Hmmm. Let me ask this.
Do you think the percentage of thos in the service who oppose the protests is lower than the general population? That's an absurd suggestion, IMO. Is that what you are trying to say?

Didn't see where he said that, but I'm fairly certain you are. I didn't see a single post from you taking offense to nazi protest in Charlottesville- killing people.
A black man kneeling while a celebrity sings our anthem before an oh so sacred football game - end of the world, right? bullshite.
You are a racist dude. Just admit it so we can better decipher your bullshite argument. I'm sure you never agreed with the pov of a black person in your life. I Can relate though, as I had the same thought process until I was 12.

...then why is the flag draped on every coffin of every service person who dies? That flag is then given to the family. It will become an heirloom and will be in a glass/wood case. The flag is a sacred symbol of the unity of our country, and it is near to the heart of every patriotic American. It represents the blood shed by those who have fought in wars to protect our Constitution with their blood.
A person who chooses to protest during the national anthem DOES disrespect our country, anthem, flag, thus they are being disrespectful to the dead who shed their blood while fighting to protect our Constitution, and that disrespectful act WILL anger real American patriots.

Ask any service member how they feel about our nations flag and what it means to them to see these players standing for the U.K. Anthem and kneeling for ours.

Well stated! How many Saints players were taking a knee and/or sitting prior to this past weekend? I don't remember any, but I could be wrong. How many teams in past weeks did not come out for the national anthem? Last week's display of solidarity by the NFL was ALL in response to DT's comments/tweets....nothing more, nothing less. Many teams have already stated they will be standing this week....of crs DT will claim 'he fixed it'. Comical! Hold it together POTUS and focus on the issues that impact my, and millions like me, dinner table - taxes, jobs, debt, health care, national defense, education, etc. Thx!
