        Why do you feel bad about it. You just exercised your constitutional rights and suffered the consequences. Good job.

        Get off your high horse. The issue is police brutality - has nothing to do with the flag or anthem. Educate yourself & stop watching FOX.

        You know what the kneel is protesting, right? Freedom is the right to protest.If you were black you’d feel differently-and that’s the gist..

        keep in mind it goes both ways. Others have just as much rights to protest back over it..and that’s AMERICA .. not your Black & White view

        The entire point of #takeaknee is a racial divide issue, a systemic American issue that must be addressed.

        Those who need to “ get it” won’t see it as racial...& if they could just open their hearts & minds...wow!

        I give him credit for apologizing. The suspension does seem harsh considering he took ownership for his actions. Especially w a good record.
