Well if we are using the rules game how many people disrespect the flag and you have no problem with it according to the "rules".

What are you referring to?

Nobody cares about if your interest is waning. Why do y'all people on both sides keep attention pouring lol? If you're going to do something just do it but I guess for discussion purposes maybe you have to say such. I can kinda get that.

You care enough to quote my post. And I'd bet quite a few folks care because they feel the same way.

The rules of the flag and yes I responded to your post don't mean I care. As we see even from your quotes it was more than one thing I spoke on and the other part was there so I said flip it. I also don't mean care in the way you're trying to use it but as normal when people go emotional or feel attacked they start wanting to be super technical. You know I mean and if you didn't now you do that none of the big corps care if your interest are wanting esp being you're probably old anyway. The people making money off this could use your little money of course but are more worried about younger consumers with a longer period of spending more money in theory.

I don't have any clue what you're typing or what language you're trying to speak in. I had a question about your post:

Who disrespects the flag that I have no problem with?

And you are right about one thing, I am getting old and that should bother any big corporations. I have spending capital and they want my money, just like they want yours.

Didn't say it was all on him, just that he blew it up. We went from a few guys to every team, now it's inescapable.
Just like anyone else that has freedom of speech, so does he. Stop being offended by words. If you don't like what the man said then forget he said it. It's not like he has power to say, "fire players" and then it happens. He has an opinion, just like on this board when someone has an opinion. We tolerate different opinions here even if you know that other opinion is that of an idiot. The President said something unpopular...so what. It wasn't him that "blew it up", it was those that oppose him that blew it up to suck others into the agenda, including the liberal media so, as the great Bill Parcells once said... "consider yourself sucked".

Oh no not the you don't know what language card. I always find that card funny when most times its coming from people with very little actual smarts. Read the rules on how the flag should be used and then come back to me on who isn't disrespecting the flag old timer. You have spending capital but you don't have as much as younger people overall. Of course they would want mine I'm in the target demo with more cash than most so I'm not surprised they'd want mine. Yours they can do without because its more of me at least age wise and potentially kid wise than you to make up for it. Hopefully you're smart enough to understand this.

Never mind. I won't ask the question again since you can't answer it.

And I'm not sure where young people are getting all this capital. I have the benefit of having a good salary with my company because of the number of years I've had with that company. The starting salaries today, especially for college graduates, are pretty putrid and fewer and fewer companies are offering pensions or quality health care plans. If you're doing well for yourself at a young age, good for you. You're one of the lucky ones.

You use a flag? I display a flag. Large flags the size of a football field are exceptions to the code that says flags should not be displayed flat. It's the only way they can be displayed without a flag pole sky scrapper high.

lol

not a chance. No one is going anywhere. This obsession with TV ratings is comical, it only affects advertising prices. The numbers are still astronomical. People act as if the nfl is getting the NHL's ratings or something.

The same fans who burn players jerseys just buy news down the road and go back to enjoying the games. A bunch of loudmouth's who need attention over an issue where if they dont support the players in this matter it just shows they dont support the players at all and probably have a how should I put this?? Low opinion on the predominant race in the nfl.

I for one hope this group of extreme right wing morons do boycott the nfl and go away forever, its the best thing for everyone.

there is plenty going on in the world of cars going left for 3 hours that will make them feel right at home and keep their weekends occupied.
It is now "extreme right wing moron" to love and respect the USA over a stupid game huh?

Wow. The loonies are out of control.

I've seen the Daily Show (and I like Jon Stewart) argue against militarization of the police and I thought they had some mistruths and misleading information in their argument. For instance, their one argument was that the tiny little town of Doraville, GA had bought some of the expensive military grade weapons and vehicles and made it seem ridiculous that lil' ole Doraville, GA would do that because what crime could happen out there so severe in lil' ole Doraville, GA.

What the Daily Show didn't let people know is that Doraville, GA borders Atlanta, GA is the town limits of Doraville and Atlanta are so screwy that often times you don't know if you're driving thru Doraville if you're actually in Doraville or Atlanta. Much like Hapeville, GA. And Doraville had a huge spike in violent crime and had 2 separate incidents with 2 different drug gangs where the officers were severely out-gunned by the drug gangs and didn't have the proper equipment for drug raids.

Essentially, with the Iraq War being over and the military not needing much of the weapons and equipment anymore, they have been made available to police departments across the country. I do think that there should be better training of police officers on how to use military grade weapons and equipment and better procedures in place, but when the bad guys have more firepower than the cops (like they did in the North Hollywood bank shootout), it's a danger for everybody.

For instance, here's an example of an arrest I have a problem with the police procedures. The officer was legally within his right to arrest the suspect on the scorching asphalt, but I have to believe there is a better way to handle the arrest.

Such depth of thought and insight. You even spammed my post in your post. Good job.

Trump did all of the things I wrote.

Please post the quote where Trump said anyone who protests police should be fired.

Note: The quote should say the above, and not something else that you twist to mean what you want it to.

I said that he said the players protesting the police should be fired. I get that you want to separate the anthem protest and protesting police but they are one and the same.

Sorry, replace "anyone" with players, and provide the quote.

He said "I wish one of these guys(the owners) would say 'Get that SOB off the field'...You're Fired"

He didn't say everyone or all or they had to be fired........just sharing his thoughts like the rest of us

and this came after a week of back and forth with other entitled athletes that were dissing him and the WH visit......it is all tied together....... and it wasn't a policy speech...........it was at an election rally for the GOP in Alabama

everyone from TV celebs, newspapers, athletes, pundits and protestors can call him every name in the book but they cry like wussies when he hits back.... the same MO you use

Then you read his twitter feed and other public comments and you realize how full of **** you are. I love how you hold the POTUS to a low standard. Typical of political tribalism.

I live in Atlanta. Doraville and all the other inner-ring suburbs might as well just be neighborhoods of the city. I'll also tell you that Doraville is not exactly the nicest of places to live, or visit, or shop, or do any sort of business in.

Yup. I used to live in Atlanta for 9 years and drove thru Doraville every day for work for 6 of those years.
