I've only been lectured on the Pledge, etc, by family members of veterans. All the veterans I know are fully aware that the United States is a pyramid scheme and its wars are blood money for oil.
I’d love to know what war is being referenced where a wounded veteran is still alive to be a part of this scenario. What recent war can we say our military was fighting to defend our rights? Afghanistan? Iraq? Korea? Vietnam? I mean, seriously, when’s the last time a foreign power attacked our rights?

Shouldn't the vet be happy because the right he sought to protect was honored?

I'm not American so I'm happy to hear that the veterans know why they went thru it at least.

Shhh, you'll make people notice that it's local powers attacking our rights and not some evil foreign power of the week.
