I think the players that kneel love America. The people that are offended also love America. We just differ in our opinion of how to express it. The people that are offended feel the kneeling disrespects the flag. The ones kneeling feel they expect more out of their country and more specifically, the police.
In the big scheme of things the actual act of kneeling, in my opinion isn't that big of a deal. It's good that both sides are upset. It's good that there's discussion as long as it's civil, although sometimes heated. That shows both sides still care. Both sides are passionate and want the continue to raise the high standards we have set as a country.
I think we will get through this somehow. We are all in this together.
God Bless America. May we never stop arguing about how to make this great country even better. The day we stop caring is the day we should be worried.
Let's not take things so seriously. Those bigger things to concern ourselves with than some players kneeling during the anthem.
Gnite guys.
This is fact. Too many people love the NFL.
If they wanted to really help the problem they'd tell people to listen to the police and do whatever they say when they're talking to you, don't be a criminal and do criminal shit otherwise bad things happen, and stay in school and listen to your teachers. Those are the types of things that could actually help save lives, not kneeling or doing some BS silent protest where you won't even say why or what you're protesting(Marshawn Lynch), yeah that's really useful/helpful and going to get things done. Idiot.
Well yes, that’s a reason to not watch. But blame the nfl then, don’t blame 8 players peaceful protests as your reason. Or that you are offended because it’s un-American.
The nfl are liars and hypocrites. Nobody is debating that.
Do it on their OWN Time, Why can't they ??
If I worked for Google, I couldn't go into work and protest Google's privacy policy or the way they Track peoples every move. I'd be Fired !
So why can't they Protest on their day off ?? Why can't they protest in the middle of Times Square ?? Why do they have to do it During the Anthem ?
Give me a reasonable answer that makes sense and I'll STFU about it
Actually it is pretty simple. Dont resist the police and the chances are extremely high you won't get shot. If you feel that the arrest is unwarranted you get your day in court.
Let the dumb fucks keep protesting. They have virtually no support other than like minded racist idiots. Even the average liberal football fan can’t stand them. It shows their true colors, how ignorant they are and how isolated the are. It will eventually implode on them financially. Fuck em.maybe these players can direct there protests etc to whats going on in Chicago.. Seems to me that is a bigger problem then the 1 in a million cops shooting blacks issue..
