It's a great concept which i'm sure works very well in Great Britain. Unfortunately the right to bear arms is the 2nd amendment of our original constitution. The NRA (national rifle association) with fat pockets continuously lobbies in Washington to ensure it's never changed.
I would hope so after he got a Raven tattoo right before he got cut
As I stated in an earlier post, "I don't respect all that he did but Kaep's original protest to racial inequality I agreed with and supported", meaning I felt his protest was legitimate. In the passage you replied to I am simply stating that along with his poor play from last season and no matter how legitimate his protest is, it has gotten him removed from playing now and possibly in the future.
Yup. Sounds like me.
Honestly and looking in from far away - that's the last thing you guys need to do. There is an overwhelming amount of patriotism on display as it is.
The reason I asked is I encountered someone on Facebook who was so pro cop that he seriously argued with me that the cop shooting within two seconds (less than a second after getting out of the car) was the right move and there was nothing else that could have been done to diffuse the situation... like rolling down the window and identifying as police, parking away and observing the situation, trying to use a taser....
Great post!
I can respect everyone in here views, thoughts and opinions on this subject while at the same time; expressing and respecting my own! Again, that is the beauty of living here in a Democracy and not a Dictatorship! My wife and I are in Maryland now actually. We drove up earlier today in order to hang with our daughter prior to our driving up to Baltimore on Saturday for Sunday's game. I told my wife on the drive up:
"I don't know what to expect when the National Anthem is played at M&T Bank Stadium on Sunday. I don't know if the players will stand or kneel or even if some of we fans in the stands may stand or sit. I don't even know if we will stand or sit. I don't know! But one thing I do know is that whatever will be done, it is ALL OF OUR 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHT to do so. If anything; we'll actually be in attendance to personally witness firsthand; this HISTORIC EVENT that has captivated the national spotlight over the past few days. We'll see it taking place live and in living color and how cool is that?"

Here's something that as a non American I'd really like to know. Before the protest, did everyone listened to the anthem and stood while listening to it (not just at the stadium but at home or wherever they saw it sang)? I really don't know and that would help me get a better view of the mindset just to have a more precise opinion on it.
