Politics, Social Media and Marriage.

I didn't really know where to go to vent but it is an awful day for me. Today SHOULD be a great day but it isn't.
It is my 9th year anniversary.
This started last evening at bedtime. I leaned over to give my husband a kiss good night. He did a quick, hesitant peck and stated how mad he was about some social media comments(facebook) I made. I am 100% sure it was a comment I made on the Seattle Seahawks FB page responding to the people that are banning the team/NFL because of the 'few' who are kneeling or sitting. I said that it was NOT anti-military but more about law enforcement, etc. I also might have called some Trolls, etc. s***, all I really want is to discuss the team and the game. It gets tiring to read all the time.
Anyways, he continued to say that "you know you are married to a vet, right?" and also that I was fucked in the head to support the protesters. I was in complete SHOCK at his statements to where all I could say was "Wow!, I guess I have no right to have an opinion". For starters, I am not happy about the whole anthem protest issue because I feel it is dividing the country, etc.....
Anyways, when this whole thing started this year, my husband DID say it was their right but it was also his not to watch the NFL. He even said that if I watched games when he wasn't around he was OK with it. So, this has me very confused.
I am also very depressed today. I am thinking about deactivating my FB page. For the time being I changed my settings so he cannot see anything I share, like or comment on unless he is tagged by me. I can't believe I did that. Shocked that it came to that. I never thought that the man I love who has been a beacon of support for me, would resort to this s***. I never felt like I couldn't speak my mind or have an opinion. I slept maybe 3 hours last night. My tears won't stop.
Some anniversary.
I went into the DISH account setting online and cancelled the "News" package. This will get rid of FOX News, MSNBC, etc. Unfortunately the only one it won't get rid of is CNN. I hate them all to be quite honest. It will save us 10$ a month. That's my take when he asks.
My husband is very conservative and to me he's been kinda obsessed with it-ESPECIALLY FOX News....
I really cannot believe that he would think I don't love my country or respect vets. I am actually quite the opposite.
This hurts my soul because I love him. He is my soul mate.
Sorry for my rant, I just had nowhere to vent.
