    NPR sat down with some Texans to understand how the debate around the NFL protests, patriotism, free speech and race will inform their votes in the 2018 midterm election.https://n.pr/2zlbaaa

        Maybe it's time for all of us to take a knee (or a vote) against hate in any form - voting may just be our most powerful form of protest

        Wow. Expelling a student for not standing for the anthem. Kicking football players off a team for kneeling. So sad that these people don’t support each other, and the causes that matter. Respect the flag by fighting brutality.

        Bigger issue than “NFL protests”: Beto’s $10 tax on a barrel of Texas oil. Also, why is NPR funded by taxpayers?

        So, what I learned. On either side of the tracks, Texans want you to be respectfull. Dont mess with thier game.

        Only #clickbait tweets and #MainstreamMedia #FakeNews are talking about this in Texas. We don't let dip$hits in the media get in the way of our football.

        I love how it's been spun into a "culture war" when it's really just groupthink narrow-mindedness. Both sides of the 'debate' don't understand the consequential dichotomy of their positions creating a near endless loop of incivility for lack of understanding.

        Heard this on my way to work. Texas coach talks about soldiers who gave their lives for freedom & didn't get to experience marriage, life, etc. Maybe we're the soldiers now who should be taking a knee to protest the tragedy of any life wrongfully cut short. Jesus took a knee too.

        Kinda sucks that we are a 241 year old country, and our politics is still about skin color rather than policy.
