    For those that aren’t getting it, taking the knee is not turning your back on the flag or country. It’s freedom of speech and letting us all know that something is up. Wake up and do some research. Look at the systemic systems that oppress so many people of color in our country.

    Consider.. a Draft-dodging president can tell us what is disrespectful to our Flag? Whoever did he serve?

    Touche. Understand the issue and don't listen to those who just jump on a bandwagon because somebody said it.Thanks.

    People can always ignore the kneeling just as they ignore the injustice.

    Forced allegiance is just that. Forced. If you want to live in a country that forces pledges to flags and and songs there is always North Korea.

    I agree with you that he should be heard by everyone but from the history of giving respect to the flag of the nation we should stand like every part of the world how they valued their national anthem....
