Trump: NFL should fire players who kneel during anthem

[Rookie Yinzer]

Trump is literally everything the right falsely accused President Obama of being.

One reason why sports is so great is it is not politicized .

This is inherently false.

Wait--- so the Cowboys kneel BEFORE THE ANTHEM and are still booed. This isn't about the "veterans". It is about white people being uncomfortable with being confronted about white supremacy.

This may have been asked before but as a non-American can someone tell me why you would play the national anthem at a club game?Does this happen a lower levels of sport? Schools?

It would only be played in New Zealand at an international match ...that is one between countries.

The Department of Defense also pays the NFL to play it in order to promote signing up for the Armed Services. It is a recruitment tactic for the United States military. Nothing more.

Basically, yeah...

Resounding majorities thinking protests hurt Civil Rights causes when that was the only way to get attention from the mainstream. I doubt many of those white respondents were doing anything to disturb their privilege to attain equal rights for African-Americans either. They are just downright shameful.
