I understand how passionate peoples feelings are about the U.S. national anthem, particularly those who served in the military. But, politics should not have a place in sports. The national anthem needs to be changed, is sung to many times, should not be played at sporting events. Im all for having the military, But only use when needed.
This is only my opinion of the National Anthem
Colin Kaepernick should not be bringing his disagreements about police brutality and racial inequality to his job. The NFL, national anthem, have nothing in common with police killing an average of 3.3 people a day.
Kneeling, sitting, talking, during national anthem are not disrespecting America or the military. Not one of the 10 commandments reads you have to stand during the anthem. Standing is just a form of self patriotism.
If this truly was about patriotism, where was the outrage during all of those decades when NFL players weren’t required to be on the field for the national anthem? What about all those people in the stands texting, talking, taking photos, buying food during the anthem? Honoring this country any way you like is your choice.
The NFL forcing the players to now stand on the field during the anthem in order to collect $20 million dollars since 2011 from the Department of Defense and National Guard is not patriotism. It's called greed. What? You thought all of a sudden the players cared about this country after 2011? NO! The NFL would rather accept money than care about players 1st. Amend. Rights. I do not honor or support the anthem, or our government that ignores the constitution and refuse to show respect for their fellow citizens or people around the world.
The people in military who say you are spitting in the faces of soldiers who died for freedom in this country, if you don't stand for the anthem are the biggest hypocrites along with the government. Anybody who enlisted in military after Pearl Harbor and say they made countless sacrifices for other people’s freedom, need to open their eyes. Our freedoms has not been in danger since Pearl Harbor.
I'm all fore the military. But, when needed. We have not needed military to defend this country since 1941. The last time a foreign country even set foot on U.S. soil was in 1916, Mexican Revolutionary Pancho Villa and his Villistas invaded Columbus, New Mexico. The last legal war Congress passed was WWII. All wars after WWII have been illegal, not passed by congress.
When are you brainwashed soldiers going to wake up and see the 50 foreign countries the U.S. has tried to overthrow since 1940's has NOT been about Freedom, security of this country. It's about Corporate Greed, Corrupt Government, the Financially Elite Families. The U.S, caused the deaths of several million people, and caused agony and despair for life's of millions. Don't forget causing the deaths and wounded of thousands of American solider's all for money, not for freedom.
It all started with Operation Northwoods against Cuba. Good thing JFK had the smarts to reject the plan. The US invades other countries for their own strategic gains. Not for your freedom. We already have freedom. Military people need to open their eyes.
So next time a military person tells me I should stand for the anthem because he fought in a war for my freedom which I already had. Ask them Oh! Really? Please tell me what war was a threat to my freedom.
You mean the illegal war in IRAQ? Where our government stole 50 Trillion in Gold and oil and U.S. used the excuse "They had Weapons of Mass Destruction." We have weapons of mass destruction, North Korea, Russia, British all have weapons of mass destruction. Why not invade them? Because they show no signs of a threat or invading us. So tell me again why was IRAQ a threat? Oh that's right, they weren't. How many weapons did our military find in Iraq? ZERO. 4,486 American soldier lost their lives in IRAQ thinking they were protecting our counties freedom when no foreign country was trying to invade us. But am sure U.S. gave the families of the dead solider's some of the stolen gold and oil. NO! You know what they got? A American Flag.
Or maybe it was the War in Afghanistan for our freedom? Oh no. That illegal war was to stop Taliban terrorism. Real reason, Secure and control the poppy fields for the big pharmaceutical companies to make morphine and U.S. to make money from the Heroin drug trade, and lithium mines which they took over by force. But, please tell me again how you fought for my freedom in this war. Last I checked, I didn't see any Afghanistan Taliban invasion on our soil. 2,386 U.S. military deaths in the War in Afghanistan.
I know, it was the illegal Libya war that you fought in to protect my freedom right? Oh no. This war was to kill Gaddafi, force a Regime change and gain control of over 22 tons of gold and 30 Trillion plus of river pipeline. U.S. reason for the war, implement the Security Council resolution, and protect civilians. But, please tell me how you fought for our freedom which was never in danger. 6,000 U.S. military deaths.
It could have been the Persian Gulf War you fought in to protect my freedom. NO. this war was to stop Saddam Hussein invasion and occupation of neighboring city Kuwait. But I could see how Kuwait is a threat to our freedom. 298 U.S. military deaths.
Bottom line is this. U.S. Government is the biggest terrorist. The U.S. Government is nothing but a bunch of hypocritical leaders. The U.S. has been in war 222 years out of the 239, since 1776. That's 93% of the time were at war. U.S. has had 74 wars in 194 different countries. Why? Because of one thing. Greed. War equals money. You brainwashed people can believe we go to war because you think our freedom, our security, are at risk. But, U.S. does not enter a country unless its for gaining money, power, oil, gold, natural resources. Not for your freedom. Remember, No foreign country military has tried to evade the U.S. soil since 1916.
