Liberal media outraged after 'racist' NFL adopts ‘un-American’ policy to combat national anthem...

I want to set the record straight. I am a marine (59-63) Weather you stand or kneel it is still a sign of respect. Thats what counts. Protesting is an American right as long as we don't damage property. I am also a Vietnam veteran. I was also in the army, I was in boot camp at parris island Now if the person who kneeled had burned the flag instead, I would have been pissed. I know the difference between medics and corpman, they both do the same job. I completed Boot camp and ITR' so I know what you are talking about. Your first sentence pissed me off. You have your opinion I have mine. I was with the 205th ord. Plt Ammo in vietnam we had two men wounded and one ammo dump blown up. I was their in in 65-66. Semper Fi.

While I do see what you are trying to say Sir, I also see the fact that this is a form of freedom of speech which no company can stop you from with out legal recourse! They are not sitting on the bench, they are taking a knee to bring light to social injustice that goes on everyday in this country! The inherent flaw in your logic is when you bring up the neo-Nazi comparison. The protest the players are involved in is not a symbolism of hate in anyway shape or form! It is just to bring attention to the social inequalities of minority groups in America that’s all!! It has not one thing to do with any race superiority!!!

Also sir the issue with the Confederate statues is that the confederacy was founded on slavery! It says it right in the confederate constitution, as well as the book written by the confederate Vice President! The biggest issue that a lot of people have with them is the fact that the overwhelming majority of these statues where put around 1950 during the height of Jim Crow in former confederate states!!
