< Court martial, dishonorable discharge.
Agreed. One things soldiers forget is that once they’re in the military they are owned by the military. The same constitutional protections they had living as a citizen dont apply now that they are in the military. They are soldiers and part of a military unit whose very duty is to protect the U.S. from both enemies both foreign and domestic. Pledging allegiance is but just one of their easiest duties. Taking a knee is just disrespectful during the national anthem. None of it has to do with taking a stand in these situaion. They bring dishonor to themselves and demoralize their units with such behavior. A court martial with a dishonorable discharge is in order.
Yes, the military does own you. Go out and get a bad sunburn and see what happens.
