I’m so disgusted with all these NFL teams kneeling during the national anthem. It shows blatant disrespect for all it represents. There are other ways to protest.

The Rocket Man has enough killing power to wipe out California as we speak. Fallout could drift all the way here. We don’t have a fallout shelter and, if we did, it wouldn’t hold all the people that would need to get in it. This needs to be addressed by the public. We’re talking the lives of millions of people.

Trump’s plan to reduce corporate taxes from 35 percent to 20 percent is criticized as making the rich richer. Corporations do not pay tax. Consumers pay the tax and corporations merely collect it and pay the IRS. The 15 percent reduction theoretically will remain in the consumer’s pocket to spend and create more jobs. Reagan’s tax cuts did that and the IRS collected more taxes, not less.

Hey, GOP, Roy Moore getting elected is not going to hinder you guys from doing nothing.

With all the people who sit down during the national anthem, now we want to pick that issue? A lot of people sit down during the national anthem. Pick on them first.

The football owners, players and coaches are wrong. They should stand up for the flag. Don’t watch them on TV or go to the games.

Republicans in Georgia said vote for me and I will repeal Obamacare. That was the greatest broken political promise ever.

Seniors want a station that plays Southern gospel music. We don’t like this contemporary music.

If football players can’t stand for our veterans, then they should get on their knees and pray to God they don’t lose life and limb.

Trump is not the moral authority when it comes to patriotism. When he had the chance to serve his country, he chickened out.

Don’t let preachers rob you of truth with traditions of man. Friday Sept. 29th is Jesus’ birthday. He was conceived Dec. 25th when Mary ran to Elizabeth. You can figure it out easy.

I do not approve of the NFL protests, but I do approve of living in a country where non-violent protests are not illegal. You “super rights” need to consider this. All the condemnation is a scary trend.

Christians need to open their eyes and see what kind of man Trump is. I stand for America, the flag, our military and our veterans. I cannot stand for Trump calling Jeff Sessions an idiot and the football player protests you-know-whats. I can’t stand for that. He’s playing you.

The president is wrong. Instead of complaining about the flag and people saluting, I’d rather hear him say to the vets we’re going to give y’all more money so you don’t have to sleep on the streets and under the bridges, give them money to buy medicine and take care of their families.

Obama refused to serve in peace time. What does that make him?

I love football and I watch all football on Saturdays from noon to midnight, but on Sundays, I’ve stopped watching the NFL.

If NFL players want to protest, they should do it on their day off.
