Or is it possible the Flag has always represented far more than that? To me it represents freedom and unity.

I am sure it means different things to different people. There is no universal meaning. I personally don't think it represents strictly our military. It might even mean freedom and unity to those kneeling, but the government and many people in the nation are propagating just the opposite. I don't know exactly how they feel, but I'd guess they won't stand until people and the government of those people promote unity for everyone. It can represent one thing, but until the people who run this nation and the people of this nation actually promote and act to spread that meaning then it is ultimately meaningless. 

Edit: And not directed at you, but I love how the same people who are outraged over this generally overlap with the people who are upset about PC culture and "snowflakes." I guess if it is someone/something you feel are getting disrespected they aren't snowflakes anymore and those people kneeling need to be more politically correct! But me being upset when you use a disparaging word for gay people is PC culture and they are just little sensitive snowflakes.
