This pretty much sums it up. I was at Mission BBQ in MD today, and I didn't know this beforehand, but the entire place stands and pays respect to the national anthem at noon every day. Both staff and customers. I thought it was pretty cool, even if it temporarily kept me from chowing down on a pretty decent brisket sandwich.

I'll probably get some hate for this but I really don't care. I put on a uniform to secure freedom for Americans. I may not agree with how you express yourself, but I would fight and die for your right to do so.
