The Pittsburgh Steelers took the National Anthem protest to a new level today. The Steelers are playing at Soldier Field in Chicago against the Bears. All but 1 Steeler refused to even walk on the field for the National Anthem. They stayed in the locker room like cowards and that is shameful.
But there was one brave Steeler today that walked out to the field, stood proudly, and respected our great American Flag. Alejandro Villanueva served 3 tours in Afghanistan and and was a highly decorated member of the Special Forces. He fought, he bled, he saw his brothers die.
Villanueva’s teammates all know the sacrifice that he made for this country. Yet they show the ultimate form of disrespect to our country and their teammate. It will be interesting to see the fallout from this. What do you think? Cheers!
