In regards to the anthem protests and the NFL's new policy

I don't understand why they don't do that already. They should be sitting round chatting to each other. Kneeling is still quite respectful and people are loosing their shit over it. What is it with America and the perception of the anthem, the flag and the constitution as something holy that is blasphemous to disrespect? I blame making children say the pledge of allegiance every day at school.

Americans need to learn to shit on their flag in public. Because at the moment it's a tool of the right to enslave them. People need to be free to criticise their own country and what it actually stands for if there is any chance of making it better.

So much for freedom of speech.
