A direct quote from Colin Kaepernick, who started all this: "I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color."  Any player who mimics his protest is subscribing to his rationale.  My question to each member of the Broncos organization: do you have pride in this country, or do you consider it oppressive?  If the former, then stand up and respect the flag, and if you refused to do so previously, apologize for having endorsed Kaepernick's message, whether intentionally or unwittingly.  If the latter, then come right out and say it, and quit being hypocrites, claiming to support those who defend this country.  The fans deserve to know where you stand, so they can decide if they want to contribute to your egregious salaries.
