Spot the difference competition - Confederates v. Kneelers

NFL players: “I live in the nation with the most freedom and economic opportunity on earth. I am a multiple millionaire. My wife and kids are protected by the the most powerful military the world has ever seen. I think I won’t stand for the National Anthem to protest...whatever.”
 
Ah... but here's the problem.

Forced patriotism at work? Really?

Oh, oh, they didn't used to come out for the anthem. They came out for the anthem because the US govt PAID THE FUCKING NFL to do it.

On WORK TIME.

Really?

Appropriate? No.

See, here's the easiest solution. Get rid of the national anthem from a game.

In Europe, you hear the national anthems when THE COUNTRY is playing. Not when private companies are playing each other. They don't have the problem the NFL has.

It's all about making the right decisions.

You want the anthem played in your stadium before your games, then you have to put up with people deciding to kneel or stand or whatever before that anthem. You don't want POLITICS in your stadium, then TAKE THE POLITICAL SONG OUT OF THE DAMN GAME.
You don't like it, don't sign the fucking contract....It's as simple as that.
Ummm, the NFL isn’t making players stand during the NFL. Tough shit if you don’t like that.

Why would NFL teams fly a white flag before the game even starts?

Kneeling during the Anthem is respecting them. They fought and died for Americans’ freedoms, like kneeling in protest during the National Anthem.
It's showing a hatred for America, I see why you loons support it.

Nope, it’s doing no such thing. It’s an expression of freedom, which is what American servicemen fought and died to preserve.

These are the sort of people who are telling the kneelers that they're disrespecting the US armed forces, they're disrespecting the flag, they're disrespecting the anthem.

On the other hand you have the kneelers.

The Confederate troops committed Treason. The US Constitution is quite clear on what Treason is, and the Confederacy committed treason and every soldier who took up arms to FIGHT THE SOLDIERS OF THE US ARMED FORCES committed treason.

Now, flying the Confederate flag shows no respect to the members of the US armed forces. The Confederates killed members of the US armed forces.

Flying the Confederate flag shows no respect to the flag of the United States. It says "we don't want to be a part of that flag, we don't want our star on that flag".

Kneeling in a protest does not disrespect the US flag. The US flag exists because it represents the States, the government, the Constitution. A Constitution which protects freedom to criticize the government.

The kneelers have killed zero US Armed Forces personnel.
The Confederates killed 110,000 people in battle and 25,000 to 30,000 in Confederate prisons.

How is it that the people who fly the flag of treason, the flag of killing US military personnel can turn around and tell those who kneel, that they're disrespecting the anthem and the flag?
That argument don't fly when the kneelers disrespected the flag and military by kneeling over seas but honoring the flag of another country instead. One that many died fighting for our freedom from.

They were protesting the US government. The flag is a symbol of the US govt.

Why the hell would they protest the UK flag, when they don't have a problem with the UK government?

You're really struggling to find any old excuse, aren't you?

Did the Confederates commit treason as stated by the US Constitution?

Did the Confederates kill an estimated 140,000 US soldiers?

Did the kneelers kill any US soldiers?

the kneelers are traitors for disrespecting our flag and soldiers overseas.

Well you think this. That's fine. However actually the definition of treason doesn't quite back you up there.

However the Confederates were TREASONOUS and to fly the Confederate flag in support of such treason is.... what?

"Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."

Now, the kneelers aren't levying war against the US govt. The Confederates did.

The kneelers aren't adhering to the US's enemies, nor giving them aid nor comfort. The Confederates did.

First of all what liberals refer to as the “Confederate Flag” isn’t actually the Confederate Flag. It’s the Virginia Battle Flag and is considered a part of Southern heritage and pride.

Either way, flying it isn’t disrespectful to the US Military. It’s only disrespectful to snowflakes. Is the Union Jack offensive to you and the US military? After all, how many Americans died fighting the British? What about people that fly the Mexican flag, do you get upset at all about that? Is it treason to fly it? After all we were at war with them before too.

They are free to express their hatred of America on their own time. When they are in uniform on a NFL field in a stadium, they are being paid to do a job and represent their team. Do you think most NFL owners want their players to disrespect their audience and source of revenue?

Last year broke a record for the most revenue ever. But you're right in the sense that team owners don't want the negative attention; which is why they changed the rules this year, allowing players to remain inside the locker room during the National Anthem if they don't want to stand on the sidelines.

Revenue barley edged the previous year despite ratings drops. They could had made a lot more money if it weren’t for the kneelers.

I like how you refuse to answer any of my questions and have to completely change the goal posts. When have people gone to military cemeteries and flown any of these flags? Your whole argument is built on your own fantasy of these things happening. You take people in some random place flying the Virginia Battle flag as the equivalent of them marching to a cemetery and displaying a Confederate or Nazi flag for the soul purpose of disrespecting the US military.


By the way, do these so-called pro-Confederate people kneel during the US anthem, or do ever burn the US flag at their protests?

If the flag represents all that to them then why the F are they protesting it? If these multi millionaires have something to protest about the police or whatever they are against, why don't they use their millions to create a platform from which to say what they have to say? It's their right yet they choose to take some ambiguous route which confuses the shit out of people who really arent sure what these guys are all about. Its easier for them to kneel and not really say anything, and this is why they open themselves to criticism... no, not from people in your small sample size waving confederate flags. thats a pretty weak comparison

How is it that the people who fly the flag of treason, the flag of killing US military personnel can turn around and tell those who kneel, that they're disrespecting the anthem and the flag?



"Kneeling in a protest does not disrespect the US flag. The US flag exists because it represents the States, the government, the Constitution. A Constitution which protects freedom to criticize the government. "

If the flag represents all that to them then why the F are they protesting it? If these multi millionaires have something to protest about the police or whatever they are against, why don't they use their millions to create a platform from which to say what they have to say? It's their right yet they choose to take some ambiguous route which confuses the shit out of people who really arent sure what these guys are all about. Its easier for them to kneel and not really say anything, and this is why they open themselves to criticism... no, not from people in your small sample size waving confederate flags. thats a pretty weak comparison

Do you think because there's a Constitution that it automatically gets obeyed?

How many laws instantly get obeyed? No, you need something else behind it.

People not carrying out the laws, people doing things wrong, this leads to protest.

They open themselves to criticism because they say something other people don't like.

That's what a democracy should be.

But some people are trying to silence them.

Why would you disrespect them?
Kneeling during the Anthem is respecting them. They fought and died for Americans’ freedoms, like kneeling in protest during the National Anthem.
It's showing a hatred for America, I see why you loons support it.
Nope, it’s doing no such thing. It’s an expression of freedom, which is what American servicemen fought and died to preserve.



They are free to be judged by their actions, or their "speech" if you will.


And they are anti-American assholes. THe whole fucking league.
Who cares what racists think about them? :dunno:
Lol, the race card. Thanks for admitting you lost.
