When my president defended a thug who bum rushed law enforcement...I didn't take a knee.
When my president ordered businesses to spend unnecessary funds to appease a minority of people who need mental intervention far more than they need their own toilet...I didn't take a knee.
When my president ordered that words 'one nation under God' be removed from the pledge of allegiance...I didn't take a knee.
When my president lied to me and said I could keep my doctors and my premiums would go down...I didn't take a knee.
When my president spent my tax dollars in foreign lands to interfere in their elections...I didn't take a knee.
While my president sat by passively and enabled ISIS to emerge as a stronger force dedicated to spreading Islamic ideals by committing murder, rape and torture...I didn't take a knee.

In all that time I never disrespected our Country, our Armed Forces and Veterans, or our Nation. I remained vigilant. And now I have a new president. As for football? There's always college. The NFL has lost its fan base. It was a shame the NFL was so arrogant.
