I was not talking about Kaepernick. I was responding to a post.

I think Kaepernick has a right to protest, but as I said in a later post it's a stupid protest that won't do a damn thing. He's protesting what? It keeps changing. Why not just say he hates America and will never stand for the anthem? Because his reasons aren't going to change over what he's doing.

No parking, concession, or sports flags, hats etc. money.

Those at home home should refuse to watch the game and let the advertisers KNOW why.

MONEY TALKS!

There is a time and place for protesting.

This is NOT IT!

If I was their boss, the team owner, I would dock their pay and suspend them.

unfortunately you would be fined or fired because it is not required for them to stand for the anthem.

In there eyes it's a privilege to be raised in a white home. How dare he disrespect the white race like that.

bad idea to do this on 9/11

Taking a knee in this manner as protest - I consider it to be a bow to obama and his plan for the fundamental transformation of America.

There is one race that celebrates their skin tone.

And it is not celebrate your whiteness.

HTH.

We only celebrate our skin as a means of loving ourselves. Better than hating our skin tone as we've been conditioned to do, right?
