Credible comments: 

I found the comments by TxMedRgr and Occupare to be credible. 

Occupare seems to have taken a very impartial stance to this issue. He agrees that this act is protected under the free speech right which is about his only opinionated statement in this comment, and he isn't bashing them for using their right like this, so I wouldn't be opposed to make the leap that he supports this right. He also uses contextual circumstance and outside related issues in his argument, he brings up a similar issues that took place at SFSU. Then he brings up another similar issue from VSU from the past about free speech as well. He supports his well organized comment with evidence and doesn't simply thrust his opinion through whoever's eyes happen to gaze over at his comment. This is why he seems credible to me  

TxMedRgr is more opinionated than Occupare. He states that the walking on the flag is disgusting and he wishes that more people would have spoken out against the protestors. Expressing a wish but not fear in this circumstance. He clearly values the symbol of the american flag very highly. The thing that makes him credible is that he supports both sides of the argument, and he also takes responsibility for his opinion and says that it is his opinion. Which is why I feel like he is credible.

Not Credible comments:

I found Harriet Gaston and cooperwa to be not credible commentaries at all. 

Cooperwa's comment is all over the place, first thanking god for protecting the innocent (god is not mentioned once in this article) and then goes on to bash the educational system from K-12 with no lead in nor point to his insults. Then precedes to go back to thanking god for our vets. He clearly values religion and also an anger towards those who don't agree with his opinion which right there makes him not credible. His comment adds nothing to an article about black lives and protesting. 

Harriet gaston's comment actually does refer back to something in the article (the fact that the vet posed naked with the american flag for playboy is mentioned in this article for some reason) however like Cooperwa, his comment adds nothing and no one would miss it if it were never there. The focused on the most miniature detail thats so insignificant I was questioning why it was in the article in the first place. I can't get any values from this other than the fact he really holds playboy's outstanding journalism in the highest of regards for his personal further education on hot social-political issues. Or its something else but I can't think what that would be.
