    You need a 34 and more if you think for an instant President Trump is a more devisive leader than Obaba.
    Not even close.
    And the all time leader is Jesus.

    You want to play the race card now, like most people that have no point.
    In no way is this about race, it's about respect

    Maybe Frank feels he's earned the right to be disrespectful, and advocates others being the same way.
    Myself, and my family have records of our families service going back to the Civil War. So I think I have the right to advocate for respect.

    Either way, race has 0 to do with any of it. It's just about being respectful or playing the clown.

    And I hope these guys do, and I'm going to help them, advance their agenda on the back of my service.

    I posted this in Politics because this is a heated article.Actually this is about race and respect.I think people should agree to disagree peacefully but unfortunately that's not what's happening.Folks aren't listening to and understanding why the players are knelling during the national anthem

    That's what its always been about. Guess you weren't paying attention.

    Taking a knee isn't disrespectful. You know what would be disrespectful?

    Playing a kazoo during the anthem
    Or blaring some other music
    Or running around screaming
    Or waving some group's flag
    Or 100 other things.

    Not kneeling. Grow up.

    75% of the NFL are black,those players feel the flag doesn't represent them and the other players are about solidarity towards there teammates.Watching the national anthem last Sunday on all the games was touching.

    Bull crap. This crap started long before Trump started speaking out about it.

    So players and team owners can have an opinion but not the POTUS? That's rich.
