I have two pieces for you this week as I want to address some issues that have hit the news.
1. Nike pulled a sneaker displaying the “Betsy Ross Flag” in
response to a complaint from Colin Kaepernick. The NFL star (known for
political activism in protest of systemic racism – including kneeling
during the national anthem) expressed that he and others considered the
symbol (featured on the shoe’s heel) offensive. The shoe was set to go on sale this week.
Two
takeaways here. Apparently, Colin Kaepernick is able to control a
$134.2 billion dollar company whenever he finds something offensive. And
two, he clearly doesn’t know the full history behind the Betsy Ross Flag. Please read our guide and share so you can show other’s what the Betsy Ross flag truly stands for: https://ammo.com/articles/
2. Happy Fourth of July!
To celebrate, here is a Live Photo of me during last years holiday:
In
all seriousness, I feel that we can get lost in this holiday (like
others) and focus solely on the BBQ and fireworks. But let’s take a
minute to reflect on America and the true heroism it took to give us
freedom. We are the greatest country alive so let’s show a little
appreciation :)

You stay safe out there, Brock, and have an amazing 4th of July!
Talk soon!
Problem with those that understand their history is they don't realize that if they don't do the same as our founders did and band together then we will be forgotten history as well...
