As a veteran it’s respectful to stand, and remove your hat. If he chose not to stand that’s the freedom we provided to exercise his rights. That was assault clear and simple, he should be charged accordingly.

Forced patriotism is fascism. And that was assault. Press charges.

Here’s the thing. We can visually display our disapproval, but no one has a right to put their hands on another…period.

veteran here.in my humble opinion scolding and slapping somebody during the anthem is infinitely more disrespectful to the anthem than sitting during it.

Soooo sitting quietly during the national anthem is disrespectful but not slapping some, yelling, throwing a tantrum, and ignoring the anthem isn’t???
