High School Refs Walk Out as Protest Against National Anthem Kneelers

October 29, 2017| by Donn Marten

Being that NFL players along with other celebs serve as role models to the nation’s youth it is only logical that many youngsters have taken to kneeling during the national anthem.

With the multimillionaire meatheads unable to even articulate what they are protesting – other than bullying the league into just handing a job to Colin Kaepernick – the youthful kneelers incorrectly believe that they are striking at a white supremacist society that has them under its thumb. Not a positive view of life at such an early age.

Seems the high school kids that disrespected the flag have met the requirements of joining the NFL.

As far as the refs that walked off, they should run for Congress.

High School Referees Take Kneeling Nonsense into Their Own Hands
By Andrew West October 29, 2017
 

The NFL’s latest controversy has been a difficult one to manage for the league, who have handcuffed themselves to Roger Goodall’s do-nothing attitude.

The league itself is in shambles.  The National Anthem of the United States has been turned from a symbol of freedom and leadership into a soapbox for athletes to demonstrate their political views, all while the NFL management team sits back and allows it to happen.  They are the only ones with the power to change what Americans are finding so despicable about modern football players…

…Or are they?

Since actions on the field before the start of the game are subject to the jurisdiction of the officials, they should have thrown theirs flags, issued unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, THEN walked off the field.
