If I owned an NFL team I'd position a sniper on the stadium roof and the first sumbitch who took a knee during the Anthem would get his head blown off......******* dirtbags making million$ playing a kid's game and they have no respect for the country that makes that possible? The 1st Amendment applies to saying what you please about the government...doesn't work that way in business...the Rats saw to that with their PC crap....so it works both ways. You put on that uniform and walk into that stadium, check your politics at your locker.
I think that is what upsets so many people. It's from where this sprouted. The radical left works very hard to correct and punish anyone who strays from their ideal of 'correct society'. It's all born from Cultural Marxism.
What in the **** do you think forcing people to assume a position for a music fetish that has zero to do with what they came to the stadium for *IS*, if not "punishing anyone who strays from their version of 'correct society'?
I mean Jesus Christ on a COCONUT.
Hypocrisy, meet Doublethink. And its wife Having it Both Ways.
We have a cultural lik all others in which norms are set. One of these cultural norms is to stand and show respect for the nations flag. Cultural Marxism seeks to destroy all norms in it's quest for social upheaval. People such as yourself attempt to inform us that these norms are only there to 'opress us'...to make us 'slaves to a system'. "You can't force me or anyone I know to bow down to your flag maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan"
When in fact you are either too obtuse or self destructive to see that what you are promoting is simply an alternative version of control.
When old cultures are deconstructed, new ones form in their place. Many times those new structures are more oppressive than the previous. Be careful what you push toward...there may be a cliff.
