Would You Protest Against Your Rights?

Would you protest your right to protest? After all, it is your right to do so, right?

As silly as that sounds, that’s exactly what these multi-millionaire NFL football players are doing when they kneel in protest during the national anthem.

These football players are protesting against their constitutional first amendment right of free speech. That’s what our flag represents.

They are protesting against their “unalienable rights” of “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” as stated in the Declaration of Independence when they kneel. That’s what our flag represents.

Our flag also represents the equality of all people. Yes, that’s written down in plain English in our Declaration. NFL football players, that’s what you are kneeling in protest against.

Our flag also represents the idea and ideal that man cannot grant you these rights. Only God can and we in America will die in defense of your God given rights. NFL football player, that’s what you are kneeling in protest against.

These NFL football players are biting the hand of God that frees them and the people of a country that will defend them. Why don’t you give some serious thought about kneeling in obeisance to God in appreciation for all that He has given you? God is the source of your rights, your life and all that you have.
