I am not prejudice against black people. To me though taking a knee during the National Anthem is disrespectful and a slap in the face to the very foundations this country was founded on which gives these individuals the freedom to protest. Peaceful protest is fine but show respect to the flag that gives them the right to do this. All these guys are multi millionaires. If they really want to show support and protest voluntarily give give one years salary to the cause. As they say, put your money where your mouth is. Let’s see how many sign up for that.
