First of all, fuk that douche. I always saw the national anthem before sports as a moment to remember all the folks who died so we can spend an afternoon getting drunk and watching sports. If it wasn't for veterans, we would all be buying surfboards with the pound sterling, or speaking german. That's where it begins and ends for me. If your an overpaid bit*h and dis-respect the only thing that allows you to be on that stage, you can fuk right off, mate. Yes you have the right to be a fuking douche, and I have the right to be ****ing pissed about it. Unfortuantely no one is going to trash their season tickets over it, so don't expect much to happen.
I think the ones who are brainwashed are the BLM clowns like this QB fayg. BLM is a cancer to societal peace, and this guy is an agitator. I don't blame these people that say 'move to Canada'. If you don't have a sense of nationalism, you don't have a nation. If you don't have a nation, you don't have rule of law. This is the most free nation in the history of this planet. People from all over the world are dying to become citizens here bc of our freedoms. This a$$hole is blatantly saying FU to this nation, and if he doesn't like the freedom he has here, yeah he should GTFOH. If we don't retain our nationalism and stand up for it, we'll be like Germany, and Hitlery will be our Merkel. Get it?
Huh?? Sorry, but now that YOU mention it --YOU sound like Hitler,!!! Do not ever forget, it has been said before by a person way smarter than you (or me), that "patriotism (nationalism) is the last refuge of scoundrels". Your post above fits perfectly there. Now go argue with a wall somewhere....
+1. Archy hit the nail on the head. Without those Stars and Stripes, this toolbag would be working minimum wage jobs and struggling to survive. Lesson: Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
The patriotism you mention is the reason why you have a nice house, car, lifestyle, and ability to do what you want when you want.
You stand to do the pledge and for the anthem to salute the ideals of America. All people, families and countries have failings but its the ideals that we aspire to that matter and for that reason, though he has the right to sit in protest he is a complete jackass for doing it. This goes to prove that there are in fact two Americas, one that believes in the hope and promise of it and the other that hates it and wants it to change. At the head is Obama, followed by Hillary and the "liberal" wing of the Democratic party. They would prefer a country that has surrendered any hope of personal sovereignty and would put the power into their brilliant hands to rule over us like an infant is ruled by over protective parents. Parents whos main reason for being over protective is to create an emotional weakness in their children to keep them from reaching full independence and leaving them behind.
Uhmm, yah...and one shytty qb is gonna change all that If thousands dead in '01...death from wack a$$ shooters - including religious extremists (and there have been both) and (sadly) dead cops haven't changed basic founding philosophies, this won't either And btw, according to historians and other wackos, we've been losing the country since 1776...nostalgia will kill everything like nothing else...this country was built and founded to evolve, which is why we don't have a monarchy...try to keep up
I second that Lance. He could have held a press conference to voice his opinions, been interviewed by Sports Illustrated, gone in many different directions. This was just disrespectful, and will not do BLM any favors. I will look forward to the sh!t storm he just brought on himself. There is every creed and color that die for our flag. May he suffer from ass cancer, slowly.
So I need to ask all of you that are preaching nationalism, patriotic ideals, and saying he should leave, etc... what have you done exactly to ensure our freedoms? Standing up for the anthem and posting on the Internet does not count. Having pride in the USA means nothing if you have not put any skin in the game. Nothing is more pathetic than a bunch of dudes that slober over veterans yet never served themselves. 99% of vets I know don't care about your pride, they want to hear about your sacrifice. So for those of you that have served and preach patriotic ideals, please carry on. The rest of you please for the love of God stfu.
What zippy said. Here is the difference if you are edjumicated or not. A true patriot of this country and what it STANDS for, knows it Doesn't mean you have to put your right hand over heart!
Tom Brady will remind him to check his BLACK PRIVILEGE the irony of everything.... Get out and vote TRUMP
I felt terrible for the girl in the Olympics who got grief for not putting her hand over her heart. That was bs, she was just overwhelmed. I truly don't get overly worked up over flag burners,ect.. It IS their right as Americans to voice their opinions. You don't have to have the flag waving every day in front of your house to be patriotic. This , I promise, is the last time on here I will ever play the vet card(one small aspect of my life), but vets do care about this. Some, more than others, really, really love the red, white and blue and it hurts them to have a national figure show blatent disrespect. It's as if their sacrifice did not matter. Most of these men and women do not have national attention to tell their story. What does the flag have to do with police violence against minorities anyway? The two subjects are completely separate. Obama did not become the president solely on the black, or brown, or yellow vote. We are not perfect as a nation, but from my experience, better than most. Now FU#K that douche bag!!!
Vote Gary Johnson if you love freedom. Hillary wants your guns and Trump wants to tell companies they can't trade freely around the globe. Plus Trump doesn't think America is great.
Ha!! Any candidate that wants to limit free trade is the communist. And anyone that votes Trump is too dumb to understand this truth.
If Colink K or any other celebrity wants to impress me with their stance on oppression or whatever then I would hope to see real action. Donate money, time or whatever. He sat down - whooptie****ndo. Nothing more than disrespect and a lame attempt to stay relevant. We have the power to stop this. Don't go to games, don't buy jerseys, don't give them a nickel of your money. They can go get real jobs earning 75k.
