Most veterans don't give a stuff if you sit down. Mainly because they know they fought for your freedom to sit down.
That'd be true if the reason were that you couldn't physically stand or you were too tired to or you felt you could honor America sitting down as well as you could standing up.
That's not what he's doing here though. What he's doing is he's sitting down, drawing attention away from everyone and everything else onto himself, to say that America, the nation that these veterans fought and died for, isn't great at all because blacks are being
gunned down in the streets by
tribal cops
for no reason, even though there's no truth to that statement whatsoever.
That, or he's secretly trying to draw attention to himself in order to extend his career as a stuff player. There is such a thing as
abusing freedoms, you know.
