Who get a pass and who doesnt.

If you stand up at your house for the national anthem and hold your hand on your heart every monday and sunday sometimes thursdays games. Please say i. That way we know you are not being disrespectful to the flag?

If you dont stand up then what are you saying about yourself......

Are you boycotting your friends that sitting down during the anthem at you house.

Ill wait. This should be good
Hard to imagine you don't know, but I'll give it a try.

1-I'm not a multi-milionaire who thinks he's beyond reproach
2-I'm not wearing a team uniform(representing an owner's team)
3-I'm not displaying my beliefs at an inappropriate time for the world to see
4-I'm not a poor roll model for kids that look up to me, to behave the same
5-I'm not doing this on company time
6-Unlike many of these players, I actually KNOW why I would be taking a knee

See any differences?

You never answered the main question about YOU. Do you stand up or dont stand up
Do you get a pass and friends get a pass or they get the same treatment like the players

Just asking
1 so you consider you self lower then them

2 are your not representing your family last name.
3 so your beliefs at home infront of family kids are dont matter ?
4 is it ok to sit at home drink a beer while watching a game
5 personal time very important?
6. Yes you may actually know why.....but we are still trying to figure out why

Will i get equal treatment if we commit the same crime?

Totally different scenario from watching at home or being in the stadium. If I would be watching it live in the stadium there's no chance in hell that I would be doing anything other than standing up with my hand over my heart in respect for the men and woman who fought/fight and died for my freedom. I'm all for peoples rights to protest even if our beliefs aren't the same on the subject being protested but these guys can protest on their own damn time without throwing the country and our armed forces and our flag a big F U!

First off, what you thought you heard about Jerry Jones was inaccurate. He was never quoted as saying if any of his team members kneel he'll kick them off the team. But that's the internet for you. I have some advice for you. Don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.

Secondly, Jerry Jones and the Cowboys kneeled in protest as a show of unity BEFORE the flag was brought onto the field, and once that happened they ALL stood for the playing of our national anthem.

So my question is, as far as Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys are concerned in this subject matter, what are you so mad about?

So would alphaman's argument be considered a straw man or an ad hominen fallacy? He's definitely misrepresenting the argument to make it easier for him to discredit (straw man), but he is also attacking the other side's character instead of the content of their argument (ad hominen)..... Guess we can call it a compound fallacious argument. Either way, it's a ridiculous comparison and doesn't even warrant a response. Nice try though.

Im just trying to make the argument equal by including us in the argument and not 1 group of people. Doesn't that make us equal or it doesnt?

We are human right. We both can hear the anthem and see the flag right? At home or in the stadium am i not correct. If im wrong please explain you answer.

Im asking questions, no arguments here.

and no one but me answered the main question? Do you stand up or you dont stand up.

If we are suppose to be all equal. Then why are we not treated equal. Lol

In all honesty I do not stand . That's because in all my years I have never caught the beginning of a game . I have never watched another team except the saints . I have bought saints items and have numerous saints tee shirts that I will trash . I do belong to an organization and we have 2 meetings a month and pledge to the flag and sing the national anthem and there will be only one place to pass if you take a knee . I have nothing against people protesting for what they believe but to me if you take a knee to protest during the national anthem you are protesting your country . These people believe all the crap the news media is spreading cause they hate our Pres. They are the ones dividing our country .

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.
