    Joe Chenelly, executive director of AMVETS, said players who protest by kneeling during the national anthem are exercising their free speech and that AMVETS only wanted to do the same.https://usat.ly/2n3vQ0j

        we kneel to raise awareness of police brutality against colored folks, not against the flag nor the soldiers. everyone respect the soldiers and the flag.

        Yes and unfortunately the police brutality message has been ignored and angry white guys are making it about themselves as usual.
