I don't necessarily like wearing a flag and I would think I have earned the right to wear one or not. Trust me when I tell you, what someone wears does not mean they are willing to support that symbol until the end. I came across countless people in the military that have more business being in jail than serving the country. And some of the people I talk about are high-ranking officials.
If someone doesn't want to wear the flag, they shouldn't wear it.
I will need those retirement checks to keep coming though.
