When will people understand that kneeling during the national anthem or disrespecting the flag, however appalling you may find it, is a sign of a healthy democracy?
Members of the military don’t fight and sacrifice so people have to give up or boycott what they love. They do it so people have the freedom to express themselves and protest however they see fit. So basically when you boycott the NFL, you’re telling the military they’ve wasted their time maintaining the peace so you have the freedom to enjoy the things you love and that protecting our way of life, such as freedom of speech, is a useless endeavor but thanks for trying.
The second you tell an NFL football player he can’t, or shouldn’t, kneel in protest during the national anthem, is the second you dishonor all those that have fought for and died so that we as Americans can have those very rights.
