Your NFL clownshow has followed Colin Kaepernick, and Kaepernick admires Che Guevara, the man who hated blacks:
It's not about any one person. This all started before Kaepernick. Perhaps we could note that Trump said he admires Putin and is against this. Does that change things?
Kneeling has always been known as a sign of respect. Always.
On mars? In the sewers? Certainly not on the surface of planet Earth for as long as national anthems have existed.
Hell, it's even enshrined in Federal law that you're supposed to stand per 36 U.S. Code § 301:
(b)Conduct During Playing.—During a rendition of the national anthem—
(1) when the flag is displayed—
(A) individuals in uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the anthem and maintain that position until the last note;
(B) members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute in the manner provided for individuals in uniform; and
(C) all other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, and men not in uniform, if applicable, should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart; and
(2) when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed.
There's a reason the law says nothing about kneeling, mostly because you'd be a moron to think taking a knee while everyone else stands is showing respect
When OJ was acquitted everybody knew he was guilty, but pretty much all black people were happy that whites "were getting a taste of that kind of justice"
That's pretty much the attitude that carries to this day forward
Exactly. And I'm not some rural hillbilly talking here - I'm an inner-city raised, college educated white boy who has had countless interactions with non-whites and all too often this is the case.
Again, prove it. Show me where groups of black people are celebrating when a white person is unjustly killed by police. Show me where groups of black people are making excuses for when police unjustly kill a white person. Show me where groups of black people are blaming white victims when police unjustly kill them.
The closest you'll find is when the white woman was killed in Minnesota and people were rattling off flashcard responses that yall tell black people.
So please, prove me wrong. Show me where black people support police killing whites unjustly.

Except this white man, who thought then and thinks now he's innocent of murder.
Stephen Paddock commits the deadliest mass shooting this country has ever seen and everyone has moved on.
Yet, the hypocrites can't stop talking about black athletes kneeling.
What does that tell you?
"What does that tell you?"
That as humans we ARE CAPABLE OF DOING MORE THEN ONE THING AT A TIME.
Of course there ARE exceptions. Maybe you CAN'T!
MANY of us think showing respect to your country IS important.
