Hint: it’s not) by people who get annoyed that people insist on not being treated disrespectfully due to their color, gender etc. Of course, those people generally get annoyed because someone they consider

Absurd. Kaepernick refusing to stand during the anthem and then answering truthfully when finally questioned after the third time he did is and then being called a traitor (which makes zero sense) by future prospective employers is in no way similar to a flag burning.
