And what he did had no relation to veterans at all. LaRussa is full of crap.

That you didn’t wear yourself out by putting too much information into your post. Guess I will have to find out more elsewhere.

As it turns out, he's my younger brother's father-in-law.

In fact, I literally performed the ceremony marrying his daughter to my brother.

He is, in most every way, a solid liberal dude, as is his entire family (Elaine, Bianca, and Devin).

Just sayin'

The kneeling and refusal of the anthem at events has nothing to do with respecting the military.

My Puke: Kappernick kneeling was kneeling on the neck of the military.

IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MILITARY

Kappernick was about killing unarmed black men.

Today it’s about killing unarmed children.


If anything it’s about police protection or lack thereof.

Military fights for our rights to protest.

He is not a bats@*t crazy republican. I disagree with his stance, but he is generally one of the good guys. We need more good guys even imperfect ones.
