Supposedly these guys make millions . Why can't they take a little and go in the neighborhoods where there is so much shooting and killing black on black , face it thats what it is and start up some kind of boys club where they have a safe place ? That would be so much more effective than disrespecting the national anthem . Taking a knee or sitting ain't going to do no good but in church . Let them put their money where their knee is . They care so much prove it . Help those coming up who are not so fortunate to help themselves....GET OFF YOUR KNEE (***) AND DO SOMETHING REAL.....

As a veteran, when the anthem is played i stop what i am doing take my cap off and stand w/ my hand over my heart . ( yes at home too). Same when taps is played. stand at attention. when i am at a parade and the colors pass i salute.
Do expect everyone to do the same? No. But i don't approve of anyone calling attention to themselves during the anthem either.

Ditto. As a fellow veteran, I pause when the anthem is played on tv, but I don't stand and put my hand over my heart, but if i'm wearing a hat, I do take it off. I reserve the standing and placing my hand over my heart for when I am actually in the presence of the flag, rather than looking at digital pixels. And yes, when taps are played at vet's funerals, I place my hand over my heart. I've always been taught that to salute, one has to be on active duty, but perhaps I am wrong. Since Alphaman is the one that stirred this up, I ask him, "are you a vet?" If not, how can you judge those that are? Just wondering.

You people have surprisingly been steered away from the original point. This isn't about you, it's about the NFL players disrespecting the anthem and the flag. Alphaman cleverly got you guys trying to defend your own actions. Nice move alphaman.

The rules were changed a few years back . Now any veteran or service member in uniform or out can can stand at attention and salute the flag and the national anthem and the playing of taps .

Thx eman, I did not know that.

How would you destroy the most powerful nation on Earth or weaken it to the point where it could easily be conquered without firing a shot? How's this for a plan:

Control the message(liberal media)- check

Remove morality/Christianity from public square to the point where right and wrong does not exist anymore- check

Destroy the nuclear family-check

Send all the good jobs overseas to demoralize the people and make them dependent on government handouts for survival-check



Eliminate the borders to allow vastly different
cultures including mid-evil Muslim barbarians to flood in, do not require them to assimilate- check

Create massive violence and unrest in the streets with paid anarchists- check

Tear down hallowed symbols of the founders and make the citizens understand just how evil they were- check

Teach the confused, demoralized godless citizens that everything they've always thought was right is wrong and anything traditional is evil and racist. In fact people should be ashamed and feel guilty for having the audacity to even be born white. Every thing you say and do is inherently racist so shut up- check

Create a global crisis that can only be solved by a global government(climate change)- check

Crush any sense of national pride and patriotism that remains by dishonering and disrespecting the country's flag, anthem, traditions, language, religion or anything else that may still be holding them together-check

Disarm the citizens after you have convinced them that guns are evil and only the government can properly protect and provide for them- almost check

Occupy the country using UN "peacekeepers" for violating some obscure international law or treaty- almost there, 10-20 years away

They've torn down Washington, Jefferson, Madison, etc?

You people have lost your minds.

Ever heard of "Take em down NOLA"? They got Robert E Lee taken down as well as four others... Now they are going after President Andrew Jackson in Jackson square. Do you think Mitch Landrieu will give in? I do.

Also founder statues are being vandalized all across the country and pundits on CNN and MSNBC are calling for removal of Washington and Jefferson. Open your eyes man. They will harp and harp on this and it may take a couple years but they will get thier way.

And for those that think this is tin foil hat stuff, ask yourself this question: All of the things mentioned above are happening (except for the last two). Is it more plausible that they are happening randomly and by coincidence? or are these things being orchestrated to achieve a goal?

To protest our national anthem for ANY reason is out right treason in my opinion. Most of these over paid athletes I?m sure had family that bled on the battle fields so they can have the right to openly voice opinions and protest. But to disrespect our anthem is to disrespect so many that gave their lives for this country. They should be sent to North Korea.

My team played Thursday night, and bow season opens Sunday. Only reason I won't be watching is because I'll be hunting.
