[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 4989582, member: 66082"] The fact that this thread still is going says something about the concerns of a lot of the posters on this board. I will say the Kapearnick protest did show me[I][B] how people perceive themselves to be "good" no matter reality that they distort their own arguments even to themselve[/B]s[/I]. Many will think I am criticizing the fans position in this post by accurately stating their actual position, but I am not. So many fans stated criticism and disagreement with the protests [B][I]was wanting to be free of politics in sports and being forced to get political messages from players,[/I][/B] and disrespecting the troops that last reason was an obvious lie. [B][I]But many fans felt they were the put upon victims from the players[/I][/B]. In reality,[B][I] many fans' actual position was they wanted politics in sports and wanted players forced to carry out the political message of patriotism by standing during the anthem[/I][/B]. And many fans wanted the leagues to force the [B][I]players to do this even against the will of those players by fining, suspending or getting rid of the players who didn't perform the political act of standing during the anthem.[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
