An easily triggered Patriots response to all the ongoing "Anarcho-Capitalists" ignorance. That's right there are some on here.

Ignorance can be fixed, stupidity is another story.

This response was "triggered" by this post https://steemit.com/liberty/@dullhawk/nationalists-flags-and-leftist-commies here on Steemit.

This man appears to take the position that he is holier than thou and if you don't like his ideology you are a State-ist. He claims that kneeling is not a protest. He is wrapped around the spokes about language, not action. It is the action, not the naming of it that offends and elicits a vitriolic response. He calls the Anthem a worship or ritual and is completely disconnected from why that thinking is a problem. Enough about him in particular. (I posted the video at the bottom of this post.)

The real question is...What have you given up for THAT flag? My Family has bled, one is disabled and served seven plus years and another (enlisted in March 2001 and is still active) has lost many partners lives serving five tours between 2002 and 2010 alone. SO maybe the fact is that your flag is not representative of a struggle. You can protest or worship it any way you want. If you disrespect The flag of These United States by taking a knee in front of the wrong person, you will soon understand that YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND what flags mean to others. Some people will be offended, others are going to beat your ass. You should realize they are usually people who enjoy fighting OBVIOUSLY, so I hope you know what you are doing.

It seems that a few STEEMIANS seem to think the US flag is made by President Trump, and they appear to only have a problem with it because of him. I can respect the Anarcho-Capitalist mentality, if that is a persons drive. However, when Berwick talks shit about OUR flag, fuck him. He may have struggles, but he does not know the US at all. He has a rich man's view.

So what? Why am I writing? The issue for me is the fact you are not realizing you are challenging Patriots. Men and Women are fighting and dying for what the Flag represented, and REPRESENTS and can REPRESENT. If they want to religiously worship it, what do I care. I am not a believer in any organized religion per se. Is the Government too big, YES, too costly, YES, over reaching, over funded, in too many areas, YES YES YES. Should we fight among ourselves about kneeling or standing, NO. I personally believe we should have a tiny honey badger of an over-prepared (tiny by modern stats) military as a Federal Government and let the States be the incubators. How will we get there? Will people listen to you? I don't know. I know if the returning Soldiers are shown that the Government is in shambles, they are the fighters, convert them. Some in this community aren't biting on this flag controversy stupidity. Some us are looking for a return on our investment, not a shit show of disrespect. I know some of you don't want to save the Country and feel emblematic loyalties are childish or Paganistic. I don't care if you are right.

How am I to recruit returning Soldiers or retired Law Enforcement officers if all of the base of this group is either at the Dentist getting their teeth fixed or is out alienating all the people I am approaching?

Like my article follow me @tom74, I don't write often so I try to make it worth it.

Some morons are okay with Muslims beheading people for saying Allah is a pedophile. They are sometimes offended that US Citizens talk shit about people taking a knee.

Some are okay with idiots using force to remove the MAGA hats off others, but get upset when Soldiers without legs get offended when football players take a knee to protest the flag of THEIR sacrifice.
