So being humble is a bad thing to you to give those that died for your rights?
Ok, but I still am waiting for how kneeling is disrespectful? You have talked about why you stand. I understood it, but I am still waiting for someone to explain why kneeling is disrespectful because I can't see it.
I DO read. Try logic, it is a sign of respect. It is also a submissive position.
Please don't assume I do not understand how we should respect people who have fought for us. I do, which is why I used to march in uniform. We also bow our heads in prayer.
If anything kneeling is more if a sign of respect than standing. Just because it isn't part of the tradition. Does not make it wrong. Bowing and kneeling in most countries is a sign of respect.
Taught being the word. My question is if you bow and kneel before God. Why is a sign and disrespect to do this for the Anthem. Surely, the principle is the same?
If people were burning the flag, saying disrespectful things. I would understand your point. But, it is the highest form of respect a person can give.
Are we not talking your rights here rather than the aspect of perhaps it being seen as treason?
Urm I have to say this. But even here in some employment we have to sign a social media contract. In that contract you have to state that none of your actions on social media can have a negative impact on your employer. If you do, it's gross misconduct and fired.
To a degree I agree with you. But I am not responsible for what others do. But I am more than prepared to say what I mean and mean what I say.
There will always be challenging people online, offline although I may not like the wsy some people behave. I cannot control their behaviour. But be sure I will say so if I don't value it. Like the thread is an example of this.
What I do take offence too is that nobody actually values injustice in any shape or form. Disagreeing is fine. It's the intent that people use this feature when it becomes malice. It certainly has for a few people and there are those that are and have been subjected to it. That isn't right in my mind. No matter how much I agree or disagree with someone. It then becomes personal. But these people are fully aware of what they are doing.
The forum for most part is the same people, I have no problem with that, but it is hardly an incentive for other people to join when they too are subjected to certain behaviour. Some people have no problem with trolls. In fact they find it entertaining. I don't. If you have to be offensive, then claim someone is too sensitive because you are. Urm take a good look in the mirror. The world doesn't need more insensitive people who think about just themselves.
Urm you'd think so right? Why do you think the NFL are applying fines if they do or don't choose the option to remain in the locker room?
Apparently, you cannot exercise your rights at work it seems. I think this applies more to public figures. Again causing a problem. People boycotted the NFL for the kneeling, even though you kneel before God as a sign of respect. Some saw it as disrespect. You are meant to stand. Roseanne exercises her right in a bad way she loses her job. People are up in arms.
I laughing after watching a recording of two people are caught on camera fly tipping. The bloke tells them to pick it right back up and to take it to tip. They reply with it's closed. He says take it tomorrow. How would you like someone to dump their stuff in your garden.
I am actually like wow, they picked it up and put it back in the car. I'm pretty sure being caught on camera swayed them.
I understand this, but we can choose which topics we would like to discuss. But I personally I looking at the mentality of a feature that to me is being abused.
Exactly Dee, I doubt any of us are actually saints. It would be a hard push to say we actually are.
But I am pointing towards people who are being childish and spiteful. This is the first time I have actually understood why some people assume why people work in groups. Rather than accepting that people have just built friendships or relationships based on a common ground.
For me that is what a forum is about. i don't mind being naive to the BS of forum politics, but don't slap it in my face for me to see it. Because I will speak on it.
I gotta go to work. Have a lovely day where possible
