    all you need to do is apologize for your unwarranted personal attack to regain the privilege of debating me. think of how good it will feel. and then you can even try to prove me wrong!

    Peaceful protest is not showing disrespect no matter how loud or how many times people parrot that nonsense. The flag is nothing more than a rag with stars and stripes if it is not equally representing ALL Americans and the doling out of equal justice and protections.

    Lmao. **** that noise. You made a claim. You also applied an assumption to me that I wouldn't like what your secret was.

    You get nothing. And you will like it.

    Enjoy the twinkie.

    I don't buy their overpriced stuff anyways, but, if I did, I'd quit buying it now.

    It's one thing to march done the street protesting something. It's another to deliberately kneel, unzip one's pants, spit or bare one's ass during the National Anthem as a form of "protest". Yes, it is disrespectful to our nation. Legal, yes and also disrespectful. Since the NFL is a private corporation, however, they are free to set their own rules on it.

    Here's the thing; is there any doubt that on MLK day a spokesman asked everyone to please rise for a prayer for peace and the life of Martin Luther King and someone kneeled that it would be looked at as disrespectful?

    Two parties, Nike and Kaepernick, sign a contract to make money and promote a product, and people get this bent out of shape about it? Hilarious.

    It does equally represent all Americans, where did you get the idea that it doesn't?

    So it wouldn't bother you if I wipe my ass with the Mexican flag and burn it when I'm done?

    Yep . . . it was definitely racist; but remember it is NEVER wrong when a leftist does it. I don't know why; but it seems to be writ in stone or something.

    but anyone could "care about Nike suddenly," not just white folk. you specifically attributed congitive dissonance to whites. that is racist on its face. prima facia!

    I'd prefer it if you wiped your ass with it then ate it.

    If you want a clearer picture, note who’s mad at Nike and in the process of boycotting vs. who isn’t mad, and in fact are okay with it.

    Colin Kaepernick is a hero. Heroism sells.

    Deplorables can't afford Nike shoes.

    ...and Colin's actions were disrespectful. Since you cut out the MLK part, I'm guessing you secretly agree:

    colin is a whiny little bitch who has the nerve to complain that the people we pay to maintain our civilized society sometimes have to deal with ultra violent thugs in an ultra violent way. then he has the nerve to disrespect a country that allows him to earn millions of dollars for playing a game. he's a 4th-string punk who's found another way to be a little famous for a while. and i'm shocked that you would support the capitalist pigs at nike who are exploiting the death of black boys for profit, all while exploiting brown boys who toil over toxic chemicals in countries most americans couldn't point to on a map let alone pronounce.

    No one fights for the flag. Cut the phony patriotism.
