    The American flag is a symbol of America and Americans. If flags don't mean anything then why does the left blow chunks when they see a Confederate flag?

    If that were true, then why is Colin making such a huge conniption kneeling over it? Nice personal attack.

    Soldiers fight for each other, not a flag. Spare me the BS.

    New Balance is being prosecuted for false advertising. Of their overall manufacturing, only 17.5% is American content.

    New Balance needs a hero like Colin Kaepernick to rescue them.

    While that is true, Steve's point is dead on target: If the flag means nothing then why does the LW crap themselves over the Confederate flag?

    99% of Americans are lip-service patriots.

    Nike just signed an eight year contract with the NFL. I bet some heads exploded at the NFL's main office in NY when this Kaepernick stuff came out.

    You were unfrocked Max. Take your punishment like a man and eat your words.

    No, you spare us the BS. Just last week you guys went hysterical because a flag wasn't flown at half mast long enough to suit you.

    How about this, let's just wait and see if they sell. If they don't sell NIKE will pull them.

    Today, yes. It didn't used to be that way.

    Libs turned the U.S. into a giant Greece. There's not much of traditional America left, so there's no reason for patriotism anymore.

    Your idea of patriotism is kneeling for the anthem, burning our flag, not saying the pledge and going on TV and calling your president a traitor.

    Why don't you tell this board how you and your leftist pals demonstrate your patriotism.

    Excellent dodge.

    So let me get this straight since I am really trying to understand the far Left Wing socialist anti-American point of view: Burning the American flag is a legal, legitimate form of protest but waving the Confederate flag is an evil, racist act deserving extreme repudiation?

    The flag doesn't represent a political party, but if it did it would represent Republicans. Your flag is flying in Cuba.

    I'm a northern Republican. The Confederate flag is your problem.

    Asking him to affirm his hypocrisy will probably lead to a snarky response which totally and intentionally avoids your point.

    By exposing jingoism by jingo, and unfrocking right-wing couch commandos, and fake Rear Admirals.
