Umm, you ARE aware that a Steelers player named Villanueva, a former Army infantry officer and Ranger, chose to stand for the anthem yesterday?
Ty again.
I think that's his point: Republicans are going to have to choose between whether to support or condemn the patriot/anchor baby. Their tiny heads might burst on this one.
Conversation should be a two way street. Calling people bigot is a sure way to shut down speech or end a conversation. I don't think this is what most people wanted.
I agree. Calling people sons of ******* also doesn't show a willingness to listen.
So, if you don't like the president, you can disrespect the national anthem?
So if Trump just lied to the people, and went to the shores of foreign nations and called the American people a pack of racists, bigots and misogynists, like Obama did, then this old man would be fine with that, as long as he talked pretty.
I bet you would be hard-pressed to find a majority of veterans from the WW2 era who would have said they were fighting so you can have the freedom to express your hatred of America. Unless an injustice is taken place (and Trump as president is not an injustice), people should follow the rules in a public arena which in this case means removing your hat or helmet and standing for the anthem. Just common respect. If I go to a person's house in like Japan, I would remove my shoes because that's their rules and traditions. Even if I think they are wrong.
This was not about making a statement. It was about hating Trump. Disgusting!
It had nothing to down with Trump until he inserted himself into the situation because he sees everything as a personal attack on him. It's a fragile ego thing.
the fact is an anchor baby is a child born in America to someone that is here illegally. Alejandro was born here to people that were in America legally.
BS,
I bet most anchor babies are born from people that came to the US on tourist or student visas
Making them temporarily legal, just like Alejandro Villanueva's parents
Sorry guy. i didn't know that was. I can't retract it or i would. I thought you were calling me a bigot.
Either one of you is a bigot. You are just two posters with strong opinions. Nothing wrong with it.
and this post is not directed at you. The veterans stereotypes aren’t always accurate, either. There are liberals in the military, who are brought up around and comfortable with firearms. There are conservatives who have never handled a weapon and have no desire to. A person’s politics rarely fit into a neat label.
It looks like we all like to use veterans to make a point, but this whole protest thing has really nothing to do with the veterans. lol

So trump calling players "SOB's" is Okay to you then,that's not disgusting???You're a hypocrite!
They don't know what they are kneeling about, they don't know what they want it to change because they don't know why they are doing it but they think they are some sort of Malcolm X figure fighting the system
So they kneel on the pitch/stage and pretend they're the same as the civil rights activists of the 60s despite being the polar opposite.
