I served in the military to protect your country's liberty and freedom. That includes those that kneel or stand during the National Anthem.
Respect for All the people that have fought and died and are fighting rite now for your rite to be free to do as you wish. RESPECT

God bless us all and the USA, land of the free. Difference of oppinion and the ability to express it is what makes this country great. It brings ideas to the fore front and helps unify our country. Although some go kicking and screaming. I for one do not care for kneeling for our National Anthem, I respect the flag and what others have so eloquently said it stands for. I will leave you with this thought. I prefer to agree to disagree, but I try to understand the other point of view.

There is NO connection between respect for the flag and respect for combat veterans except in your mind.

I kneel in church at an alter to show my surrender, reverence, and to give honor to the King of Kings.
I'm okay with that, even though I don't share your beliefs. Are you okay with me identifying both your statements as beliefs rather than absolute truths?

A person's beliefs can be held as absolute truth: to the person who believes them!

Not according to commonly accepted definition of absolute truth

I prefer something a bit more of this nature:
"a fact or belief that is accepted as true."

Protests are usually a public demonstration of disapproval. You probably should stick to your interpretations of the koran, they usually make a little more sense.
Thank you asp125.

Alternate facts are getting a lot of play nowadays.

One Man's fact is often another Man's pile of bull****. You just have to learn to accept what you can; and ignore the rest.

I think you are confusing facts with opinion and beliefs. There's a lot of that been happening lately.
The above is an opinion. No verifiable facts contained therein.

I don't see anything wrong with the occasions when a bunch of Americans are gathered to acknowledge their American-ness!
