argument: (noun) a coherent series of reasons, statements, or facts intended to support or establish a point of view


See the above definition for argument..... You are obviously on the side of those kneeling and therefore are "arguing" your position is an attempt to support your point of view. Your question, however, is completely off base and irrelevant to the original topic. Attempting to compare/shame the opposition for not standing at their house while the national anthem is playing over the television is no where near the same as someone who is representing their employer, their city, their state, and one could argue their country since apparently there is nothing more American than football (I wholeheartedly disagree with that assertion). That's probably why you are the only one answering your ridiculous question, but if it makes you happy, no. I do not watch football to begin with and if the national anthem were to play over my television, I probably wouldn't perform the same rituals that are expected from any decent American who is present for the anthem. However, if I were there in person, I absolutely would stand and pay respect to my country's flag and anthem.


I honestly have no clue as to the relevance of the "equal" comment, so I won't comment on that.
