        How is that possibly "another fraught question"? Where is ANY race referenced in the song. The P.C. @nytimes is full of idiots & the insane!

        Do you know "slave" is NOT race specific? Why do you assume they only mean a slave of a specific race; white, black, Asian?

        The Star Spangled Banner represents the colonial mindset that depends upon slavery for global financial superiority!

        the word racist is so flippantly over used today that it's meaning is blurred.The flag has nothing to do with race

        the scale of hubris and scope of denial possessed to declare any one life as having been easier than another is empty of empathy.

        FFS. Your editorial board actually sits around and thinks this stuff up? Really? With all the actual journalism that needs doing?

        The question should be "is Kaepernick an American"? If he is proving himself not to be American, should he be allowed privileges?
