Alright tough guy. Calm your tats please. Ready to attack arent you?

Because Trump said get those SOB's off the field. And the news twisted his words. People have the right to stand or sit. It doesnt harm me. I have plenty of friends and family in the miltary so I do it for them not for me. Im not exactly religious yet I hold my hand over my heart and respect "In God We Trust", and respect the flag and what it means for this country.

I ask a simple question and you respond with projection.  Alright, nice to know what I'm dealing with here.

Bolded: Again - what does that have to do with what anyone has said in this thread?  Yes, you believe that happened, but it's irrelevant.  How do you not see how this is doing exactly what you're critisizing the media of?  This is quintesential stawmanning because you don't like the point that was made here.

Accept I didnt spin anything. Trump attacks athletes for "disrpecting" the flag. In his mind not standing is disrpecting and wants them fired. I dont think they should be fired but I guess it sort of is disrpectful. But whatever it is your right to stand or sit. Again I dont care. Id just rather it not be everywhere. Its at home, work and now every damn channel. Anyways back to my point. Trump attacks athletes and calls them SOB's and that turns into a racial matter because 90% of the news likes to spin Trumps words. Trump brings his own hate but the news adds more and its not needed. 

 

What dont I like exactly? Am I not able to express my opinion on the flag and the matter that follows it?

 

EDIT: I do apologize for "projecting" to you. I could have explained my point much better in the first post. I thought I typed more than I did.
