I read an article today that was headlines.
“By far the most dangerous situation I’ve ever been in.” This story is about people in a restaurant in California that plays the National Anthem each day at noon. some people stood at their table and placed their hands over their hearts during this. For some reason some people thought this display of national respect made them feel unsafe. As a citizen and a veteran I just don't see how being patriotic is unsafe for people. No one is being forced to stand. no one is attacking anyone who does not stand. I feel bad for those who do not respect our country, our flag and our service people. It's a sad day my friends. As for me I will stand, I will salute the flag, even if I am the only one. Memorial Day is more than party's and a day off work. I thank my brothers and sisters for their sacrifice.
