        Unite to what? Disrespecting the anthem and flag? There are other positive ways to fight for inequality. DontTakeTheKnee

        Of course: @NFL protects wife abusers & felons. #michaelvick killed dogs, #RayRice nearly killed his wife! But it’s about making $.

        I fought for their right to do that. And kneeling is as American as I can think of. It’s free speech at work. Did you fight for them?

        Could a veteran of the Revolutionary War imagine that Americans 240 years later would stand & honor of British Anthem & not USA Anthem? SAD

        @NFL is at war with Americans period has nothing to do with Trump. Protest issues not the Anthem or the Flag.

        You’re all hypocrites. What about the things you all openly cheer for that are AGAINST the US Flag Code? Why is that okay?

        This was no rhetoric. Just facts. And they weren't forced to do anything. They chose to double down on being stupid

        they didn't unite tho, this is a false narrative. On top of that the fans booed them off the field. Nobody is watching either
