Sean Brown AMERICA’S FREEDOM FIGHTERS –

The Green Bay Packers were given a huge wake up call last night.

Amid the growing controversy surrounding our flag and Anthem, the Packers players asked their fans to link their arms together as a show of “solidarity” with the league and its players.

Players, coaches, and trainers all said they’d be linking their arms together during the National Anthem to represent a coming together of people who want “freedom, equality, tolerance, understanding and justice for those who have been unjustly treated, discriminated against or otherwise treated unfairly.”

“Those of us joining arms on Thursday will be different in so many ways, but one thing that binds us together is that we are all individuals who want to help make our society, our country and our world a better place,” the players said in the statement. “We believe that in diversity there can be UNI-versity. Intertwined, we represent the many people who helped build this country, and we are joining together to show that we are ready to continue to build.

“Let’s work together to build a society that is more fair and just.”

Of course, such platitudes sound great on paper, but what they failed to realize is that regardless of what they say, the country sees their demonstrations as disrespectful to our country and those who’ve given their lives to defend it. After all, if I were to give someone the middle finger in protest of something, yet try to claim it wasn’t meant as an “F U,” it’s highly unlikely that they’d take it as anything other than an “F U.”

That’s what is happening with these protests.

So on Thursday night when the players lined up on the field to do their little protest, fans had something else in mind entirely. In fact, not only did they refuse to link their arms together like a bunch of children, but they both saluted our flag while breaking out in a chant of “USA! USA! USA!”

It was a beautiful thing to watch.

Boom! That’s how you do it, Cheese Heads!

While these players may be able to get people out in the bitter cold to watch a football game, what they’ll never be able to do is get us to disrespect our flag or the country that even makes it possible for them to make millions playing a child’s game.

They’re fighting a losing battle, and last night, they were given the rude awakening they needed.

For their sake, let’s hope they learned their lesson.
