I truly dislike that people have made this about veterans. It’s about the United States of America and ALL it stood for and given it’s citizens.

I truly dislike that people have made this about veterans. Its about the United States of America and ALL it stood for and given its citizens. True, but at least it's a handhold on the issue. Discursive prose doesn't grab attention like a catchy slogan does. And it serves to define the sides in a way that transmits well through mass media.
The leftists have been doing this for ages ("My body, my choice!"), and their own weapons are now being turned back on them.
Including music, now!

The appeal would be greater if the meme didn’t limit it to veterans. How about all the millions of people that have worked for what the U.S. stands for? Sorry, it doesn’t have the wings to fly if it’s just for veterans.

THANK YOU! I have said the same thing. The soldiers are just a portion of it. Respect for the flag and anthem have to do with the overall essence, history, and totality of what America is. If people don’t “get” that, they need to find another homeland.

Sorry, it doesnt have the wings to fly if its just for veterans. I'm just saying that it's an effective hook. Not that it exhausts the issue.
And, it appears to be flying well enough.

“... I truly dislike that people have made this about veterans...”
I definitely see your point. However, when I think about the flag/and anthem... I always think of coffins coming “home” with flags draped over them. I think the knee thing started over BLM/anti police sentiment. However, it was the NFL that related anti police and the flag/anthem. Thus, people now changing the point that it is anti-vet is simply following how they see the flag. Yes... it really is about the US and ALL it stood for and given it’s citizens but at the price of lives and blood (ie. veterans).
To: momtothree
...but at the price of lives and blood (ie. veterans).Right, because no one but veterans have died in the building of America. See, you've fallen into the narrow scope of what it means to have sacrificed for the U.S. Millions have died at home while building this great country. Millions have sacrificed to build it to the greatest country in the history of the world. Limiting the talk to veterans means the sentiment doesn't reach those people's families and heritage.

Oddly enough, I think the main result of the temper tantrums by the idiotic racists in the NFL playahs' union has been to show how lousy their overall behavior is most of the time, and how there are only a handful of teams that play well at all. Since most NFL teams are fiilled with over-the-hill or never-was "talent", why should their pay be so high? Besides the need to prohibit and eliminate all sports scholarships (regardless of sport or gender, or sexual oriientation, no more nine pins scholarships IOW), and the obvious need to prohibit government (taxpayer) financing of arena construction, it's time to address these overpaid athletes.

Love of our flag, respect for vets and National Anthen is part of the whole... it’s the part these NFL jerks are disrespecting... Pass the song around and boycott NFL football...
