National Anthem...please no kneel down

#55

To me it seems that this whole "constitutional right" thing gets abused quite often. At the same time I believe people get too worked up about our flag. It's cloth. It's symbolic of much more.. but in the end.. it's cloth. I see too many people threatening violence over people disrespecting a piece of cloth.

 

This is coming from a veteran. I have seen SOOOO many gung-ho veterans saying "I fought for that flag, my friend died for that flag.. blah blah". I just don't get it. I didn't serve a flag. I served a country and worked to ensure freedom for all. With that said, I do believe there are better ways to get a point across than willfully disrespecting someone, an ideal, or a symbol. These players could donate to their favorite BLM charity and it would make a bigger difference.
