We were shopping in a King Soopers yesterday and there was this asshole wearing a huge confederate flag shirt. Probably a Trump Humper. He was a 60 something baby boomer most likely.
Plus have seen a couple of really HUGE pick up trucks in the area flying huge oversized American flags.
You just get sick of these morons. I bet none of them ever served in the military.

He probably doesn't even know that it's not the flag of the Confederacy he's wearing.

See if how they react. You can always use the excuse that you "assumed" they had served.

My guess is also not about service. Pure white dominating haters is my vibe. Maybe I'm wrong

We never revisit the sin of treating people as if they were property because we want to commit it again and again.
