Chris Pratt to People Who Complain About America: ‘Your Right to Free Expression Is Paid for in Blood’
The openly Christian and right-leaning actor shared photos on Instagram that thanked our brave troops for defending our freedoms.
“A-list Hollywood actor Chris Pratt took to Instagram on Memorial Day to tell those who [complain about America] that their ‘right to free expression is paid for in blood,’” Breitbart reported.
“Chris Pratt wrote in an Instagram caption, in which he shared several photos of U.S. military personnel and their loved ones,” Breitbart said.
“From the Union Army defeating slave owning confederates, to the Greatest Generation and her Allies vanquishing the Nazis or our special operators hunting down the perpetrators of 9/11. We count the names of each fallen solider [sic] lest they be countless,” the Marvel actor said.
He said people can complain about America but should remember why they have that freedom to do so.
“Criticism is a right and necessity in amending the flawed systems of man,” Pratt said. “So by all means, let your voice be heard. But never forget your right to free expression is paid for in blood. May God give their souls rest, and may they live in our memories this weekend and always.”
Pratt has previously been criticized by far-left activists for not joining in on a fundraiser for Joe Biden and for wearing a “Don’t tread on me” shirt, a design popular with conservatives and libertarians.
Pratt voted for Obama in 2012 but has not said who he voted for in 2020.
