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.  

I agree the original intention was not to disrespect the Military. But it does. 

Now let's delve into Fred Logic:

Fred: I don't like the fact that they use cubed ice instead of crushed ice at McDonalds, some I'm going to pull out my peepee every time I order a happy meal

Sane Person: Fred, it is not proper decorum to pull your peepee out at McDonalds

Fred: You just can't disagree with the actual issue so you try to twist it into some obscene act.
