    They are actually in violation of accepted forms for displaying the flag. Take them to the legion and burn them properly, as a flag is supposed to be when it is retired.

    Can I respect the veterans, flag, military, and those that are kneeling or is that against the rules?

    You might be able to do that, but not without being accused being a socialist libtard by someone who doesn't respect your right to think for yourself.

    How does that old song go? There's your Side and my side, and then there's the truth.

    I detect sarcasm, but I think it's a legitimate question. Can you respect them all without feeling conflicted? Just because I believe in the 1st Amendment doesn't mean I believe every opinion deserves respect in my heart. Maybe you can do it.

    The same folks who've been yelling racism in policing and are kneeling during the anthem are now whining that the police aren't doing their job in Baltimore and Chicago. ROFL.

    Look...here's the deal...if crime-ridden communities want thugs off the streets, it's impossible to do so if cops can't "stop, question, and frisk." That's how you prevent crime. Jeez Louise, I was a "victim" of that growing up in small town Americana. the cop was doing his job, making sure I wasn't a vandal or a burglar, etc.

    Cops can either be pro-active or reactive. Reactive is a chalkline around a dead body and taping off the scene.

    If you are in the weight room, please do not sit on one machine for 15 mins and do 3 sets in a row on the same machine. Do one set and then move to another machine and then come back. It's not real helpful to take 5 min breaks in between sets. I am busy and have things to do, and I don't spend hours at the gym. I have a 30 min rule, if I am in the weight room longer than 30 mins I am wasting my time, so please stop wasting mine and move your fat ass to the next machine.

    Please. Social revolution is the "in" thing now. You are one of the cool kids if you're one of Kap's kids.

    We went from giving respect to social revolution, OK . Now get back in line, lol .

    In all seriousness the shame is the commercial was actually really good, had some really good athletes in it who have over come a lot. It's a shame Nike allowed those folks to be over shadow by Kapernick. That is my rant the other athletes did not deserve to be dragged into this BS

    Little tiny bit of sarcasm but a legitimate question. I truly believe all of them.

    You can, but it becomes difficult when these things are put at odds against one another. We are far more likely to accomplish something if we have some commonality.
    Our country is amazing. The quality of life that the majority of us enjoy is mind boggling. The freedoms we enjoy and take for granted are amazing.
    Of course there is room for improvement. But there is so much to be thankful for. Refusing to acknowledge that is difficult to see and unimaginable in many people mind.

    No rants from me today.

    At the cabin for the weekend with my family and friends. No distractions.

    Have a good day everyone.

    I haven't seen it yet, but I probably will agree with you once I see it. I don't see Kap as another Jackie Robinson, for example. The vitriol and threats that man experienced were beyond the pale.

    Scamming taxi driver in Mexico City. I checked the other day at the hotel about taxi service at 6:00 am no problem asked if the taxis take amex was told yes. Get in the taxi doorman talks to the driver and tells him Delta for drop off I asked take american express? Si was the answer I get to the airport and take the card out, no take credit card he says, I cursed and took out the only cash I had a 2000 peso note he no take that either. Pissed as hell asked him why he does not take legal tender, too big he says so I have to trust that POS with my bag while I go in to find a cash machine. I go out and before I took my bag I said F you, F your mother too you son of S--t and go to hell. Needless to say he did not get a tip. Scammer. My only regret is that I did not wipe my balls on the money I gave him.

    Thought I was done for the day sitting in Houston terminal A at a bar and grill and they intentionally misspell words on the menu how is that considered marketing or witty? Bakon, Chikin, cheez etc it is not witty it is stupid.

    LOL. ROFL. The last four or five sentences are just priceless. He probably didn't understand English but I'll bet your tone was translatable.
