And so what if they want to make a public statement in a way that has nothing to do with disrespecting the f**g or country.

How can you say that with a straight face?!? Kneeling while our national anthem is being played has everything to do with disrespecting our f**g and our country! The National Anthem, otherwise known as the Star Spangled Banner, is completely about the f**g and the country it represents and what it took to keep it flying while soldiers lay dying defending our country.

I remember in the military when the f**g was lowered and the anthem played every body would run to get inside instead of having to stand and salute.

No doubt you were the first in line to leave. If you h**e America this much, why are you here? Let me guess: because you have a good job? Either that, or you love the food stamps and welfare? What is it that keeps you here? Hey - I have an idea, I'll buy you all the luggage you need to leave....maybe a plane ticket, too, if I can choose your destination.

You call it h**e, I want a better country for all. I was also trying to point out that this craziness about the anthem is agenda driven. An excuse to fight cooked up by someone who was too cowardly to fight.

As I said, my logic is indisputable. You once again failed to challenge my argument. You are so sure of what you believe yet you lack the knowledge to argue the merits of your beliefs. I always put stuff out there and you just dismiss it without giving any arguments. Are all Liberals so unprepared in logic as you are ?

You must mean the kneelers. Bunch of over paid kids who are biting the hand that feeds them. What are they accomplishing? Nothing. Why weren’t they having town halls this summer. Invite the police and give them your grievances. This stupid stunt accomplished nothing. Typical lib move. Designed for attention only.

And yet you went the entire thread without proving anything. Where's you're proof? I mean other than 'because I said so'.

Like I said. Easily researchable and proven on the news, in print etc. you say you’re a working man. Get to work.

I find it very interesting that people adamantly state that Kaepernick is not protesting our f**g when he said this: "I am not going to stand up to show p***e in a f**g for a country that oppresses black people and people of color."

Thank you. Stiff and his ilk conveniently overlook the t***h.

Stiff and his ilk just don't accept your version of 't***h'. That simple.

Reminds you of the Obama administration, doesn't it? Except the roles are reversed. Sauce for the goose...

I read it and it makes a good case. So does this, from the same paper (a link within yours):

So where does that leave us?
