Take off the hat!

Is it really that difficult? Is it really too hard and too much of your energy to take off your hat at a sporting event during the national anthem? I want to understand why people refuse to take off their hats during the time that we are honoring our great country. It really pisses me off. Some people think it's their way of protest... I think that's garbage. Honor the country that has given so much to you.

Recently, a friend told me that he is enlisting in the Air Force. First of all, I would like to take the opportunity to thank him again for what he is doing, and I really respect him. If you encounter someone who is doing this, you should do the same.

Thank you for fighting for me, my family, my friends, and all Americans. Also, tell your brother the same. You guys are great Americans and great people to volunteer to go into the military and fight for us. Good luck, you both will do a great job in the Air Force and the Marines. God Bless.

After talking to him, I thought even more about this topic. I told him that it really pisses me off when people do this. He brought up a good point. Our military fights for their right to not take off their hats during the national anthem. They fight for our freedoms, and this is one of them. The one thing that is great about this country allows people to take advantage of it, and take everything that they have for granted. It is sad, but it is true.

I guess that at least they aren't sending hate mail and death threats to our military, like that moron in Syracuse, who I will not mention because I do not want him getting any more publicity. This guy is a loser who should get the hell out of the USA, but unfortunately, we cannot do that.

That's all I have to say for now, so I will end my rant there.
