re: How many of you will watch your favorite team when they kneel for the national anthem?

i really couldn't care less if a football player wants to take a knee
But some people do care

I'm going to bet if we were taking a knee in honor of white supremacy, you'd have no problem doing it. Stop being an ignorant bitch. The kneeling has nothing to do with the flag. Nothing to do with the military. The simple fact is that it is being used to draw attention to an issue that you find abhorrent...namely racial equality.

It would be a question...Why did you serve a Country that you don’t respect?

No
Obviously my opinion won’t sway them just as their opinion won’t sway my opinion.

It’s being used to draw attention, but how many truely stand up for this. I’d have more respect if these people practice what they preach and improve these communities.
You’re manipulating people by kneeling when our National Anthem is played while the flag is presented. Just suck it up and be grateful you live here, instead of Saudi Arabia (women are finally driving cars there) for instance.

I will. They can kneel all they want. Racist will be racist either way.

So now we can't criticize our country or try to fix issues? We just have to be content that we don't live somewhere shittier?
Here's a novel idea: We can simultaneously acknowledge that we live in a great country that affords us many freedoms but we have issues and can be better.
And many people are trying to fix the issues, but many of the issues in the black community are deeply tied into in our history and will take time, focus, and societal change to fix.

The frick? We’re talking about taking a knee against the greatest Country on Earth. Are there racial issues? Absolutely, on BOTH sides. Racism is a fact of life anywhere in the word, and it’s not exclusive to black people. That being said, in what Country have black people had more success or have been taken care of more than the US has done?
Bottom line, most working class people have a problem with anyone that makes over 10 million dollars a year, disrespecting the place that allows them to make more money in one year, than they will in a lifetime.

Gasp. How dare you.....lol
I'll watch. It's football. the same fricking hypocrites that say they won't watch NFL should also probably not ever watch a movie again because the people who star in those movies think the same way

No. I’m done. Pro and college. F them.

You can say anything you want. Lots of soldiers died to give you the right to shite on the Country that they defended,

I may not watch a down of NFL football this season.

Just wanted to say thank you to all of the liberals out there who were able to infiltrate and politicize sports!
The one sanctity of America that normally brought people together; you were able to divide!
Here’s to you! There is no doubt you could frick up anything you put your hands on!

I would prefer if they just stopped playing the anthem at sporting events to not give them the opportunity.
Posted on 6/6/20 at 10:58 pm to Giantkiller
Then they would bitch about them being silenced and you know what white silence means, right?
