They are obviously utilizing a national stage to protest for a specific purpose. BLM. They are not protesting against the national anthem. It's simply a mechanism to get a point across.

Again, I may not agree with their beliefs or agree with their actions, but let's not make it into something more than what it is. It's a black lives matter protest, plain and simple. Which is their individual belief.

The NFL won't shut this down but they won't allow Dallas Cowboys to wear a decal on their helmets supporting the fallen officers. Where is the injustice for that?

I'm not saying they shouldn't protest but the flag is the wrong thing to protest. The Flag is the symbol that allows them to do that protest without the fear of persecution. They should actually be supporting it.
