Now why would it cause an uproar? The answer is that it is viewed as a disrespectful act.
There has never been a protest ever that was not intended to cause an uproar. That is the point of protest.
But it was never intended to be disrespectful to the military. It was simply a statement that the United States has problems that need to be fixed. Same exact message that Donald Trump used every day in his campaign.
The people who opposed the kneeling knew they could not disagree with the actual issue the players were bringing up so instead they tried to twist it as an attack on the military.
