PRESIDENT Trump is absolutely on target about the kind of people they probably are, but he didn't need to go into all the rhetoric about them being fired.

Can you make a citation of specific evidence that Donald Trump is racist or sexist?

My problem was the use of the words SOB .
Growing up and now that means you called my mother the b word . Yea insult me don't bring my mom into it
Yea I can't stand the knees. The very thought turns my stomach. Pay some respect to the flag .My fathers casket
was draped with that flag . So were many others.
Blessings

Judging from the spoilt children's reaction, it's time for us to get the NFL back on target.

If they don't like America, then don't play professional football, because that is for Americans.

Narcissism is being so busy being yourself you don't even have time to see anyone else.

You're so busy spouting off the propaganda, you never took the time to find out if it's true.

He is racist how? Facts to support that please? Do you watch movies,read magazines,watch tv? So you support them and the way they live? A little hypocritical don't you think? Trump isn't a born again Christian so he thinks and lives the same way the world does.Why don't you pray for him and that the VP will have a chance to witness to him that he could become saved?

He's insane? Are you a doctor? Thats quite a charge considering you're not qualified to make that diagnosis. All I hear here is talking points of the liberal leftists.

And as for how he treats women? I'd love to be treated so "poorly!" There are no glass ceilings in his businesses, the women are paid equal to the men, listened to as much as the men, and are leaders like the men. I want that kind of poor treatment as a woman. lol

actually, mr. trump speaks a lot of truth without worrying about being p.c.

people need to learn ( relearn ) that being offended is not a crime.

A buddy of mine who served in Afghanistan had this to say about it.
"We fought for everyone's freedoms and if you think people should be forced to stand for the anthem when you don't understand what Freedom means."
America was founded on protest and Americans have a civic duty to protest corruption and blatant misuse of authority. When a police officer can unlawfully arrest a nurse while she's on duty and face no consequences then something is clearly wrong with America

The only time you see any of those whiners doing anything but taking a knee is when the media spotlights them. Where are they in setting up charitable organizations or visiting people in need? They aren't there. Some of them make millions... they could drop a few hundred thousand if they don't want to get out and actually DO something productive.

Theirs is an Empty Protest of blustery rhetoric. It is just Showcasing for TV time. They are overgrown brats, whining just to be noticed.

Donald Trump was the first man to win the presidential election with a FEMALE campaign manager. Donald Trump was the first man to assign a woman to oversee a major New York City construction site. Donald Trump took the same stand that President Bill Clinton took regarding illegal immigration into the United States of America; Clinton received a standing ovation and Trump received the label of racist.

The National Anthem is a symbol that represents our God given right to ask what it means to be American and which of our American values we value most. It is not sacrosanct.

The actual anthem was written when we were under attack by the British who wa
nted, once again to bring us under their control, who disrespected our freedoms and abilities to act as free and independent individuals as well as a free and independent nation.

There is a reason the First Amendment comes first. It was our Founding Father's most important value.


"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."


Kneeling is simply an act that petitions for a "redress of grievances". It is, therefore one of the most cherished rights and as such it should be respected.


What is true of Congress should also be true of NFL owners, corporations, or any local, state, or Federal institution, including the Executive Branch.

Athletes shouldn't protest because they make Millions? I don't even know how anyone can say that.
#1. Those athletes aren't saying that they are being oppressed FINANCIALLY. So why does their income make a difference. Oh wait, it's because that helps to deflect from the ACTUAL reason, which is....
#2. Those athletes are protesting not just for themselves, but for black and brown people whose voices could NOT be heard. You don't/won't hear MY voice. But you WILL hear theirs.
#3. ABSOLUTELY NOBODY FOUGHT AND DIED SO WE CAN STAND FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM. NOBODY.

That's not freedom. That's compulsory obedience. Like North Korea. What our soldiers fought for, was the freedom to be able to express ourselves. Even if that expression is through protest. THAT'S what our FIRST AMENDMENT guarantees us. You don't have to AGREE with why we protest. (but if you can't agree that there shouldn't be police brutality against minorities, or racial oppression, you're legitimately and delibrately blind), but we do indeed have that freedom.


Those athletes are asking our country to do better. And they're doing it peacefully. And you still have more of a problem with the fact they're protesting without violence, than the reasons why they are protesting. What does that say about YOU?



You can't demand that people protest non-violently and peacefully (especially if you were silent or made excuses when white supremacists carried torches, attacked people and ran cars into crowds of people barely a month ago, in fact some called that freedom of speech), and when they DO protest non violently and peacefully, you say "Wait not like that. I'm still uncomfortable".


What you REALLY mean, is that you don't want us to protest at all. As long as it isn't happening to them folks don't care.

Oh you absolutely have the freedom to act like a **edited**. And we have a right to stop watching and put them out of business. Having the freedom to act like a stunned jerk doesn't mean you take it as a challenge. Sports is sports and politics is politics. But if they want to make fools of themselves its their loss.People are tuning out so the jokes on them. People fought and died,were maimed for our rights,yes,but a real man would stand during the anthem and honor those who fought for his freedoms. We have made these idiots heroes and taught kids to emulate them,when the real heroes lay their lives on the line every day for us. Ridiculous!

Respectfully, can you tell me specifically what they are protesting about? Voices are not being heard how or about what?
