    "As a man, I've got to stand for something." Linebacker Telvin Smith was one of several Jaguars players who remained in the locker room during the national anthem prior to Thursday night's preseason game in Jacksonville. https://abcn.ws/2MlMHdk pic.twitter.com/5FJJRD9iFC

        How about we just quit playing the anthem at all sporting events. It is unnecessary

        Pull your head out the sand. They’ve been crystal clear why they protest. You choose to live in ignorance.

        They are protesting what they see as injustice in America. It is their right to protest as they see fit.

        True, but it'll never change hearts & minds like a good argument, which I've yet to hear from them.

        A good argument? POC in this country are treated differently. That is their 'argument'. They'll never change your 'heart and mind' because you have closed them to the reality of life as a POC in the USA

        It is the most valuable right of every American to protest against their government.

        There is nothing like a good man saying it is love. We all need to have more love for one another. We are Americans & that means we respect each other & learn from one another.
