Well saidHe's right. I'm one of those veterans who made a career out of the military and I am not offended by anyone taking a knee.
Why? I swore an oath 5 different times, to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. That means I support and defend what is contained in that document, and 2 of those things are free speech and the right to peaceful protest. The fact that people feel secure enough in their rights to use them means that my service wasn't in vain, and the Constitution is still the law of the land.
As a friend of mine once said "I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
It may be his right since we do have lots of freedom here, BUT it IS disrespectful in my opinion. And saying so is MY right.
Your friend is an idiot.As a friend of mine once said "I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
Of course you don't think kneeling is a bad thing...you supported the magic Kenyan's kneeling in front of Saudi Arabia's king.....you support anything that doesn't support your own nation....you have issues my friend...especially for a self proclaimed vet....This vet says it is not disrepectful.....and I'll guess the vet who suggested kneeling to Colin K. also doesn't think it's disrespectful.
He's right.
It was a vet who asked Kaepernick to kneel out of respect and not sit on the bench.
Kaepernick LISTENED, thanked him and began kneeling.

Who are you calling a moron, Kaepernick for kneeling, or the Seattle Seahawk player who is a former Green Beret that told him to kneel?
A reminder that an Army vet suggested Colin Kaepernick kneel during the anthem
“I expressed to him, maybe there’s a different way of demonstrating, where you’re showing more respect for those who laid down their lives for what that flag and anthem stand for,” Boyer said of his conversation with Kaepernick. “I suggested kneeling, because people kneel to pray; we’ll kneel in front of a fallen brother’s grave.”
Kaepernick, and other players, have been called “unpatriotic” for kneeling during the anthem, but the idea came from a man who very clearly loves this country and has served to protect the freedoms that it provides its citizens, including the freedom to protest in a peaceful manner.
