Connor Brewer is fiercely loyal to his college football team. But he is also fiercely loyal to the United States of America.
So when the Millikin University football team decided to protest the national anthem by remaining inside the locker room instead of on the sidelines - Connor was faced with a decision.
Would he join his teammates in their university-approved safe space or would he stand on the sidelines and honor America?
Connor chose to stand alone.
One of my readers sent me a photograph of what transpired on Oct. 15th at the private Illinois university. It was deeply moving.

He’s gone. White dude is an additional no-no. And this is a private university??
Absolutely! Me too.
I fear for your country, your young people have been brainwashed, intimidated and blackmailed and gas-lighted into this self-hating lunacy.
Did the coaches come out?
Connor Brewer is an offensive linemen, of course.
it’s about time we start showing our displeasure to those disrespecting the flag and the country.
it’s also about time to show support for those taking a stand for what’s right, like Connor.
Wow! Milliken is located in conservative blue-collar Decatur, not Detroit. High end private University. What is going on?
University-approved safe space.
OMFG.
Amen.
Some will always remember and know. Some will never forget the truth. Not in 100 years, nor 200. Some are all it takes.
Don’t get me started. I majored in History in
college and firmly believe that an objective study
of American history would produce patriotism in all
but a few confirmed morons. We don’t really study
the subject anymore except when it comes to perceived
mistakes that were made. The failure to study our
past objectively makes it possible for the haters to
brainwash students with disinformation.
It used to be that some of our most fervent patriots
were immigrants. Many understood that this place is
where all of us must make the final stand for freedom.
Today, too many immigrants are here to make only a good
living and partake of the goodies. They don’t give two
dead flies for the effort that others provided to give
us what we have. Of course, the Muslim issue is another
complete story in itself.
