    So all of our pro sports games end in ties?
    Do you realize how foolish that was?

    False equivalency. These drivers are NOT in the armed forces in the middle of a transport. Cared to address why NASCAR allows a traitorous flag to be flown at their event?

    They know that it pisses off some people, usually poosies.

    Poosies always take the bait, hook line and sinker.

    The best post today that I have seen on the PF was that the Confederate war memorials should be returned where they stood and the NFL players who disrespected the American flag by kneeling during the national anthem should all be put in museums.

    You know what's funny, in some places, if a player on the field score a touchdown, kneels and looks at the sky he gets suspended. Guess who does that? Guys like you.

    Poosies are false patriots who "respect" a symbol but have no understanding of the values and ideals behind said symbol.

    Nobody? High school players were suspended and NFL players were fined. I don't follow college football so maybe someone will chime in with what they have done.

    You and your ilk have NO understanding of those values and ideals.

    We normal people will take the word of those who are actually informed and educated about those.

    You (and your ignorant ilk) don't qualify for the spokesman of said values and ideals.

    I noticed yesterday in London the Panthers and Jaguars kneeled during the U.S. national anthem while thousands basically every one in the stadium (British) stood in respect of the national anthem of the United States.

    Then they played the British national anthem "God Save the Queen" and all of the NFL players stood in respect for England.

    When you step back and take a closer look, you see black Americans kneeling for the national anthem of the United States.

    I'm kinda confused.

    Americans never kneels or bows to anyone.

    Except to God.
