I think this is the best compromise


If you don't want to stand for the national anthem ,that's ok but you have to stay in the locker room during the anthem .

MODERATE COMPROMISE!!

"By all means you should feel free to protest, but make sure you are hidden away so no one can see you..."


That's the whole point , as the on field protest  is causing major problems for the NFL and they need to move on from this issue asap .

The facts is sports and politics should not be mixed  One reason why sports is so great is it is not politicized .

Why don't you explain that to your New Fuhrer.

I never supported Trump, I'm a Never Trump Republican .


Also I do totally disagree with Trump's actions here, for the very reason of I dont want politics and sports mixed.

I never stand for the anthem for a variety of reasons one mainly being the countries views on Arabs and Muslims. And guess what, it's perfectly my right as an American to do that. It's not unamerican as the TRIGGERED right claims it is.

I do not see a problem with NFL players kneeling either. It's another false outrage the President and the right have.

America is not Anti Muslim or Anti Arab

America is not Anti Muslim or Anti Arab

You mean aside from the atmosphere of Islamophobia and racism directed towards Arabs and those who appear to be Arab to ignorant people, the government's history of racial profiling of Arabs and Muslims, the spying on Muslim communities following 9/11, the government's recent ban on people from several predominantly Muslim countries (while ignoring that the perpetrators of 9/11 were majority Saudi (excluded from the ban list) and most American terrorist attacks were conducted by people born in Western countries), and the hysterical right-wing conspiracies that are believed by a significant number of Americans (such as around half of Republican voters believing Obama is a Muslim)?

The fact is if you are an refugee or immigrant from the middle east you should not call America anti muslim as America gave you a better life.

Most of America's Middle East interventions since 2001 have been justified


Afghanistan- The tailban aided and gave safe haven to terrorist groups who did 9/11 , so the invasion of Afghanistan was totally justified , just as declaring war on Japan after Pearl Harbor was totally justified.


Iraq - This one was unjustified

Libya - Unjustified

Airstrikes against ISIS - totally justified as ISIS is a threat to the US and the world .

Airstrikes against ISIS (in Syria) come with the tiny problem that they're illegal under international law.

And you left out

Somalia - unjustified (except for anti-piracy operations)
Yemen - unjustified



no thats Saudi Arabia not the US .


As for somalia we havent been there since 1993.
