Considering this recent kerfuffle I don't think arguing that Kaepernick's earlier protests had nothing to do with either the flag or national anthem is viable.

There's a photo currently circulating of the Betsy Ross flag being on display at Obama's inauguration, which makes Kaepernick's objections all the weirder.
As for the actual American Nazi Party thing, I get it if a symbol is so widely co-opted that almost anybody would make a different association. The swastika is an obvious example here. But if almost everybody has to go back to the history books to find out what the big deal is, it's not worth making a big deal over.
(I still don't understand why people suddenly think it's okay to have the flag on shoes, though. I don't think it would have been considered okay when I was a kid. Not that I personally care; it's just weird.)Last edited by KingsGambit; 07-04-2019, 08:02 PM."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

I'm still confused about why anyone should care about what Colin Kaepernick thinks about anything other than football. He has no training or experience that incline me to lend any sort of credibility to anything he says that doesn't relate to football."If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it. No one wants to know about your faith or unbelief, your orders are to perform the act of obedience on the spot. Then you will find yourself in the situation where faith becomes possible and where faith exists in the true sense of the word." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship
