There were tons of black people who volunteered in WWII and they were treated like shite for making the same sacrifices.

It's all about intent. Him kneeling has nothing to do with the military in this case. His mom is a Army veteran. A persons actions should be judged by their intent.

Because it is personal to him.

A relatively few bad apples or misjudgements by police officers


Most cops are good, but the bad ones should not get a free pass for what any other person would serve time for. Everybody can agree on that.

Not really disagreeing with your point of view. But his point of view could be different and necessarily not wrong at the same time. His intent has nothing to do with disrespecting the military.

Right. When I see a guy pooping on a baby I should not get upset if he tells me that he is protesting police brutality and that he has a baby himself. Because only the protestors intentions matter, not the act. In fact, he is pooping on his own baby!
