If a law is passed (or let's just say an employers mandate) that states failing to stand for the flag while the Anthem is played is disrespectful is your "opinion" on the matter still "subjective"?

There is already a directive that states NFL players should stand and place their hand over their heart when the Anthem is played. Am I disrespecting my employer for failing to do so?   

Yes, your opinion on the matter is still subjective, even with the law. The objective (factual) statement for that would be "according to the law, it is disrespectful to not stand for the flag while the anthem is playing." It does not change the subjectivity of one's personal opinions just because the law states it as such. I don't consider it disrespectful to use an American flag paper plate or to print the flag on a box, but according to the US Flag Code, it is. So objectively, according to the law of the country, it is disrespectful to do so. My subjective opinion is that it is not. Just because an authority presents an opinion does not change the fact that it is an opinion, and opinions are subjective by their nature.

For the last bit, that is still subjective. Therefore, it depends.

My employer says that I should bike or walk to work instead of driving, but I'm a fatass and prefer to drive because at the end of the day I am too tired to walk home even though I live close enough where walking to work would be no issue. They said I should do something, but I'm not. Am I disrespecting them?
