I look at your comment with mixed emotions. I was one of the many that followed that flag into the battles that gives you the right to speak your piece. I followed the 38 million Americans that gave their lives in WW 1 and the 85 million that we lost in WW 2. They were lost because they not only fought for their families, but yours and everyone else’s so we could be the closest thing to perfection and the most desired country in the history of the world to live in.
So the next time you look up at the flag on the pole, remember the price many paid to be here. And the cost of what it took to get here. I may not change your opinion with mine. But I gave it to you to maybe change your education. Just a piece of cloth? If you look close you’ll see the stains from the brave on it.
So as you pass it, lower your eyes. You don’t deserve it. You haven’t earned it yet.

Whoa whoa whoa, I put it in quotes because that’s what Michelle Obama said, I had assumed everyone here knew that.
I'm surprised some wisecracking sports announcer hasn't observed these players taking a knee and said "Hey, look at 'em Tebowing!". Bet that would get them on their feet.
Nig ball player is an American enemy
..........this one photo explains better than any words why millions of Americans are reducing and/or eliminating the NFL from their life.
That Goodell doesn’t “get it”, or does “get it” and is intentionally enabling the anthem insultors, just amazes me. I hope they keep it up until the pay checks start getting cut!
Maybe they all with “get” that!
Aeons ago, Major League Baseball lost me with a particularly odious players' strike., When the strike was over, for some odd reason I never came back. Must have found something else to do.
NFL has lost me over the flag disrespect. I probably won't come back. I'll probably just spend more time at the range.
I bought a Honda Goldwing and go riding on back Texas Roads.
Exactly, they are supporting him with their silence ergo there’s no difference between them and him.
Apologize. I had hoped when I entered the same quote and specified to whom it was intended to go to right behind it, you might have seen my mistake. But it was my mistake, sorry.
