I think taking a knee BEFORE the anthem and standing DURING the anthem is not disrespecting the flag or nation. Seems like a good compromise for feeling there are problems but still honoring and respecting the flag.
Agree.
JJ just found a way to have his cake and eat it too
Really? What idea are they showing "unity" for when they take a knee? Please give me an outline. Should we all join the SJW's for a mandatory moment every time the anthem is about to be played? In the interest of "balance" of course?
Many people watch sports to escape from day-to-day problems, not to have them gratuitously shoved in their faces. If the NFL now means I have to watch a bunch of whiners of whom I get a belly full enough already all week long, then I pass take a knee.
They supported those who disrespect the flag by taking a knee, then “respected” the flag by standing (but not properly rendering respect).
Sorry, but both aspects scream to me that they need none of my money, time, or respect.
