It’s amazing to watch those once considered thoughtful trying to thread a needle with homilies and platitudes on an issue where they’re just flat-out, DEAD WRONG.

If there was an honest grievance, okay, but this display of disrespect is built on a LIE.

Those invoking freedom of speech as a justification for NFL spoiled millionaires taking a knee forget, that the ‘speech’ they claim a right to, involves a LIE about our police…

…and/or a LIE about the reason for black America’s current ‘inequality’ plight.

It’s time someone told these overpaid primadonnas (and enablers) the truth:

• police violence against the black man is a statistically proven LIE…and…
• it’s a historically proven fact Democrat welfare policies destroyed black families, resulting in disintegrating conditions and values over the last 50+ years.

Take a knee against Chicago, take a knee against the Democrat Party…but STOP disrespecting the American flag…and the Nation that gave you Freedom…

…even if that freedom’s used to make bad choices. We’ll give some the benefit of the doubt, because they could very well be just ignorant of the facts – but only for so long. There’s been enough exposure and information shared now to remedy that ignorance.

Doing so now during a moment of respect for our country, is giving the paying public the middle finger…plain and simple…and if the public votes with their feet, it has nothing to do with denying their ‘freedom of speech/expression’. We refuse to take that disrespect.

Spare us the “standing for the National Anthem is meaningless if it’s mandated” and “be tolerant of dissent” claptrap. This isn’t playground or peewee football, this is the NFL, a venue where it costs hundreds of dollars to go watch a game, and the public refuses to pay hard-earned money to watch overpaid athletes disrespect the flag, the Nation…us.

(And those platitudes don’t mean anything to a league where you get flagged and fined  for displays of disrespect to the other team, its coaches, or the refs…every weekend.)

America has done nothing wrong here, and choosing that measure of disrespect to protest a false premise doesn’t cut it. If they want to take a knee, do it at half-time, or during their pre-game warmup…but NOT during a moment of respect for my country.

The ThugFL is a business-for-profit, not an elementary school playground. Intentional disrespect to its customers will cost that business money. A restaurant can fire a waiter who writes a disrespectful note on a customer’s bill, and a team owner can fire a player who disrespects their customer – the fan paying big dollars…to watch a game…

…not a spectacle.

But, whatever, it boils down to this: here’s your next choice, NFL…

…PATRIOTS can stand during the anthem…LIARS and their Useful Idiots can kneel.

Choose wisely…because we can choose also. And, as always, we’re left wondering…

…how long will white guilt give cover to the Black-LIES-Matter crowd?
