Absolutely, and I don't think Kaepernick would disagree with that. I think there are still some problems though, especially with how we police, which is the crux of Kaepernick's stance.

Indeed. Me, I stand for the National Anthem, though I don't have much flag worship in me. It's just a piece of cloth to me, but I respect others that view it differently especially veterans of war. That's mainly why I stand up. But I understand Kaepernick's point and respect his right to choose to sit/kneel during its playing.

I watched their game last night and found it interesting the sideline reporter saying there were people in the crowd heckling and cussing at Kaepernick during the National Anthem. They're so angry at him over him disrespecting the flag/anthem, that they did it themselves.

Police are enforcing laws that Gov't passes. Most of the incidents that have happened, that they are so upset about, are happening in primarily Democratic strongholds for the past 40 or more years. Perhaps they should look at the people they are electing into office and the policies they have implemented. That would do more than disrespecting the flag, veterans and victims of terrorism on 9/11.
