Alabama prep football announcer: You should be shot for not standing for national anthem

Quote:

The announcer of the Friday night football game at McKenzie High School in Alabama's Butler County had something to say to those who may choose not to stand for the national anthem. "If you don't want to stand for the national anthem, you can line up over there by the fence and let our military personnel take a few shots at you since they're taking shots for you," the announcer said at the game versus Houston County High School, according to Facebook poster Denise Crowley-Whitfield. Crowley-Whitfield said the crowd went "crazy cheering" following the speech.

Oh, by the way, he's also a church pastor:

Quote:

The announcer was identified as Pastor Allen Joyner, of Sweet Home Baptist Church in McKenzie, according to Joyner's relatives and friends, who also posted to Facebook and praised the statement.

And of course the church supports his statement, but when confronted, lies and runs away:

Quote:

Sweet Home Baptist Church supported the pastor's comments, saying they were "taken out of context and misquoted" in a post to its Facebook page on Saturday. The post was up for about an hour before the Facebook page was deleted.
