Contradictions

Kneeling is a sign of reverence and respect. I see photographs of young men kneeling in attitudes of prayer in the presence the flag of our nation. Others wave Nazi banners and pay homage to symbols of the Confederacy.

How is it that President Donald Trump defames those who peacefully kneel in reverence to the flag of United States of America, and defends the heritage of those who shot that flag to ribbons?
