I think White Supremacists have the right of free speech. I also think they are SOB's. The two thoughts are not mutually exclusive; except for someone using false logic to justify their dislike of me.

Already in your own head you have decided this is a Right vs Left issue?

SPC Erich Guenther - That ques a diffent issue the subject here has nothing at all to do with flag desecration. You might want to read the articles you link to, otherwise, like in this case, you look silly

An valiant. if a bit sad effort, ftoblow smoke and distract even if it is more than a bit transparent.

Nobody is desacrating a flag at the NFL. At Keats to anyone that knows what the word description means. Look up the word before you make more of a fool of youself.

As a said the link you posted has no relevence here is there us no desacration of any kind happening.

SFC Tony Bennett - My bad....the NFL Game Operations Manual states this...not the NFL rulebook...
"The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem.
During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses."
And yes, I do understand the difference in "must" and "should". You "should" drive in the right lane, you "should" stop at stop signs, you "should" not jump off buildings, and you "must" have a broken keyboard with the amount of capitalization you used.

SFC Tony Bennett - funny thing is even the FAKE rule doesn't require them to stand. Those pages do not exist in the 2017 NFL rule book.

CPT Alan Bentson - I have to take your word for that, but as quoted previously it does not it says, "should" not, will or shall. Therefore not required by rule!
