WotzupNG:

After US President, Donald Trump made a statement in which he said sportsmen who disrespect America should be fired by their Clubs, many American Football Stars didn’t risen in protest against the statement, they knelt down.

Players from Clubs like New Orleans Saints, Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, Baltimore Ravens etc were seen on their knees while the National Anthem was playing.

Those who didn’t kneel were seen standing with arms linked in protest to the statement.

Guy, Stop posting FAKE videos here please. Only the video from the Ravens, this one and the other calling for burning as respect to the military are real and recent.

Others are old videos of fans showing their unhappiness with their team's performance

you think fighting a war depends on how serious u look in pictures? When push comes to shove there can be only one outcome from a confrontation btw NK and USA. It won't even be a contest.

If Blacks are getting killed, is that why you should disrespect your country so openly? What message do they think they are passing across to foreigners?

Except that Trump goofed.

The Supreme Court in the US has ruled that flag burning in itself is not illegal and is an affirmation of the first amendment (i.e. freedom of speech).

So I don't get what Trump is saying when the height of disrespect to a nation would be burning of its flag. And if flag-burning isn't illegal, then kneeling down during the anthem isn't either.

Trump need to get his act together and focus on more important things like the current standoff with North Korea, passing a repeal for Obamacare, getting tax reform done, which are issues mostly at the core of his electioneering campaign instead of beating about the bush and trying to score cheap political points.
He has only succeeded in escalating an insignificant issue into prominence. His abrasive leadership style won't lead the US anywhere.

You are lying. Put links to where Americans are burning their season's tickets or cutting their cable subscriptions. People like you are very annoying. You think this is Nigeria. The vast majority of Americans agree with the NFL players. Even entertainers have joined them to kneel in protest. You can't ask people to be fired and called sons of bitches because they disagree with your policies and expect them to not exercise their first amendment rights.

don't mind him joor, he thinks they r Nigerians that believes lies n propaganda easily.......
