The Scene Where Archie Bunker Defends The National Anthem Is Going Viral 50 Years Later

Archie Bunker most certainly was a memorable television character. For years, he appeared as a star of “All in the Family” and struck a chord with millions of Americans who felt they could relate to Bunker’s views on being an American.The show described Bunker as a hard-working American man who previously served in the armed forces, which explains why he was unwilling to stand by and let another man belittle the Star-Spangled Banner and be disrespectful toward it and all it stood for.
Bunker loved being patriotic and never worried about his political incorrectness. Although some of his comments have not aged well considering the “woke” revolution overtaking America these days, Bunker’s stance in favor of the national anthem continues to speak to millions of Americans who continue to put their pride in America before all else.During this clip, Bunker was watching television with his son-in-law, Meathead. While the national anthem was being played ahead of a sports event, Meathead complained about the anthem and said that it was not a very good song because it glorified the horrors of war.
Although modern-day critics of the national anthem claim it is racist against Black, brown, and indigenous people of color, Meathead was taking a stance against the anthem because it was written during the War of 1812 between the fledgling United States of America and Great Britain.
While Meathead shared his criticism of the anthem, Archie Bunker quickly came to its defense.
“That is one terrible song,” Meathead complains to his father-in-law. Bunker cannot believe his ears and lets his son-in-law know as much. He turns his gaze to Meathead with his eyes popping out of his head in shock at what he just heard come out of his son-in-law’s mouth.Don’t start up nothing with me, Meathead. I’m watching the game. That’s a beautiful song, and shut your face.” Bunker’s blunt attack gets Meathead riled up. He shifts in his chair and prepares to counter Bunker’s statement with one of his own invention.
“Huh? The song glorifies war, and even as a song, it stinks. Nobody can remember the words.”
“You’re going to ruin this game for me?” Bunker lashed back.

“Can you remember the words?”
“Certainly I can!” Bunker shouts.
Meathead then challenges the patriotic Archie Bunker to sing the first few lines of the national anthem. What happens next will have you rolling on the floor with laughter. Meathead doubles down and refuses to put the game back on until Bunker recites the words of the anthem. Although he recites his lines with gusto, Meathead is the one who gets the pleasure of telling Bunker he is “wrong!” Dozens of people commented on this delightfully funny clip from All in the Family on the YouTube video included below.
“Talk about picking battles. Mike just couldn’t shut up and let Archie enjoy his football game, including the national anthem. Go, Archie!”

“How Come She Still Has Her Hair”, Princess Catherine’s First Outing Shocks People Amid Chemo Treatment

Princess Catherine of Wales wowed everyone with her first public appearance in months. People were blown away by her hair, especially since she’s been dealing with chemotherapy and hair loss, and couldn’t stop talking about it.

The Princess of Wales has had an incredibly challenging year, returning to the public eye four months after starting chemotherapy. Kate was diagnosed with cancer and has been recovering at home in Windsor with the support of her husband, Prince William, and the Middleton family.

The mother of three asked for time, space, and privacy for her family when she announced that she was being treated for an undisclosed form of cancer.

She made a stunning appearance at Trooping the Colour for King Charles III’s birthday parade in London, turning heads with her gorgeous dress and hair. This was Catherine’s first public event since her diagnosis, and she wowed everyone in a white dress with black trim and ribbon details on the neckline.

Catherine finished her upcycled outfit with a white hat, pearl studs, and the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch, honoring her role. Her hair was styled in a low bun with intricate detailing, and it was this detail that people mostly focused on.

Many questioned her hair, given that she had undergone chemotherapy. Some even doubted it was the Princess of Wales. “That’s not her,” someone commented in disbelief, while another stated, “That’s not Kate.”

One user expressed genuine curiosity, saying, “Want to know how she’s keeping her hair through chemotherapy… This is a serious question. I am not making a dig or anything like that…”

“You can have chemotherapy and not lose your hair?”, someone else questioned, or others commented with things like: “Was William with her? And if she’s having chemo how come she still has her hair?”.

Comments continued, and a user commented underneath a video displaying the princess with her daughter Charlotte: “She doesn’t look herself however I find it a bit weird that after 6 months of chemo she still looks good. I mean bless her if this is the case, but I still believe that something else is up.”

Amidst questions and curiosity, people couldn’t help but feel joy seeing Kate return to the public eye looking as stunning as ever. Most comments highlighted this, complimenting the Princess of Wales on her appearance.

“Such beauty, grace, and elegance while the whole world is watching all while facing the toughest time of life.. a true inspiration what a Princess…”, someone wrote. “She looks great considering what she’s going through. Praying she gets through the day as best as she can.”

Another user recognized Kate’s elegance and class, writing: “Looking beautiful, as usual! A true princess: elegant, classy & strong!”

People have been buzzing about Princess Catherine’s appearance on another occasion.
