    WATCH: This official in Connecticut kneeled during the pledge of allegiance at a town hall meeting. Her silent protest has divided the town -- and the country. https://cbsn.ws/2LG020N pic.twitter.com/LG5Ih5dzcC

        Kick her out of the country! Men and women died for your right to protest! Have respect for the fallen soldiers and the wounded who would still fight for our freedom.

        This has nothing to do with (us) veterans. The women and men to which you speak also died for her to kneel.

        You wrote, “Men and women died for your right to protest”. Therefore, they died to protect her right, every American’s right, to peacefully protest as she is doing. I applaud her for acting on her beliefs, as I honor & respect every person who gave & give all to keep us free.

        Is it me, or am I the only one that finds kneeling during the Pledge offensive? One stands unless disabled.

        Your beliefs are NOT others beliefs, which is called freedom. What's offensive is that you stand for the flag yet do not understand the freedoms for which it stands.

        My word. Thank you. It's like none of them get it. You have to keep saying it over and over and over again, and they still don't get it. SHE HAS THE RIGHT.

        Thats not True kneeling in protest has been happening WAY before this. Martin Luther king used to kneel during protest to pray and was BEAT for it and many thrown in jail. Its a first amendment right. You dont have to like it but its THEIR right.

        Yes. Thank you. Please kneel. It's her RIGHT. There is no law that says we must stand, & she was not disrespectful.

        Collin Kaepernick deserves the Arthur Ashe Courage award. He’s inspired so many people to be brave, to peacefully protest, and to fight for change. All at the expense of his career and reputation.

        She said in an interview today he was an inspiration and how much courage it takes to kneel in front of the country. She’s getting hell from a town.

        Yes she does. She is strong so letting it roll off her back. But I am truly disgusted with the abuse & threats she’s had to endure. I don’t know what has happened to civil debates or discussion in this country. Oh wait that’s right just remembered who’s POTUS.
