the default is neither. Both respect and disrespect are earned.

"This country" hasn't done anything. It is an inanimate object.

People have done things. Some of those things deserve respect, others don't.

why do the flag and anthem deserve respect? - pickle MU - 8/24 08:22:20
     For that matter, why do b$tches & ho s deserve respect? - Tigerfish MU - 8/24 09:52:34
     Because they are symbols that represent people - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/24 09:50:58
          Do you respect the flag of the Third Reich? - pickle MU - 8/24 09:58:13
               You did not read my post very carefully - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/24 13:32:17
                    Believe me, I didn't miss anything - pickle MU - 8/24 13:35:17
     I went to the Royals game last night, and for whatever - ummmm MU - 8/24 09:40:43
          Who knows - Sal KC - 8/24 10:33:43
               Actually, it is not easy to ignore. It was the loudest - ummmm MU - 8/24 10:38:31
                    You couldn't have gone to the concession stand - Sal KC - 8/24 10:51:54
          Yeah, that's odd. I stay in my seat - pickle MU - 8/24 09:53:20
          No - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/24 09:48:19
               That's not the issue. Obviously, the Royals can do whatever - ummmm MU - 8/24 09:53:09
                    Disgusting - pickle MU - 8/24 10:03:05
                    And what is wrong with that? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/24 09:55:20
                         No, I am not trying to force companies to do anything. - ummmm MU - 8/24 09:57:07
     Why would an entertainer who depends on money from fans... - Salty Dog MU - 8/24 09:35:41
          You said he's getting what he deserves. Deserves for what? - pickle MU - 8/24 09:38:47
               It's clearly not offensive to you - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 8/24 09:53:07
                    No flies on you. Hence the question in my OP - pickle MU - 8/24 09:54:09

               Offending fans... - Salty Dog MU - 8/24 09:46:20
                    I wasn't offended (nm) - pickle MU - 8/24 09:52:28
     Why do you have such an issue - Sal KC - 8/24 09:00:59
          I'm simply asking a question - pickle MU - 8/24 09:23:32
               It's just a matter of opinion - Sal KC - 8/24 09:25:09
                    The flag and anthem are not people, Sal - pickle MU - 8/24 09:27:19
                         Whether it's something or someone - Sal KC - 8/24 09:35:56
                              Good thing then - pickle MU - 8/24 09:37:29
     Conversely, why don't they? - Mo Texan MU - 8/24 08:49:40
          There's no debate...An entertainer offends fans at their own - Salty Dog MU - 8/24 09:36:56
          They are tools of oppression and subjugation - pickle MU - 8/24 09:04:18
               Should an employee get drunk and drive the company car? - Salty Dog MU - 8/24 09:40:05
                    Lol what? (nm) - pickle MU - 8/24 09:58:49
               Good questions. I don't respect what that flag stood for. As - Mo Texan MU - 8/24 09:23:33

                    respect and disrespect are not the only two options - MizzouAstro MU - 8/24 09:18:19
                         That's stupid. Organizations and nations are made up of - hokie VT - 8/24 09:27:23
                              yes, each group of people should be evaluated - MizzouAstro MU - 8/24 13:03:34

          so odd (nm) - 90Tiger MU - 8/24 08:52:09

               cops are not people? - Silas MU - 8/24 08:43:54
