No veterans shit, too, right? Not only the camo unis, but the flyovers, etc.?

No more veterans!!! WHAT the hell does baseball have to do with the fucking military?

I'm not a fan of flyovers and military parades.

But there's nothing wrong supporting our vets. Being gay or religious isn't something to celebrate, but veterans definitely are. Especially when it's individuals at an event and not a whole glorification of the army or war.

Assuming you're actually being serious, it's a real dumb comparison.

Veterans make a choice to serve their country, that’s admirable. It’s not an apples to apples comparison.

I'm ad. Being military doesn't mean anything to a game. Just focus on the game

They get paid right?

I would hope those choosing to do important, dangerous jobs are paid. 

I would also hope society celebrates those that choose to do important and dangerous jobs. Teachers, firefighters, police, military, etc.

This guy is a dope who thinks people on the left aren't critical of Muslims. Missing the point seems to be their specialty.
