Kneeling is a physical act. There is no symbolism in kneeling.

Now if someone defines why they knelt (see:Colin, Catholics, Etc) then they has put meaning behind a physical act.

Does that suddenly mean that every time someone kneels it is because someone is protesting ... no.

It's silly and asinine.

You are full of ****. There are a slew of meanings behind rituals and "physical acts". I assume this physical act has zero meaning and no one should get their panties twisted up...

Yes that is an act that had very little meaning before it was "branded" by nazis.

Kneeling has a bunch of different meaning.

Just to be clear I think it is dumb for the players to do this. Just play the f-Ing game.

But it is equally stupid to continually bring it up.

Had no one asked it would have blown over quickly but since it is constantly being reported it just keeps coming up and twisting more panties.

I think the whole situation is stupid.

Also my point was to the picture in the OP.

Kneeling is often a sign of respect. Especially when death is involved.

You know why Trump tweeted about the protests - to fire up his base of support and gain more thru a populist approach. Trump doesn't really care about this either. However, I don't care to see overindulged and overpaid ******** disrespecting the country thru their choice of protest.

Interesting that someone posted a pic of Hitler. You might want to find out what happened to people in Germany who didn't salute during Hitler's reign.

wait, did you just compare Nazi Germany to the USA? bahahahahahahaha!!! you are starting to sound like Tom, I wonder when we are going to start those interment camps...

Not interested in that conversation because it has nothing to do with why I posted the Nazi salute in the first place. You know why I did it.

There is one real big difference between Tim Tebow and Kolin Kaepernick.

I think you know what that is.

He was actually kneeling for the right reason, and NOT during the anthem.

And he was criticized and mocked heavily, ironically by many of the MSM who are praising this particular form of "kneeling".

One did it during the Anthem and one did it before or after the Anthem? That's my guess.

one spelled their name right?

That you just happen to comment on. And you have the stones to scold everyone about "taking this sh*t way too seriously". Really? Maybe get your own "sh*t" in order before getting on your pedestal.

guilty. all of this nonsense is purely entertainment for me. from what angle is this new kneeling thread going to tackle? the slightest of perceived slights we send y'all into a frenzy. keep it up. it's more of a study into human interest anymore. how fragile are we?

Slightest? That's a laugh. It's not slight to millions of patriotic Americans. If you let this go it will gain momentum and be labeled as normal like homosexuality. It's not slight especially to veterans who've seen friends and comrades in coffins with the flag draped over their last resting place.

Like the saying goes: All gave some, some gave all. If you were a veteran you'd understand.

I'm quite certain this isn't entertainment for you. As you seem way too triggered by "our" opinions, that you felt the need to get on your pedestal and preach from on high.

I'm also quite certain that you can't type and/or proofread to save your life. "we send y'all"? and what does the bolded even mean.

Freedom of speech and the right to protest is supposed to be labeled as normal in the United States

The protest has nothing to do with the anthem or flag. I actually wish they would figure out another way to protest so that people cant use that rhetoric to avoid the conversation
