JustinNck1 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Me without people kneeling during national anthem: Me with people kneeling during national anthem: I simply have no fucks to give. When people beg for attention, and you give it to them, they're gonna do it more. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 The vast majority of these players aren't protesting anything. They are just being trendy. Kneeling is the new planking, or Tebow-ing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyDuty Posted September 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) If Trump had come out and said he was all for them kneeling not a single one of them would have taken a knee. Every veteran I know will tell you it is their right to take a knee but they also find it highly disrespectful and offensive. Let me add that no matter what the media tells you our feeling have nothing to do with racism.

Even Fox News gets it. Trump is playing you, intentionally dividing the country to hide his batshit insanity. No different than any other politician has done from any other party. If you peeps are really buying this bullshit we are totally fucked. No matter what kind of spin anyone tries to put on this it is still the simble of the United States and to most vetrans that is exactly what they are doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jschaf Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) We've got the browns. Football is some boring, depressing shit. Haven't watched a game in a few years. Haven't seen any of the motorcycle elite take a knee on the podium when they play their national anthems, although the USA is now not represented since Nicky got taken. It seems that most, if not all of the NFL kneelers are protesting inequalities in the justice system & law enforcement & have no qualms with those that put their lives at risk in the military. Their right to protest in the manner they do is one of the strong points of our constitution. Hope that doesn't fade away like the browns. Of course, you definitely have the constitutional right to vote against the kneelers by not watching the NFL (like I don't). Flag flown every day at the house here.

I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; It doesn't say, defend the Constitution when I agree. In fact, they of all people should be condemning Trump for using his office to try and shut this protest down. That is clearly a violation of the First Amendment, at least from a moral standpoint. We should have a beer with my kid, he is a Vet. Thinks the players have every right to do this, and he is one of the more conservative people I know. And I have a question. How exactly should these people protest. If the march they get yelled at for blocking traffic. If the kneel they get yelled at. They can't hold office at least in Ohio because the R's have rigged the Congressional distrcts Theyhave a legit beef on some issues, they have a right to be heard.

You may have missed one of my posts think about this.They are also disrespecting every black veteran that has served.

I admit I do not stand when alone at home but always do in public. At our post everyone stands at attention when the anthem plays before any event.

Ron505 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) I have to have a line between my personal life and my professional life. I will/can not bring politics or personal beliefs into my place of business, without expecting repocution. These snotty brats can? Apparently I'm a whiney bitch because I can't mix politics/personal beliefs with my money making...

magley64 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I'm fine with standing, and I fully support them kneeling. I'm also fine with the hot dog vendor continuing to sell miscellaneous meat stuffed intestines and beer. It's just a symbol, it's what the symbol represents that counts.

And for them that symbol is starting to represent generations of repression and abandonment. A government that accepts their service in the armed forces and then lets cops walk when they gun them down. No, not as often as the say, but far too often. A government that would rather spend money on tanks or studies of the mating habits of bees than help parentless children. I really think most people's stand on this issue boils down to whether or not they agree with the claims of the black folks. The rest is just justification for their view.

Why did that change you ask? Because the god damn government is wasting 6 millions dollars a year for this to happen. If Trump is so pissed about it maybe pull the funding and put it towards something of better use. There should have been a refund clause.

Gixxus Christ! Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Lol, everyone pissed about the anthem while they break the us flag code on the field by displaying the flag flat to the ground. It should only ever be displayed free and flying. Same goes for all the fuckin 'murica apparel that is American flag print. Also against us flag code. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
