...giggled and then started all over again. Instantaneously a parade was underway and it has been going on ever since. There were soldiers from every nation participating in the war – except Germany. All the national anthems of the allies were played at the parade and the crowds, which were large, cheered, but it was all very solemn. The streets are crowded and all traffic is held up. This is a moment that will never be replicated. Not even a motion picture of the masses can capture the expression or the sound of joy that the people are creating. Today, Paris is the center of the world. There is nowhere I would be rather than where I am today, Ma. Home with you and the rest of the family would be pleasant, and I will head back home soon, I promise, but Paris and France is free after four years and 3 months of conflict. The souls of these French people have solely bursted with delight, and it is spreading. Everyone feels united. It is difficult to purchase a flag in Paris currently. It appears that everyone has one and the old streets are one compact mass of colors with flags from all the allied nations. Paris, that majestic old city, that has been shadowy for so long, is now shining again. An American band has come together outside, and they are playing our national anthem. It is magnificent that the war is over. I can imagine the entire world is exultant. But nowhere on earth is there a celebration as here in Paris. I only hope and pray that the soldiers who died in the...

...Trump praised NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell for taking a hard line on the National Anthem protests, even though that's not what the Commissioner did.

Kaepernick fans burned his jersey and NFL executives told sports websites that they viewed Kaepernick as a traitor and would never sign him to their teams.

All of the above connects to the theme because Colin Kaepernick didn’t stand up during the National Anthem due to police brutality, and many people saw him as a traitor and disrespectful to...
