Will people tune out the NFL

Do you think people will tune out the NFL when they see players kneeling for the National Anthem?

no. racists will tune in to feed their rage, and everyone else will be in firm support.

@pentacorn It's not being racist to respect the flag and what it stands for. I'm sure there are other ways to make their point

@ron122 that's why you can do whatever you want with your knees, and so can everyone else. it's a peaceful protest, protected by the constitution. you do love your country right? then you should consider how important it is that people can't just demand everyone do things your way.

@pentacorn The anthem and flag stands for the people that fought and died for our country

@ron122 i know that. that's why it makes for a poignant protest. it gets people's attention. it sure got yours.

@pentacorn Like rioting and looting gets attention?

pentacorn · F

@ron122 no. kneeling can not be compared to looting or rioting.

it's rather concerning that you seem unable to conceptualize, but i won't worry about you. i'm willing to bet it's just your best effort at trolling out your willful ignorance; i.e. shit posting.

@pentacorn Who's the troll here? I just asked a question here about kneeling for the anthem and you get nasty with me
