NFL football players not honoring our flag

Been thinking about this for a while now and what just struck me is this: regardless of what the cause is, the method of getting attention has effectively silenced any voice they might have had.

Little bit like insulting someone's mother so you can talk to them; won't matter what you say afterwards, the guy isn't listening anymore because he just wants to kill you.

I think this thread is good cross section of the reaction most have had. Very little talk about the why and a whole lot of anger about how it was done. And you can add my name to the angered list, didn't watch MNF, didn't check the score and don't even know (or care) who played.

Can't speak for the reason behind the demonstrations, only commenting on the way it was done.
