Actually it IS an issue of race, only not the way the media wants to frame it: The thugs kneeling are spitting in whiteys face and that’s what its always been about.

They can’t have it both ways. Either it’s against the US, our Flag and our anthem, or, it’s anti-Trump. Remember what happened to those public figures who dissed 0bama? Remember that rodeo clown who wore an 0bama mask?

When billionaire owners pay millionaire players to play a game, you would think that the players’ personal expression be suppressed - they wear “uniforms” after all. Why can’t political opinions or “issues expression” be negotiated in their lucrative contracts? The players’ juvenile oubursts needs to be “brought to heel” to borrow a phrase from Hillary Clinton.

I’m loving every minute of this!

The more insane the Felon League behaves, the more fans they’ll lose. I hope it goes belly up by the end of the season as stadiums empty out and audiences on TV turn it off.

Absolutely correct! This same crowd would put entertainment above and beyond God and country. These are just as guilty. As the poet Milton wrote, “they also serve who stand and wait.”

It was just a quick edit, hopefully a more talented Freeper can run with the idea.

I don’t think charter schools will solve the problem. What NEEDS to change is the prevalent attitude in urban ghetto culture that being educated is attributed to being “white” and not actually something to be desired or striven for under any circumstances.

“Trump knows Alinsky better than so called Alinsky disciples.”

Yeah, President Trump probably actually read it unlike most of the idiot leftist lemmings.

The NFL is full of conceit and pride. Proverbs 16:18 - Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Why is the story. It, “thousands get up and walk out of stadium as players pull this stunt.”

They are worse. They are the participants in this shame about whom trump was speaking.

They are allowing it. They’re watching it and they enable it

My father was a great college football player sought by the pros (turned them down as bad career/financial choice) watched football all his life. Took us to games.

He was a Marine, too, but that’s beside the point.

He would have walked out. Not a word. We would have followed and figured it out before getting to the car

Out

He’d be the first to say it shouldn’t take a Marine

And it would have been turned off the tv the day the 49ers and goddell allowed that thug to get away with this. As it has been in my house

What is wrong with people?

Agreed. I’m glad Trump is outspoken about the disrespect shown to our country by those who have benefited the most. He has kicked over the hornets nest, though, and it will be very interesting to see how rjit will all “play out” (no pun intended). Why anyone who loves this country would spend one nickel or five minutes on the NFL is beyond me.

“War against, tradition, the flag, history, God. The NFL is marked for the END.”

Nothing is off limits to democrats anymore, nothing. Boy scouts, girl scouts, restrooms,Conderate flag and monuments, American flag and monuments, Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson memorials,Columbus statues, Sam Houston...everything is fair game. Methodical destruction of the soul of America. Next will be the Viet Nam wall,Iwo Jima memorial, etc. Where the hell is any government to put an end to this shit? If the people try and stop it the freaken government will try and put an end to us!

“These thugs need to be fired and go to a country more in line with their beliefs”

Unfortunately, they are already in it.
