I have co-workers from Spain, Portugal and all over Central and South America.  Perhaps my original post was unclear:


Much like the entirety of this silly faux-outrage over the kneeling, it has never had anything to do with the flag or disrespect of it or the importance of such respect. The "it" refers to the act of kneeling, as in "why is kneeling seen as disrespectful?" Many of my coworkers, foreign-born and American alike, see kneeling as a sign of reverence/solemnity, and not disrespect. 

Perhaps there is a boilerplate military-esque response you can let me in on. 

If they don't get it, I'm guessing that they just memorized meaningless lines in order to pass the test for citizenship?
