That is not a flag. It is a poncho with a flag scheme.
Did you know when you see a chick wearing a Stars and Stripes bikini, those are fabrics made to resemble the flag, not actual flags cut into triangles?

Here is the thing, you keep stating you never go to things where the anthem is played. Then you say you would likely stand. You give no reason why you would not. Where is the witch hunt here?
Would you think less of me if I did something that was inappropriate or disrespectful? I assume you would. That is not a witch hunt.
you're making false claims about me and judging me because of your bias'. witch hunt.
How can I make a false claim about something you and I both agree that you do not do?
you make the false claim that i am anti-american because i have not been to a game to stand for the anthem. and further insinuated that i don't want to live in america, and that i feel entitled to something that america doesn't provide.
why is this bothering you so much?
Well yeah, clearly you should split at the molecular level and attend every single event in the US simultaneously that plays the anthem. There is a little flea market near me that plays the anthem to begin their weekends. You better fucking be there!

in your above post, you said "How can I make a false claim about something you and I both agree that you do not do?" so, if not being at a game to stand during the anthem, then what was the thing that you and i both agree that i do not do?

Did you read it? It literally says that is why the fine folks of the VFW we're pissed. It was an actual American flag with a slit cut into it. He then threw it in the crowd. That's desecration of the flag. Cool if you're fine with it. Just don't be a hipocrite, lol.

You have stated you do not got to events and protest the anthem. Are you looking to find something to be offended about? How can I condemn something you do not do?

Me: it is wrong to boil babies
You: I do not boil babies
Me: cool, because that would be wrong
You: why do you judge me?!
okay. we're on the same page there. i haven't been to a game, but you've still called me anti american. and....

what is that if not making false claims about me based on your bias'?

There is a vfw in every town. I thank them for their service all the time.
They objected to the poncho thinking it was a flag. It is obviously made to resemble a flag. It was not a flag. You might be shocked to learn that a loosely run outfit with millions of members in thousands of chapters can have varying opinions.
I can draw or make a representation of a flag. No matter how much it resembles a flag, it is not a flag. I can discard it with the same reverence as an old soup can, because it is not a flag. I have a blanket that has flag imagery, it is not a flag. I do not have to go through a process to dispose of it, nor is it disrespectful for it to touch the ground, because it is not a flag.

I see a question. I do not see me calling you anti-American.
I told you certain actions that are anti-American. You said you protested the pledge but did not know why because you were young. So there you go. You did anti-American acts at one point. You cannot recall why. Not sure if you regret it or not. We both agreed that people do things they regret. Now you seem to want to nail yourself to the cross.

Everything I have read is he made the flag into a poncho. He cut a slit into it. Thanks for the lesson about VFWs, as they are a huge client of mine and I know a shit ton of them with friends and family being members. Good to know.
My point is, if Kid Rock, was running Dem, you'd have a problem with it. Even if it was just an actual poncho, and not him cutting a slit into an American flag.
It's funny because I originally saw the Kid Rock thing on a conservative veteran message board and they were shitting Brick's about it, lmao. It was when Kid was on the cusp of going full Repubtard.

you asked why i feel a certain way. if you meant to ask if i feel that way, then fair enough. just the way you actually expressed it felt witch hunty to me. apologies if that was a misunderstanding.
as for the other thing, i don't feel like i'm nailing myself to the cross. i don't hold the same view of simply choosing not to stand as you do.
1% of people think about social injustice and 99% think about the value of flags and what constitutes patriotism. Of course my statement was hyperbole but you see why it was a terrible plan from the start.

I don't think that was Colin's intent or motivation when he started this.
