not what I said but it doesn't help their case that they're actively disrespecting the flag

--- Quote from: Nonnel on December 23, 2017, 06:58:28 PM ---but they never said they hate their country. they're exercising one of the exemplary rights they've been given by that country by protesting unrightful police force.

if you think it has anything to do with patriotism or veterans or any of that bullstuff then you've been played hard.

what I said before except add Colin Kaepernick saying (I think) that America isn't a great country that's why I'm doing this

from wikipedia

--- Quote ---"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder", referencing a series of events that led to the Black Lives Matter movement and adding that he would continue to protest until he feels like "[the American flag] represents what it's supposed to represent".

seems reasonable to me? he thinks the flag is not representing freedom while police are able to get away with atrocities. whether you think the police have been justified most of the time is up to you, but his protest is about that and not "because i hate america"

Red Spy:
i'm pretty sure oppression of black people isn't actually going on
