I’m a liberal, I cannot stand our current president, I agree with Kaepernick’s original reason for kneeling – to protest trigger-happy behavior with black Americans by some police officers – and I ain’t leaving America (except for my sister’s wedding in Israel, but then I will come back).
One of the great things about America is that you can demonstrate your concern for public issues any time, anywhere in public. If the bosses of the NFL players want them to stand during the National Anthem, they could do so, but they have chosen not to. If you don’t like that, watch a golf tournament, but there is much less risk of brain injury to the players, and nobody runs very fast or ever, ever catches a ball.
