This comment will reveal my feelings on the topic but that's fine. If you want to protest racial injustice - can't you find a way to do it that doesn't offend soldiers and a lot of other people? Considering that many have fought in wars and lost family, limbs and life, isn't it reasonable that military families would feel offended by this?

US soldiers fought to uphold the US Constitution and the country, not the flag.

In our age, “nationalism’s chief symbol of faith and central object of worship is the flag,” wrote historian Carlton Hayes.
The American Character stated: “That these daily rituals are religious has been at last affirmed by the Supreme Court in a series of cases.”

First, if Jones' players sit, they will still play. He cares more about winning and money than he does America. Second, of course it is offensive. That's why it's being done, it's drawn TONS of attention. The problem is the message is starting to get lost because people are extremely offended by this and aren't even willing to open up a dialogue about it. I'm glad the NFL is looking into it now and deciding what will be best moving forward.
