You post. I'll reply. It's called "Freedom of Speech"!

You have the right to get on your knees. I have the right to post about it.

Tough shit, little boy.
Do you think fans shouting out during the anthem is disrespectful?

Or at the end in KC when they all yell home of the chiefs. Originally Posted by bamscram

I've got some Post-Harvey cleaning, unpacking, and fixing to do, as well as helping some customers, neighbors, friends, and acquaintances with their shit ... and contributing to the delinquency of a bunch of overpaid juveniles is not a priority.

They keep shooting themselves in the foot every day, which is what juveniles due, especially those who are spoiled and overpaid!

I saw some folks leaving the area earlier in their "tailgating unit" and they were flying a Texans' flag on one side and the U.S. Flag on the other .... PERFECT!

No one should tell you to sit nor should you tell someone to stand.

Those are just personal choices.

So many people have said the past couple of weeks ... there are things a person has a "right" to do, but they just aren't "appropriate" and/or "acceptable."

Correct, just because someone has the right to do or say something doesn't mean it's acceptable. For instance Kaepernick was running around during practice sessions last year wearing "Pig socks" depicting pigs wearing police uniforms. He has a basic right to wear them. But his reason behind it was Anti-Police. Then he exploited that sentiment by not standing for the National Anthem.

You should not care wtf I think is acceptable just like I do not care what you think is acceptable.

If you want to sleep during the national anthem or drink , just as long as you do not fuck with my right to celebrate however I want. Then it is acceptable.

When it becomes unacceptable is when other tell you how to act. Do we want a country of Sheep?

It is not a Conservative Principle to brow beat others who do not think just like you. People that say they are Conservatives need to get out their handbooks on just what a true Conservative actually is.

Well I guess it just depends on how ya wanna look at it. Americans really aren't on the same page culturally, socially and spiritually anyway. Maybe that's how this country got the point of social injustice.

The 1987 NFL season was the 68th regular season of the National Football League. This season featured games predominantly played by replacement players as the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) players were on strike from weeks four to six.
It's real easy: "You won't to play ball. Stand during the presenting of the U.S. Flag and the playing of the National Anthem with your hand over your heart and look like you give a shit about this country."
