You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Can one also presume then, that you are also strongly against...using our flag for things like bikini's/other clothing, headbands, rifle slings, etc.?

And how about those who aren't trying to protest injustices, but stay in their easy chair and eat pretzels and drink beer...when the anthem plays on television?

Are those things OK?

Assuming you are consistent, don't you think those other folks that criticize taking a knee to protest injustices/inequality in our country, but have no problem with the other things I've mentioned...are being total hypocrites?
