing. I hope that the way that we do this is
• 5:31
  we have all of these children's choirs make a special trip to come sing the
• 5:36
  anthem in front of the whole world. Even like to ask our American Mama
