Not that I agree with what he did/does (but I support his right to do it), but what did Kaepernick do that didn't respect the Constitution? I don't recall a line that says we have to stand for the national anthem or even that we have to pledge allegiance.

Yeah, I was off base there. After thinking it over, I'll clarify that he isn't doing something patriotic. His recent actions don't make him a patriot.

Yeah, agreed there, however don't forget that 'Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.' - Misattributed to Thomas Jefferson, but still a good quote
