Whether you think everyone should stand of not is totally your opinion, but are you willing to force that belief on someone? Isn't there some irony in that?

Why not salute the constitution, bill of rights, the names of past American heros, and president? Are they less deserving than a piece of fabric that represents our land? Just wondering.
