They are not protesting the anthem.
bullshit
If you think they have a problem with the anthem, you’ve got the real problem because you aren’t thinking logically.
If they have no problem with the Anthem, why are they protesting during the Anthem?
Because we’re talking about it! Because you’re mad about it! They want to draw attention to their cause, and it sure as shit worked because we’ve had this conversation several times. They want you and everyone who shares your opinion to turn your anger towards the object of their protest–the reason why they’re disrupting the oh-so precious Anthem.
