American Football Stars Drop To Their Knees During National Anthem To Defy Trump by WotzupNG(op): 11:19am On Sep 25, 2017
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.

When he should really be worried about Kim Jong Un, those guys mean business.
NK's military and leaders are always looking so grim and serious in pictures.
Donald Trump is a very petty man

I think these black movement of a thing has been hijacked by anti-americans who hate that Donald Trump is setting things right.

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?

Democracy is not about disrespecting your country and its national anthem.

This is anti-america

Peaceful protest
Re: American Football Stars Drop To Their Knees During National Anthem To Defy Trump by FeloniousFelon:
Idiots

If this happened during a super eagles match in protest of the mass killings of unarmed civilians by Nigerian military, most of the zombies will denounce the players as unpatriotic

Instead of this ingrate to take his frustration to his dead beat daddy he feels discriminated

Why are niggers generally foolish?

in Nigeria players don't have minds to opening protest against their state governors talk less of president. if you do so here your career don finish for that club or country be that.


Considering doing a roof parapet?
check out price comparison between a concrete cast in suite against polystyrene parapet.
Polystyrene parapet is light weight and doesn't have much impact on the land.
excellent usage on swampy environment.

Re: American Football Stars Drop To Their Knees During National Anthem To Defy Trump by FeloniousFelon:
NFL stadiums are being deserted since this stupidity

Americans are burning their season tickets, cutting cable subsrcriptions for NFL games and burning their NFL paraphernalia.

Nice going guys.

This is what happens when you overpay a bunch of idiots to run around and hit themselves.

No worries, statistically, most of these players will be broke in 5yrs

I will also suggest you google this guy Colin Kaepernick who started all this nonesense
