Have any of the players answered this question? Could it possibly be about respect?

Because they, unsurprisingly, are ignorant of history.

Because their protest doesn't involve England.

I wondered this as well. Surely if the players are protesting the police and racial injustice in the US, then they would also want to protest racial injustice worldwide. I don't think the U.K. is the epitome of racial equality.

I thought it was about general awareness? Which one is it? Can these dumbasses at least get on the same page??

For what's going on in the US. They played both anthems. They protested during the American anthem, but not the English anthem. How is this so difficult for you?

Because they know the NFL would flip their shite if they insulted a country besides America.

The protest isn't about what happened 150+ years ago.

Glad they have you on the case. You seem to know more than the actual protesters.

This gem of very simple observation is lost on them I'm afraid. They cannot even see how incredibly ironic it is that they claim protesting a national anthem isn't about dishonor or disrespect but rather their free speech, yet when it comes to God Save the Queen, they clearly stood so at to not offend the Brits by being disrespectful.

These morons are clueless, and quite honestly don't really care anyway. Garbage in Garbage out.

Exactly! I'd love to see one of these idiots answer that question in an interview. They would immediately contradict themselves as usual.
