As Jefferson said: "Dissent is the highest form of Patriotism."
Here Are Some Ways People Disrespect The Flag Daily Based On Flag Code
Taking a knee is not one of them.
President Donald Trump accused athletes on Friday of disrespecting the American flag by silently protesting, but taking a knee isnt covered in the U.S. Flag Codes respect section.
On June 14, 1923, or Flag Day, a federal code was put in place that would serve as a guideline for how to handle the American flag. There are several sections in the code about proper national anthem conduct, how to display the flag, and yes, even how to respect the flag.
The code does state that everyone should stand at attention facing the flag during the national anthem, but standing or kneeling isnt actually covered in the respect portion of the code.
Here are some things that Americans do on a daily basis, however, that are disrespectful:

Stanhope On... Why Atheists Have Better Morals
Doug Stanhope on nationalism
&t=243sSanders will argue that the ACA should stay in place for now
Not sure why so many think him arguing for single payer is going to hurt the ACA when he has already said protecting the ACA for now is his top priority. Take a breath everyone, Sanders is sharp as a tack and he knows exactly what angles to work to protect the ACA until they are in a position to pass single payer.
Even Stuart Varney thinks we are headed down the European collectivist road
This is from July 31st and starts out with them showing Sanders pushing singer payer HC.
Varney: "I think we are on the European road. I think we in America are moving down that collectivist road. How long to you think before we become a Denmark or a France or something like that?"
With all due respect David Gergin, Morning Joe and MSM, I believe this will be our finest hour
Public support for Singer payer 60%. Public support for Graham Cassidy 24%. No the sky is not falling.
