I am a Boy Scout responding to the Aug. 29 story “Kaepernick’s decision to sit through anthem scrutinized.” I strongly disagree with Colin Kaepernick’s ridiculous decision to disrespect our great country. There are other ways to make his point and this is definitely not one of them. I don’t care who you are, you always need to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance and give respect for the men and women who sacrifice everything to protect us everyday.
