For each player that takes a knee during the National Anthem, have a uniformed vet or active duty member step directly in front of them with a sharp salute to the flag. Block them from view, yet protect their right to do what they will. I like the symbolism. Quoting: Taewen |

So much for your emancipation you dumb spotlight hogs. Much like the slave gladiators of the Roman pits, I see this as the slave athletes kneeling before the cheering crowd of ticket paying masters that are there to be entertained before they go back to their daily productive life. |

Quoting: Taewen better yet have those vets form a line around said foolish want-to-be-over-paid to-play-a-child's-game-heroes....then the vets can claim their first amendment right to block said children from the field. a good video editor can make anyone say anything the editor wants. |

This is a social issue, it's up to the NFL and/or the team-owners to decide how they want to treat this matter. Passing legislature at the governmental-level to make individuals do things like this would violate the U.S. Constitution as it was intended to be interpreted. Patriotism and "Social-contract" means different things to different people; get over it ya'll. Just another dumb issue to divide the citizenry when they should be focused on more important issues. |
Taewen (OP) User ID: 75344917 United States 08/20/2018 12:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I grew up in a time where we said the pledge of allegiance to the flag each morning at the start of the school day. We all sang the national anthem when it was played with our hands over our hearts, facing the flag. Its certainly their right to take a knee, but its embarrassing that they do. Its just another symptom of the decay of values that we see every day. Let the real men - the ones that give you the right to be an ass, step forward and show how it should be done. The first step in preparing a nation for war is to demonize the enemy and rally support from the public. The enemy must be viewed by the public as truly horrific. Only then, can the government unleash destruction against another people without backlash from the masses. These events have been scripted, publicized heavily and will be used as the justification. |
