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.

I could give 2 shits if you respect me. I would be appreciative if you respected service members for their sacrifices. It is why I particularly like "Thank you for your Service". Nowhere have I said all Veterans support my POV. There's a veteran in this very forum and we agree on nothing. But I respect and thank him and others for their service.
