When all of this started, I somewhat questioned it and thought the 'movement' was not necessary. People like you and others on this site have shown me that we still have a long way to go. I consider you to be much more of a disgrace to LSU than someone like Magee.

It really all comes down to having empathy for others.

The movement isn't the problem. The method is.

It's fine to do this but not at a sporting event. You don't bring political issues to a sporting event. This is why it's getting so much blow back. People go to these places to enjoy the GAME! Not players protesting. It's not about having empathy for others, it's about entertainment. Have you seen what every other channel or place that have expressed their political views to the world did for them? It's cost them lots of views and money. The NFL DOES NOT want this in it's sport and I don't blame them. If you want to express your views, go to a rally, make a sign, get on CNN or Fox News and do that. Not at a football game where people pay good money to watch entertainment, not political protesting in front of them. It's sad really.

They are hurting their own place of employment, which is counter productive if you ask me. There are a hell of a lot more people that don't want to see this, then do. They should know this, and if they do know it but still do it, it's like telling your boss FU, to his face. Not going to end well for you.

There are ways to do this without disrespecting others.

frick all these guys kneeling during the national anthem. What is the reason they are doing it this week? Most of them are bankrupt 5 years after leaving the league because they aren't that bright and make poor decisions. This whole disrespect your country fad is just one more example of that.
