September 28, 20178 yr So if you're on trial. You're in court and the judge enters. The bailiff says, "All rise." You're going to take a knee? In that case the State has detained you. I think it is Apples and Oranges.
September 28, 20178 yr In that case the State has detained you. I think it is Apples and Oranges. Fine, make it the prosecution. Doesn't matter. The point is that kneeling in some instances is disrespectful and there will be consequences. There are no laws against not standing in the courtroom but you'd be stupid to not do it.

September 28, 20178 yr Do you think it is disrespectful to kneel for the National Anthem if you are a NFL Football Player? Yes, no matter who you are.
September 28, 20178 yr What if you are praying? No. I stated that already. The act of kneeling itself is not disrespectful--as PP1 pointed out in the first post.
September 28, 20178 yr No. I stated that already. The act of kneeling itself is not disrespectful--as PP1 pointed out in the first post. I want to be sure I understand. Is it okay for anyone to kneel and pray during the National Anthem?
September 28, 20178 yr I want to be sure I understand. Is it okay for anyone to kneel and pray during the National Anthem? If someone knelt during the National Anthem and said that he was praying for the country, I think very few would have issue with that (although a few still might). Again, I don't think the act itself is disrespectful. Time and place.

September 28, 20178 yr Sounds like you are on the fence. No. Think I've been pretty clear. Few things are 100%. Circumstances change things, don't you think?
September 28, 20178 yr No. Think I've been pretty clear. Few things are 100%. Circumstances change things, don't you think? You probably have been clear, I just want to make sure I have a clear understanding. Is it okay for anyone to kneel and pray to Allah during the National Anthem?
September 28, 20178 yr You probably have been clear, I just want to make sure I have a clear understanding. Is it okay for anyone to kneel and pray to Allah during the National Anthem? Again, if they come out and say that they are praying for the country, then I think that would be received differently than a protest.
September 28, 20178 yr Again, if they come out and say that they are praying for the country, then I think that would be received differently than a protest. So praying to Allah would be a protest?
September 28, 20178 yr So praying to Allah would be a protest? What? No. I have no idea where you're going.
September 28, 20178 yr What? No. I have no idea where you're going. Yes or No, is it okay for anyone to kneel and pray to Allah during the National Anthem?
