Finally! The last argument ever needed against these stupid NFL protests of the national anthem.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, and some of his millionaire buddies in the NFL have been taking a knee this season when the anthem plays before games and showing their disrespect for America and the soldiers who have fought for their freedoms to do so.

There’s been plenty of reaction from both sides of the debate, but there’s nothing I like better than when someone from the U.S. Military stands up against these “men” who only have to fight for a little leather ball from inside the safety of a football stadium. U.S. Pacific Command Commander Adm. Harry Harris put them in their place so perfectly in his speech for Pearl Harbor’s 75th anniversary that got him a well-deserved standing ovation — even me from in front of my computer!

Here’s what he told them:

“You can bet that the men and women we honor today – and those who died that fateful morning 75 years ago – never took a knee and never failed to stand whenever they heard our national anthem being played.”

It took him only 15 seconds to say that, but it took over 45 seconds for the crowd to calm down so he could continue.

I LOVE it!
