The NFL

I agree with you as well Joe. If it was a Canadian disrespecting our flag during a game I'd be furious as well--regardless of that jerks rights.

Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada, at 11am I pulled over with a few others today (moment of silence) it was pretty cool thing to see/do.... Protesting during the Anthem is just disrespectful...

If you want to make a point, do it on your own time and dime.

They have the right to speak up but don't do it by dishonoring the flag of our country - I have the right to criticize the way they are doing it - a lot of good men died fighting under that flag and it should be respected - there are other ways and times to protest not while the national anthem is being played - if it wasn't for football most of these guys would be flipping burgers

A lot of guys and gals fought and died so you have the freedom to choose to kneel or not, have you thought about that?

They are not protesting the anthem no matter how many times the ill informed say they are. This is on their dime. Guys have been cut for this. NFL players have the least security of any of the major sports leagues. It would be easy to stand and be quiet. The questions from the media would just be: "Hey, you sucked today in front of 80 thousand fans and millions on tv. Talk about that."

Would you like them to protest in their living rooms (like most of us do sitting on our butts complaining about the hatchet job another "star" does on the anthems)? It's supposed to be uncomfortable. It should make people think about what's going on. The evidence so far shows however, that few are.

Hey Dythb' - are you gonna get rid of that quote you have at the bottom of your posts since it has been determined that this bum Louis C. K. is nothing but a sex pervert - a scumbag - lowdown liberal - and a rapist - was wondering -

[kickingfrog]

You'd be hard pressed to post any of your links if you held yourself to the same standard.

Masturbating in front of another person male or female does not make you a rapist, you must have the wrong dictionary.

Maybe he should run for a seat in the American senate!

Yea. I suppose you are correct. I should change my signature with Louis CK's revelations on the weekend. Hopefully, you will also be amending your support for President Trump because one should always be judged by one's morals and standards.

However, your point about my signature has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of this thread, which you started btw. You don't like the way they are protesting? That is fine but you still seem to fail to understand they are exercising their rights enshrined in the US constitution. If you don't like that, then simply move to a country where freedom of expression is strictly controlled. Countries like China, North Korea, Cuba, Syria, Burma, or Turkmenistan know how to silence government critics. Perhaps one of those countries would be better suited for you to live in.

Good call Dyth.
