Or in a classroom under supervision of a teacher.

Did you support Kim Davis when she refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples? That was also a "workplace protest."

"Kneeling", or going down on one knee is a sign of respect. When a man proposes marriage, many get down on one knee as a sign of respect.

These folks have it all wrong.

As far as a young child seeming to protest, that is coming from the parents.

Until then, we're no better than 3rd world dictatorships.


The door is open don't let it hit you in the ass on the way out. Flights leave daily away from the US.

The fact that you decry "Big-govt leftists" in the first sentence is almost absurdly ironic. You want government to enforce loyalty in the classroom. You don't want small government at all - you just want government that enforces your ideas.

Now, that may feel like small government to you - after all, as long as government is on your side and reinforces your way of thinking, you'll never feel them to be a hindrance.
Well said

I am sure he would grow up to be the new generation of SJW.

Yes, most of the right-wing extremists here supported her, just like they support Trump doing idiotic things.

This kneeling thing during the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem is on par for what's coming. As we all clearly see. the hard left is pushing it's values on everyone, i.e., gay marriage, transgenders, removing God from society, lawlessness, etc. Rebellion is everywhere nowadays and leading up to the introduction of a certain world leader known as the antichrist, one who opposes the values of Jesus. And as the Holy Bible tells, the days are soon coming that if you don't show allegiance to this world leader, you'll be put to death; the signs are everywhere and it's all recorded in the Book of Revelation. Don't take what's happening to society lightly.

Rebellion is nothing new stop acting like it is. Gods forbid people stand up to the government I have a feeling if it was to you Trump loyalist you would make him our king and take away peoples rights to vote.
God has never been a party of this country other then you bible thumpers pushing him on everyone, your just upset that people have out grown their need for what you believe. IF the antichrist is real IF then he's sitting in the WH now & you all put him there.


Don't like people being free then move to North Korea or some place similar.

It is not a freedom issue, it is a corporate workplace conduct issue. They are free to kneel, until their employers tells them not to as we will stop watching. Very simple. Can you understand that? Probably not.
