RE: This NFL Stuff Made Me Realize American Ideals Are All Sorts of Backwards

in #life7 years ago

While I respect anyone's right to say what's on their mind it feels these "protests" during the anthem are only angering people who want to respect the flag and what it means to them. Noone would argue America has its problems but every nation does. The place isn't that bad if someone can make millions of dollars to play a sport.. The players have so many other avenues to share their opinions it doesn't have to be during the anthem. Noones even sure what they're trying to prove or what the message is are we? Is it police brutality towards people of color? If that's the case that's kind of a biased predjudice by grouping all those men and women as all bad isnt it? Is it because of Donald Trump saying that the players are unpatriotic? Is it because they don't like America? It just appears disrespectful to me so their cause isn't even being heard regardless of the point

Yep, that pretty much sums it up!
