Taking a knee is a position of servitude and submission.
My opinion | 9/26/2017 | By Laz A. Mataz

Posted on 09/26/2017 7:58:47 AM PDT by Lazamataz

Historically, taking a knee has always been an act of submission. One took a knee when the King entered the room. One took a knee when being knighted. One took a knee during parts of a religious ceremony.

I am delighted that such people as Sheila Jackson Lee and the various players of the NFL are taking knees. They are acknowledging that they are inferior to us, and that they are subservient.

Thanks, folks. I mean, it was obvious already, but I like that you acknowledge it.

They don’t have to kneel to the flag and anthem implying worship. Standing would be fine. The flag is a secular symbol not a religious symbol.

Mark Steyn’s column was the best I’ve read on this, but your post is the second best. LOL!

Can you say Colin Kaepernick & his Muslim girlfriend initiated the kneeling protest?

SECOND best? I will not settle for less than NUMBER ONE!

Hell, I’m so good, I want to be known as a BIG FAT ZERO!

Which is, of course, before one.

The first time Kaeper did it that occurred to me. What is he submitting to? How is kneeling a protest of anything?

The issue is, what exactly are they kneeling about in the first place? This whole thing goes back to Ferguson and the whole “hands up, don’t shoot” fabrication. These people are propagandizing as many American people as they can into believing the narrative that cops are deliberately and indiscriminately shooting down innocent young black men all over the country, which is utter nonsense.

This weekend dramatically exposed the NFL’s support for BLM and to show they’re not going to stand for a flag that represented such injustice. Make it be known the NFL supports cop killers of BLM and the violent thugs of ANTIFA who are also connected to BLM.

This would be like the NFL in the 60s/70s supporting black panthers or weather underground or something like that.

The NFL is now supporting or in unity with two groups who are just as violent and radical.

Yeah, it was pathetic. Westeros would have been much better off under Stannis.

Do you know why George R.R. Martin cannot Tweet?

It is because he killed all 140 characters.

Exactly right. The person in the kneeling position is much better positioned for beheading. And for performing fellatio, too. I’m waiting for someone with the skills to Photo-shop NFL players kneeling and the ISIS executioner dressed in all black with his sword cocked.

Doesn’t ISIS make their victims kneel before beheading them?

Those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it

Beheading of King Charles I in 1649.

Yes, let’s start/continue with the meme that The Don has already got the left kneeling before him.

LMAO Laz!

Lest we forget, keep reminding others: the Saintly Colin Kapernick wore socks decorated with pigs wearing police uniforms when he first started this F***tardery!!!!

We need to keep bringing up the socks thing over and over again every time: Kapernick and his thug black friends in the NFL are first and foremost anti-police. They are also racist traitors to the United States, but it’s the BLM hate and terrorist acts are what got the ball rolling (aided and abetted by Barack Hussein Obama).

That is just like bowing, say for example, to another head of state. Can you remember who used to do that?
