Trolling & The Star Spangled Banner
Asserting that taking a knee at a football game is disrespectful of Veterans is trolling. It’s the assertion of a red herring into an important discussion. It’s meant to distract from, not participate in, the conversation.
Veterans don’t fight for the flag, or a song, or the pledge of allegiance. Veterans fight for people. For citizens. For equal protection under the law. To conclude otherwise is to suggest the flag is more important than the rights & people it represents.
We don’t serve the flag; the flag serves us.
