TS, I truly believe that for every lowlife, narcissistic celebrity (and politician), there are thousands of hard working, humble, honest, sincere and caring Americans that greatly appreciate your and every service members sacrifices made for this country and its people. I, and all of my friends and family, definitely feel that way. I, like you, am disgusted by what I see on t.v. and on the internet but I still believe that a large percentage of American citizens feel as we do.
Here is a video I think is a lot more inspiring to watch that I saw on Spartan Blades Facebook page a couple days ago. I watched it, then watched it again with my wife and kids. We had tears in our eyes. I sent it to my friends and they watched it and said the same thing. My father served in 1st Cav in Vietnam, my uncle flew fighter bombers in Vietnam, both my grandfathers served in WW II, three of my great grandfathers were in WW I. I know that at times they wondered "was it all worth it" but they all ultimately knew it was. This is still the greatest free country on the planet even though we have stumbled recently. Think about how we felt in 79 and 80 as a nation. We WILL get back up.

Britt McHenry is nothing more than a blip in time and a true loser. I will call ESPN and demand her termination as well. I have watched ESPN since it began. Unfortunately it has changed a lot for the worse in the last ten years. Hopefully enough people voice they're outrage and the message gets heard.
