What's happening is actually much more profound. These idiot football players are in opposition to Trump, but the way they're doing it also puts them in opposition to the flag. Effectively, they're handing Trump the flag.

This is why you shouldn't try to be a thought leader when you get paid to scramble your brains on a weekly basis.

Remember, they are claiming it's not a sign of disrespect to the flag or the US but the nigs playing in England did it too but then they all stood for God Save the Queen. Fuck 'em.

Actions speak louder then words. They are doing something disrespectful to a symbol of the country (flag or song take your pick), and saying it is for some cause. They have a lot to say about the cause but few if any of them have any actions that seem to draw the media attention that their disrespect does.

Should someone tell them it's the same melody as "America?" Nah, they're too stupid to understand.

The protest has always been retarded for that reason, simply replace Trump with police. The original point was supposedly that cops kill blacks. So to protest cops Kaepernick refused to honor the flag. Rather than claiming police behavior was dishonoring the flag, he connected the police to the flag. As a result, instead of talking negatively about the police like he wanted, he started a negative discussion about himself acting unAmerican. Then a bunch of other imbeciles started joining him proving none of them are capable of logical thought or effective use of iconography.

Fuck yes. You said it perfectly. The cops that act out of line are just as disrespectful to the country as the nigs taking a knee. First time ive heard someone else put it this way and it couldn't be anymore right

I actually thought about this tonight.

A better way for him to have made his point would have been to say that he was kneeling as respect for his fellow Americans who lost their lives to police brutality.

But it wouldn't be race baiting or anti-American enough.

They're just fucking mouth breathers anyway.

This needs to be memed into existence. Pictures of normal people with a knee on the ground and the single word "resist" should just about do it.

You would think that when you do a jewgle image search they would understand the terms "man" and "kneel" but that is sadly not the case.

I was left with this piece of shit.

You mean how a citizen would stand up for his country but a slave would kneel before those standing?

Imagine a giant coliseum where people gather for entertainment and those that are the entertainment take a knee due to one person. Not sure if I'm describing Rome, or the NFL.

Kaepernick is on his knee for a lie. In America if you were murdered it's fifty fifty it was a black male that did the deed even though they are 7% of the population.

This. They need to figure out their own communities before they start preaching from atop the coffins of all the young black men who kill each other for no fucking reason.
