Your military service does not mean you get to say it's OK to disrespect the flag...

Thank you for showing your ignorance of what makes this country great. Thank you also for showing your Nazi view.

Disrespecting the flag and the national anthem are not what make this country great. That's nothing but leftwing idiocy.

Hitler thought forcing patriotism would make Germany great again. How'd that work out?

Start saluting the flag, and the first thing you know we'll be building contration camps and shoving Jews into ovens!

If only you morons could look at yourselves objectively.

I am looking at forced patriotism quite objectively. You on the other hand are reacting to peaceful protest with an extreme emotional over-response.

Football players taking a knee are not protesting the flag, America, the military or baseball, hot dogs and apple freaking pie. They are protesting racial injustice, period.

The reason the First Amendment included the right to protest, was so that people could protest against the government. The 1A basically forbids the US Federal Govt from stopping people protesting them. This was done so that politics could be freely spoken about, so that people could discuss the issues that need to be discussed, instead of the govt being able to prevent people from talking about things the govt doesn't want them talking about.

The flag, the anthem etc represent the US government. They're there to be protested.

The NFL is not the federal government. The NFL can put a stop to it any time it wants. That doesn't violate the First Amendment. And patriotic Americans who find this shit to be despicable also have First Amendment rights.

Sure, as long as you understand that it's those people who are providing that livelihood at their risk, and not the State. That's a workplace, and those stupid antics looks bad for the employer, they should be told to stop or be fired.

Should be.

I will not salute the flag. I worship the Constitution and not the flag. You are the moron. You worship a false god.

I don't worship any god at all, moron. No one is asking you to salute the flag, but I'll be damned if I will contribute a dime to the incomes of disrespectful millionaires who show their contempt for the flag and the national anthem.

Read the quote in my signature, asshole. They certainly are protesting the American flag.

If they don't like standing for the national anthem, then let them find another employer.

Leftwingers are the ones trying to outlaw free speech, not Trump.

Trump is trying to outlaw free speech and so are you. You are no different Nazi.

What actions has Trump taken to outlaw free speech? When has even expressed a desire to do so?

During the campaign he said he should be able to sue the media when they lie about him
The White House called for the firing of Jemelee Hill by ESPN
He clearly is attempting to incite people by his ignorant comments on the NFL

His comments about the NFL are dead on, and the majority of Americans agree with him.

Do you think the media should be allowed to lie?

They may say that they disagree but a majority disagree that the players should be fired.

Who determines what a lie is? The fact is that Trump has lied plenty of times yet you refuse to hold him accountable.

He hasn't lied 1/10th as much as Hillary or Obama. When snowflakes hold their rulers accountable, then we'll start worrying about Trump.

 

[bripat9643]

As a veteran my self I agree. Everyone has the right to do it, but they do not have the right to not be fired for it or be called an idiot.

You really want to embrace the optics of threatening a person's livelihood for not being patriotic enough?

Sure, as long as you understand that it's those people who are providing that livelihood at their risk, and not the State. That's a workplace, and those stupid antics looks bad for the employer, they should be told to stop or be fired.

The fact that people are tolerant is what makes this country great. The flag is a piece of cloth and the anthem is a bunch of notes. You worship a false god. The Constitution is what makes this country great. It preaches free speech. Yo are a bunch of rightwing bullshit.

The Nazi flag is also "just a piece of cloth." How do you feel about people marching down the street with those?

Every time you post you only prove that your a giant economy sized idiot.

 

[LoneLaugher]

I'm not talking about the Constitution, you are free to disrespect the flag under the Constitution, the Supreme Court made that decision long ago.

What I'm talking about is military veterans saying that their status as military veterans give them a special right to disrespect the flag, or tell others it's ok to disrespect the flag.

That's pure unadulterated bullshit.

You never served did you?

I can see you're very jealous of us 1%ers.....

I did.

Yo, lonely boy! Blackrook ! When are you going to issue your apology for this act of stolen valor?

Your military service does not mean you get to say it's OK to disrespect the flag......that's a bullshit argument.

I personally have not heard any fellow military member or vet say it is 'ok' to disrespect the flag. What I have said and heard is the defense of our Constitutional Rights.

The military has served and sacrificed to protect every American's Constitutional Rights, which includes Freedom of Speech.

I believe it is every citizen's right to exercise that freedom ... that does not mean I believe that it is 'ok' to disrespect the flag. Having a legal right to do so within the boundaries of the law and Constitution is different from doing so being 'ok'.

THAT being said, after last night's game, I am glad to see the NFL players got the message that was sent - you may have the RIGHT to disrespect the National Anthem, but it is NOT 'OK'.

LOLOL

Those aren’t “disagreements,” they’re documented lies. There’s over 100 on that page alone. Since you claim Obama and Hillary lie 10 times as much, either. Post 1,000 lies for each of them or you’re the liar.

No excuses accepted.

They are only "documented" by the fake news. The leftwing definition of a "lie" is any objection to leftwing horseshit.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Did y'all catch the footage of pino trump stating that "they can't do that"?

How did he get to be so utterly ignorant about the country he is supposed to be leading?

Translation: you can’t refute a single one.

Thanks for confirming you lied when you falsely claimed both Hillary and Obama lie ten times as much. : thup:

The US Constitution says it's ok to disrespect the Flag.

doesn't mean I can't call you a cocksucker if you do.

Thats easy to do from behind your keyboard in your mom's basement.

 

[LTCArmyRet]

Active or not?

It makes a difference.

If not active, its undoubtedly protected free speech. But, if pino trump gets his way, that will all change and you dummies will wish you had paid more attention to liverals.

Your military service does not mean you get to say it's OK to disrespect the flag...

...that's a bullshit argument.

Uh --- yyyyyyyyyyyeeeeah OK. Should be in the Non Sequitur forum.

I guess you're right. Military service does not mean you get to say it's OK to disrespect the flag.
The Constitution is what says that.

My post -- I think there is some constraint if you're active. IOW, active military give up certain rights.

what rights? I never gave up any rights while serving.

Oh? Freedom of protest while in uniform? Freedom of movement while on duty? Who else can be written up for destruction of government property for continuously getting sunburned?

So your job allows you to leave work and protest something? You get to pick the location you perform your work duties? Admonishment on a piece of paper!! how ruthless the military can be

Are you sure you've actually served? Actually been under the UCMJ?

But this symbol, the one that separated the country by those who wanted to destroy the United States of America, is ok..

The "FLAG CODE"

(d) The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
(i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown.

So, who is disrespecting the flag!

...that's a bullshit argument.
