    The insurrection in DC was brought to you by the same people that said taking a knee during the National Anthem at a sporting event was unpatriotic.

    What "insurrection"? Last I checked it was a PROTEST with VIOLENCE thrown in the mix, much like every single leftist demonstration/riot/"fiery but peaceful" protest done by the left, except in the capital riot no buildings were burned.
    It think you and your uninformed leftist buddies need to go look up the definition of INSURRECTION

    You are implying that the tens if not hundreds of millions of people who oppose kneeling during the Anthem are the same thousand people that rioted on Jan 6.

    Does that honestly make sense to you?

    Insurrection: a violent uprising against an authority or government.

    Somehow a violent uprising taking place in one of the very seats of government does not fit that definition? Care to tell me where it does not?

    The people who approve of what happened on 1/6 are the same people that got mad at Colin Kaepernick

    I find your logic to be puzzling to say the very least.

    You have it backwards

    Every person who was part of the insurrection on 1/6 (or who cheered them on) were the people getting their panties in a bunch when Kaepernick took a knee.

    Hmmm. Your post was "The people who approve of what happened on 1/6 are the same people that got mad at Colin Kaepernick"

    Arent you the one that is now declaring your original statement as backwards? You didnt say every person that was part of the insurrection as you now claim, you said the people the people who approve of what happened are the same people.

    Why are you now reversing your statement?

    Your logic continues to be illogical. In truth, no matter the direction the statement is made, it is still illogical. 150 million people are in no way painted by the bad actions of a thousand people that supposedly ( according to you) ALL feel the same way on a tangential but far different issue.

    I suppose I could say that the lunatics in Seattle that overthrew their city goverment are the same people that think we need to curb defense spending, except for the reality that I am far too intelligent and dignified to spout such meaningless drivel.

    LOL...so you for no good reason opted to change the order of your statement and it is ME that is playing semantics because I am pointing out YOUR contradiction?...Huh?

    At any rate...I suppose I could say that the lunatics in Seattle that declared their own government are the same people that think we need to curb defense spending, except for the reality that I am far too intelligent and dignified to spout such truly meaningless drivel.

    The flag represents the people of the united states, the veterans and all those who have sacrificed. It doesn't represent Joe Biden and all the corrupt politicians. THE USA IS FOR AND OF THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

    The government represents themselves and their special interests. The government isn't America and to check the government is American culture. In America, protesting is patriotic.

    Kaepernick is wrong because he was protesting the wrong thing. Like I said the flag represents himself and his American brothers who died for him and all of us. It does no represent the government institutions.

    I said it's American patriotism to protest the government. It's not American patriotism to protest the people who have served and died for this country.

    I am a vet. I don't equate the American flag (or the National Anthem) with my service. His kneeling during the National Anthem in no way offends me. What offends me are the far too frequent occurrences that he was protesting against.

    Actually you need to prove there was an insurrection and no one has done that. It's just part of the plan promoted by Nanci and the FBI!

    I, for one among thousands, am fully aware that taking a knee during the national anthem is unpatriotic, but had nothing what-so-ever to do with the Jan 6 shenanigans.

    Two things do not have to be directly related to be connected by hypocrisy.
