[QUOTE="PtownIllini8, post: 1541539, member: 646012"] The people that are offended by kneeling are missing the point. The most cherished and protected right we have is to protest actions of our government, as set forth in the 1st Amendment. That's exactly what there protests are about and what kneeling is about. Nobody is protesting the flag or the Anthem! People didn't fight and die for this country to protect the flag and the Anthem, they fought and died to protect our way of life and the freedoms that we enjoy, the most important of which many would agree are set forth in the 1st Amendment. Kneeling during the Anthem is exercising those very cherished rights that our soldiers have fought and died to preserve. [/QUOTE]
