    This is obviously it. The whole thing is about freedom and your freedom to support what you think the flag stands for and your freedom to object to the kinds of injustices that go on in the country that the flag represents. I wouldn't think anything less of someone either way, just like you said. The only people I have a problem with are those who try to curtail the freedoms of others.

    Last I looked this country is finally healing and getting healthier. Not even a pandemic or a bunch of idiots could destroy it.
    I’m also pretty sure Greg Popovich is not a puppet. Guy seems to row his own boat.

    Those people on Twitter don't matter. Standing for the national anthem signifies nothing but respect.

    Ya see, there's two kinds of people in this whirled. Them that gets vilified when they kneel; and them that gets vilified when they stand. That's just the natural order of things.

    Yeah, but all anybody has been able to come up with is she stood up during the anthem. She looks clean, so far. But we'll be watching. Oh, yes. Always watching....
