Children's choir is stopped from singing the National Anthem INSIDE the Capitol

after an officer deemed it a 'demonstration' - even though the Speaker's office had approved it
quote:

A children's choir was told to stop singing the National Anthem by Capitol Police because it was deemed a 'demonstration,' but police insist it was a 'miscommunication.'

The Rushingbrook Children's Choir - based in South Carolina - was singing inside the US Capitol on May 26 when a female Capitol Police officer directed a congressional staffer to stop the show, Choir Director David Rasbach told the Daily Signal.
quote:

Rasbach said the officer called the performance a 'demonstration' and said some were offended by the performance - although, he doubts that because 'her time was consumed with us' to hear what others were saying.
quote:

After his group stopped singing, Rasbach said he approached the officer to ask her: 'How do you think this is going to affect these children? Their first time visiting their Capitol and then they have this disappointment.'

She reportedly told them they 'sounded beautiful' but to go outside if they wanted to continue.
I wonder who said they were 'offended.'

Here's video of the incident. I'd love to identify the 'concerned citizens' who stood there and had a frantic pow wow about the choir before sending the fat piece of shite over to stop it.

Should’ve been singing more inclusive songs like WAP or 1st of the month

Sad how a majority of people are proud of and love this country while a small minority of 10-20%, that simply hate the US, are allowed to dictate and control our lives.
And the situation worsens with every passing day too.
Why do we allow this to continue?

Good thing a certain capitol police officer wasn't on duty.
