The only military people I don't respect are the ones who try to act like they speak for everyone who has ever been in the military.  This was especially galling to me during the "kneeling during the anthem" debate.  Tons of self-righteous conservative Republican vets claiming the only reason they were upset was because they were military vets or their family members were.  But the fact is that there were lots of vets who had no problem with the kneeling during the anthem.

So when I hear some person claiming that he only opposes booing Trump because he is a military vet and was taught different I see right through that BS.  There are plenty of vets who would boo Trump.

So while I respect honorable vets, I am disgusted by vets who try to claim their own personal bias should be respected just because they are vets.

If you want any respect from me stop wrapping yourself in the flag to try and justify your defense of a guy who brags about being an asshole.
