Back then you would be jailed for not doing as told by the king

However in the US, we have the right to peaceful protest.

So respect is only due if you would be punished for not showing it?

By kneeling, he was enacting his right to the first amendment.

Yes, and what was his message?

This monument gives me a massive erection.

He got a response from his protest, which is exactly what he wanted.

What was his protest?

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."

Direct quote from an interview with him on the NFL site

I find it odd you are argueing that his kneeling was a sign of respect and now you are sayign he was protesting

I was wrong about it being a sign of respect.

I admit that

However there still is no need for outrage.

The outrage isn't hurting anything. It is just bringing light to his reasoning.

Flag of a country. A flag of the United States of america. a flag that represents not just our military but every single citizen on this country. He diesrespected every citezen of this country by protesting that flag.

How was it disrespectful though

It was a peaceful protest.

He wanted outrage and he got it.

He was enacting his first amendment rights.

>paying attention to the National Felons League in the first place

How is it disrespectful to claim every citezen of this country, mos tof whom he has never met, oppressess black people and people of color? Being able to speak freely does not immunize you from the content of your speech. Your right to say something doesnt'automatically make it respectful.

AS it turns out every other person in the country has a 1st amendment right to say Colin is full of shit and respnd accordingly.

But would you agree that him kneeling is a form of peaceful protest.

We can agree that we do not share the same viewpoint but can we also agree on that?
