Stupid innocent disrespectful 'young-people' immaturity of the highest order.. Disrespecting their Country and Elders, Disrespecting their President and making USA look weak, making them more vulnerable in these troubled times.

I assume you are being sarcastic. More power to them!

Please oh please be sarcasm

1) Are you American? If not why are you moaning about a perceived slight toward a flag and an anthem or the US "looking weak"?

2) If a large group of black athletes are speaking out on a topic at risk to themselves then maybe we should listen to them instead of making assumptions about what they're trying to say?

2/10. Needed to tone it down a bit to make it more believable. Also lost points for random use of capitals.

I don't see how it's disrespectful. Typically you kneel to something symbolic that is greater than you. That's what they are doing.

Fair play to them, giving the 2 fingers to Trump. The sooner he's put out to grass, the better.:mad:.

Colin Kaepernick started this during Obama's presidency and isn't on a Football team anymore due to his protest.

Trump has suddenly decided to make this whole thing about himself and managed to piss off the NFL owners, who all gave him a lot of money (millions of dollars).

I think the bigger conversation here is the militarisation of sport. Starting to see it in the U.K. with all their poppy nonsense.

If you don't wear a poppy or attempt to make a peaceful, dignified and silent protest, you're suddenly the enemy of the state. Colin Kepernick and James McClean are two sides of the same coin.

Lmao at these negative and disrespectful posts towards me(an individual)just showing my disgust and shock at the immaturity by young men and women towards their Country and Leader.. They are even being screamed and yelled at in some of these venues to STAND UP for your National Anthem. Maybe some of you have Monday morning blues or wee hangover's lol

A narcissist turning a situation to be all about himself, that's a new one! Manchild is the only way to describe this idiot, what a fool of a human being. Best of luck to the players

Oh dear you're not very good at this are you? You need to make it believable.

They are not being immature... it shows guts and determination. I am so glad that I am not an American... I would be both embarrassed and ashamed of my country.

You seem to misuse the word ' disrespectful ' but it matters little.

What do you care how Americans react to America's anthem and why?

These young men are standing up for something more important than a piece of music and a bit of cloth. They are standing up for what is right and proper. I wish we had more principled people in this world and less sheep.

Many actually are, and deeply worried about their country

Wasting my time with you lot.. Go way and ponder in your wee heads and learn some respect before it's too late, am gonna search now online for a good American forum and air my view there, where I'll get the respect I truly deserve :-)

The guys kneeling are patriots. The people getting upset are nationalists.

"Fleg" nonsense isn't confined to a little pocket of our island.

Yes yes, you'll be terribly missed. All the best now comrade.

Sorry I forgot my jacket, emmm does anyone know the name of some good pro American forums?. Thanks :-)

Keep politics out of sport.

Disgusting lack of respect from the majority of nfl owners and players.

Spitting in the faces of the vetrans who stormed normandy beach to fight for their freedom and for the fallen soliders who protected people around the world.

They might not like trump but dont disrespect an anthem and flag for something so petty

Sonics2k

Literally the most peaceful form of protest and people are raging about them.

If I didn't know any better it's almost as if a large chunk of the Right just doesn't want to know about black peoples issues with America.

Petty?
The first player to do this did it during the Obama presidency so it is absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Get yourself clued in before commenting on something.

Hang on now, the kneeling for the flag and anthem thing was happening way before Trump took office, so maybe calm down with the rhetoric.

Secondly, a lot of Veterans agree with these guys.

Thirdly, would you prefer marches in the street which can far too often end up as riots?
