Personally as a Soldier and a Citizen I support their right to protest the National Anthem on 9/11, it's the same right I have to tell them to get fucked and boycott everything they are about, I am glad this douche bag lost his sponsor.

i dont. any other day of the year is fine. if you as a citizen are so angry with the country that you cant show a modicum of respect for 2 minutes for the innocent people that died that day, you should leave the country. seriously there are plenty of other places you can live where you wont have to be burdened by showing a little modesty in the face of such killings.

It just highlights the hippocracy of their position, I'm a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan and only extended because of 9/11, I've been in the military almost as long as these self entitled brats have been on earth, it infuriates me personally that they have so little appreciation for the opportunities given to them, and I personally think they are kneeling for a cause based on lies. Should they be killed for it, nah, I'm bigger than that, however they should definitely be shunned and the 1st ammendment swings both ways. Don't think I wouldn't call somebody a shitbag disrespecting the flag in front of me, also don't put me above breaking the law, because legally I might think you have the right however as a private citizen I may likely kick the shit out of you if I am in a position to do so.

I agree 100%
Let the fucktards disrespect the country that affords them the right to do so. I also have the right to call them disrespectful assholes and boycott everything they are affiliated with.

This is the right response, as the old saying goes, I don't support what you say but will defend your right to say it. In the same way, I'll exercise my right to speak against you and boycott anything you are involved in.
Patriotism is such an easy thing to understand but so many people get it wrong even in this thread: support the constitution.
It's not about supporting a government nor a party, or an anthem nor a flag but the constitution. Best way to handle these trolls is to ignore them to be honest, the protest only works when people get all upset and pay attention.

Well said.
