Cartoon: The Flag, The Anthem And The Nature Of Respect

Snopes: CIA Director Comments On NFL Flag Dispute: "Put Me Down With Kaepernick"

Alan: I see taking a knee as more respectful of the flag and the national anthem than standing up.

Bending one's knee is the ultimate sign of respect, regard and the fundamental posture of prayerfulness.

American conservatives are on "high alert," continually scanning the horizon for ways to feel offended.

This touchiness results from the understandable "moral tenderness" of not being particularly patriotic except in formulary ways, like sports fans cheering for their team's colors.

Oddly, as quick as conservatives are to defend The Second Amendment (which, by the way, is not under attack), it never occur to them to defend THE FIRST.
