Exactly, the National Anthem is not the place. He should camp outside his local FOP, or boycott games or donate his entire check as a bench warmer to a cause.
I served in Iraq on many occasions. I understand the dissent about going to Iraq. I understand the protest about police brutality. BUT, this is one day where WE REMEMBER. You want people to look forward but are real quick to bring up these facts of our past to support your agenda now. No country is perfect and as ADM McCraven said in a letter to "Those that believe the flag represents oppression should remember all the Americans who fought to eliminate bigotry, racism, sexism, imperialism, communism, and terrorism" If you cant show respect for those things that are suppose to symbolize what is right about this country, why should anyone respect your opinion or your cause?
You should honor your past and work to improve your future.
Not trying to be disrespectful to you, I just don't see where you're coming from, and I don't think Kapernick and Trumps actions are on the same level.
Yeah...most...were you a statistics major damn you're stupid
I dont need anyone to respect my opinion. I know i don't have the popular view on this thread. Instead of thinking bout the past, let's solve the real problem we have here right now.. what's done is done. Let's focus on why he is kneeling. Let's talk about that. Let's talk about police getting paid leave after committing murder. That's whats imlortant.
Like I said dude, full retard!! You are Charlie Sheen. Ya know South Park did a great episode regarding people like you. Perhaps you can hire the "Hardly Boys" to confirm it was the Bush administration? Enjoy Hillary!!
Now it's all about bringing attention to themselves. What is taking a knee gonna change, absolutely nothing. I do not have a problem with anyone protesting but that is their place of employment and no one should protest at there job unless protest the job. Kneel or sit all you want but keep why your doing it to yourself. Go Kneel or sit in thone oppressed neighborhoods and help change lives rather thanot doing it on the football sideline.
Lets talk about the party that runs these cities where this shit is happening!
One of the reasons he kneels is because he's never been a cop.
No need for insults.. they dont validate ur statements. If u dont like what I said then ignore me.
No, I believe the insults are warranted if you think the Bush administration is responsible for 9/11.
I don't see how's it's not on the same level. The same people bitching are the same ones swallowing every statement that he makes bashing the country. They are also the same ones that bitch about sjw's and whiney libs. The hypocrisy is embarrassing. All the fake outrage is a joke. Who gives a shit if he kneels, sits, or burns the flag. What does that even mean? It's his right to do so long as it doesn't affect my life. There are far more important issues that this country has than some athletes not standing for the anthem.
Really hoping for more athletes to start kneeling.
For what? Why don't they just not go to work and not get paid? Go on strike in mass.
Me too!! I am also pulling for more cops to be "selective" in who they choose to help! It's a free country and their right, last time I checked.
Funny, I think insults are warrented towards you for beliving Bush didn't have a hand in this. Actually I almost pitty ur blindness.
This would actually help... No racist cop will shoot the innocent... because they woukdnt go and "help" in the first place.
Like South Park said 25% of Americans are retarded. You = retarded! Enjoy your bitterness. Maybe one day when you need a cop he/she won't be there. Oh well.....
Because the point is for ppl like yoy to see them kneeling and spark a conversation. If they don't go to work, they can't protest.
Exactly.. any black person with an ounce of pride would never acknowledge this racist a** anthem. It's funny that people on this board are actually offended that black people won't acknowledge a slave owner's song talking about putting our ancestors in a grave. Some people never cease to amaze me.
Racist cops working for their racist democrat mayors
Exactly!! Just let those "innocent" people continue to kill others and themselves!! Pull out of every urban neighborhood and watch it burn. Yep, great idea. God Bless my AR-15's!!
Why does everything have to be about left and right and Democrat and Republican with people like you? You are the biggest puppets of these political parties. Neither one of them give a damn about you or I. Stop getting played.
Retard huh? Maybe u should get up from ur comfy couch in ur comfy bed and serve ur country so this retard doesn't have to. Can't belive I defended ppl like you. Smh. Not a proud moment.
What? No, some of these spoiled athletes (and entertainers) are fvcking dopes speaking out of their area of expertise, and they want their cake and eat it too. The bottom line is they want to get paid and won't sacrifice the dolla dolla bill. Walking out in mass causing a strike would cause a stop work and generate a greater discussion when games get cancelled or postponed. One or two dudes doing it is just douchebaggery. I was pissed when Bush caused 9/11 and postponed an entire week of NFL games. His plan backfired.
Btw, this is the second time u use south park as ur source for information. Good night my man. Educate urself before posting again.
You have
If you want to draw attention to a real problem..protest in the correct way..don't disrespect the country and military. Overall..even with its warts..wouldn't want to live in any other country. Look at the oppression, disregard for human and social rights in Kuntprenicks girlfriend's homeland
The issue is that he's trying to draw attention to a legitimate issue in a way that disrespects our country and military. Even with its warts..nowhere else I'd rather live. Tell me another country that has more freedoms, religious, freedom of speech or otherwise than the US. Not perfect by any means, but I don't see his girlfriend taking a knee to protest all the injustices in the countries she defends.
If in fact you did! And if you did I said thank you. But apparently you only served "our country" for people who agree with everything you believe. Congrats dude!!
I can't speak for others, but not with me. I never put my hand over my heart or do anything silly or gay like that. And I have shed blood overseas for this country. So does that make less American?
It's not about the flag nor military. He said he supports the military. He is talking about cops killing the innocent. That's what we need to talk about. Not political parties or the military.
Then don't disrespect the flag and country during National Anthem.
It’s about cops having to enforce stupid fukn laws like in NYC,,,,,,,,Hey, go down there and arrest that man for selling loosies....Shit.. Then it turns bad....
He didnt disrespect it. He just doesn't agree with the country. Shit, I dont agree with it. I think the anthem need to be re-written. Disrespecting and disagreeing are two different things.
