    “If you think that it’s OK to take a knee during our national anthem and disrespect openly the national anthem, you are wrong.”

        No one is disrespecting the fucking anthem...once again, racism, the main issue is being swept under the rug like it doesn’t exist

        Apparently they need to find a better way to protest, because what they are currently doing isn’t conveying the proper message.

        EXACTLY!!! Somehow lost in all of this is that they’re NOT protesting the flag, but protesting racial injustice and police brutality.

        Best way to get them to stand and salute the flag is to stop giving them a reason to kneel.

        Great way to put it, but I would suggest you change “them” into “people”

        Wow, y'all really tweeted just a quote without attributing it to anyone? .... Also, this is an ignorant statement.

        I would like an author- but, this is amazing. Ignorant is ignoring what the protestors say their protest is about.

        Is this statement attached to a news story or an editorial? Who is it from?
