NFL Viewing is down 7.5%. Do you watch the Bengals as Much? Causes of this?

I'm not a veteran so I guess I'll never know exactly what it feels like to see people kneel during the anthem. I will say that if I had to weather an insult towards my own profession or life or something before I watched football I think I'd probably just do it.

But again, stuff like this paints veterans as people who are simply on another level from normal people in this country. Being a veteran seems to be something completely unrelatable to the average citizen, so nothing I can ever imagine or do will put me in the mindset of a veteran. I simply can't relate. Then again, I don't know what it's like to be shot by the police, either.

So since this is a black guys vs veterans war I guess I'll just stay out of it. I'm just a white citizen so I'm lucky I can just watch football and be blissfully ignorant of the issues.
