We need to all take a breath here. I read this report from another site. The man was military and was discharged after suffering brain trauma. So there seems to be an issue there. If the boy cussed at him, he was wrong. But you cannot lay your hands on other people. So the guy is in the wrong and will probably see a lawsuit from it. But I hope someone looks into this guy and makes sure this isn't a mental issue.
Now apart from that incident you SHOULD respect that flag. People gave their blood,limbs and life for YOUR freedom to sit here on a pc and give your opinion. Had they not done that, and keep doing it, you wouldn't have all the freedoms you enjoy. And many,many people who serve are Christians. As they say, stand for the flag, kneel for the cross. Don't get it twisted, we know which is which.

As for the military, I have family members who have served in the military and known folks that sacrificed all. So please don't give me a lecture on the expense of freedom.
God is no respecter of persons either, though.
I don't support anyone who assaults someone (especially a child) over not taking their hat off for the National Anthem no matter what reason they give.
