It's about respect, it's about 9/11....

Unfortunately, if you really don't "get it", it's doubtful you ever will.
If it isn't about sports officiating then do you wear a flag on your street clothes?

The part I do not understand is why many people would never wear a flag on their street clothes but when they go out to officiate they wear shirts with flags. To them there must be some correlation between officiating and patriotism as if it was about respect and all the things you said then they would wear one on their street clothes also.
