Anyone who has the opinion that kneeling is disrespectful to the flag should be free to do so without backlash, because it is. 

But you feel free to use Colin Kaepernick as a beacon of flag respect; I'll roll with people like Avery Price:

Lots of people want to stand for the anthem and do.  Not sure why you had to hide behind a 10 year old rather than just make the case for why you want to.
