Drawing attention to the cause, he is doing that, except, what is his cause and or solution? What does he see changing? If there is a improvement because of him sitting, then great. I just don't see what he is doing will change anything. _________________________ Do the right thing!

While I'm cool with the tradition of playing the anthem before sporting events, I've always wondered why we do it. Much less why some people are adamant about it. But now that it's the norm, it's an indictment to question it. He obviously hates the troops. _________________________ Mike

"I said from the beginning I was against oppression, I was against the system of oppression. I'm not going to show support for that system. And to me, the oppressor isn't going to allow you to vote your way out of your oppression."
