What you really fail to realize, is that a visual gesture does nothing to solve the problem they seem to be demonstrating against. Doing something to actually fix the problem would be productive. Grandstanding/posturing does nothing but widen the divide. Doing it during the anthem sends entirely the wrong message.
Again, drawing attention to the problem they feel needs to be addressed is step 1 in driving change. Should the colonists have just bent over and lived with the unfair taxation King George imposed on them? Should the Confederate leadership have just manned up and accepted that they were going to be given unfair representation in Congress?
