I'm Boycotting NFL Games - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Freedom is not free. I asked my father about the nfl players taking a knee and he personally does not care and firmly believe everyone has the right to love and hate one another as they please.

My dad is in his mid 80s, joined the army at age 15 and spent some of his best years fighting for freedom and for survival in the Korean war. For his actions he was only awarded a silver star and remembers good and bad times serving this country.

The act of taking a knee is not a disrespectful act.

If it is ok and expected for us to do in church as christians, to ask a woman to marry you, or in respect for the wounded or injured, why not ok for a protest?

Because "some people" want to keep you "in check" and have you behave a certain way.

Last but not least anyone who thinks racism is not alive today is a fool. I believe that a majority of people are not racist, but this problem does exist. Trust me.

I personally do not watch sports until the playoffs come, and that is for all sports.

They all make more money than me and do not have the financial challenges of the average person. No sleep being lost here!
