which is exactly why everyone kneels for the flag. great.

kaepernick even said it wasn't a gesture of respect so trying to do mental gymnastics to make it sound respectful is dumb


--- Quote from: Khaz on September 26, 2017, 09:24:35 PM ---"it's disrespecting the military!!!" soldiers fight so that we are free and if people feel like other people are not free then they are free to state in whatever way that people are not free. it's probably the stupidest argument i've ever heard and all these overly patriotic people complaining and being stupid is just baffling to me

the only points i've argued is that kaepernick kneeling/saying dumb stuff is handicapped and the nfl has a right to fire people. that's it

the point is that you can show respect without standing.

quote? even then, that doesn't mean it's inherently disrespectful unless he explicitly said "me kneeling was to show disrespect to xyz and i advise fellow sports players to do so as well" it wasn't a gesture of blatant disrespect, he was just making a statement to bring attention to some problems. opinions on said problems are irrelevant. he could have made the same statement by actually being disrespectful.

still tho the fact that im seeing the words "kneeling" and "disrespectful" being associated with each other at all is crazy.

that's not what anybody is doing though. if they were it'd be really weird since if both things are respectful what's the point of kneeling. they're all trying to bring attention to some stupid blm cause like america oppressing black people or whatever, which gets extra funny when you realize obama was still president when the whole fad started.

actually as long as it doesn't have the stars it's usually fine because then it's not considered a flag. most of the stuff about wearing it or using it as anything but a flag is mostly just about using an actual flag for that stuff anyway
