I actually just covered this very topic myself yesterday @justblake. You and I see this issue from completely polar opposite stances.

Who are they disrespecting exactly?

Not the military. They are in support of them because many gave their lives just so that people like them COULD protest peacefully. So it's not them.

So whom then?

The millions of armchair quarterbacks that are seated in their wife beaters and boxers with a bag of chips and a six pack at their side as the anthem plays?

Them maybe?

Hmm.

So really the only people they're "disrespecting" are the anonymous cowards at home who are just as guilty of "disrespecting" the anthem by remaining seated.

So yeah, there's that.
