Take TV cameras off the flag protesters
I fully support the tenet that American citizens have the right to support their beliefs or disappointments in our country. But this latest expression has become an expression of disrespect to our nation, flag and military by either sitting, kneeling, or raising a fist during the national anthem.
As a supporter of our First Amendment right, I believe they should be able to continue this despicable behavior. I do not however, believe that the cameras should continue to televise it during the opening ceremonies of sports events.
