TheFemaleCritic. When they kneel they are not only disrespecting whites, but also Native Americans, Asians, Hispanic and last but not least there own people that served and died for the country... I don't think you will ever understand, there is a time and place for everything, and being in uniform while being on the field, which makes them currently employees of a company or owner, is definitely not a plus for equal rights. I am so sure of this, that if MLK was here today, he would be begging the players to stop this, because it only benefits the racist and casts a terrible light on all minorities.

TheFemaleCritic. After reading most of your counter comments, you definitely don't understand what you are talking about. #1. The players are most definitely disrespecting our country and the people that served and died for our country. Players can protest without giving a middle finger to our country, by joining marches, and using social media, and the news media as well in interviews to get their points across, without disrespecting others. #2. The owners have every right to decide the fate of their employees if they don't agree with their representation of their team or company coming from that employee. Trump just opened the door and told the owners to grow a backbone and do something about this, or it makes them look even worse than the players, a bunch of fearful yellow bellied cowards. #3. You are entitled to freedom of speech, but there is also consequences for using it especially on others folks time and payroll. Meaning if fans want to destroy the NFL, they can do it rather quickly. I personally stopped watching the NFL, and now watching colleges play.
