Have you ever read all four verses of "The Star Spangled Banner"? This video includes only the first and the last verses. The last verse is quite an eye-opener! It's amazing to realize how far we, as a nation, have fallen since these words were penned and given the honor of being our national anthem.
I find it quite "telling" that we seldom hear this verse used anymore! How many Americans even know it exist?. Would it be allowed in our schools today, or would it be censored?

Very interesting. Our Canadian anthem has several such verses too.
At this point it would more than likely be cencored.Its mighty sad how bad things have become.Did you notice how the government is telling the Veterans they have to run their prayers and things they say at loved ones funerals by the governments approval?
