    Matt, you're being obtuse. We have communists in America; we have wiccans; and yes, we have people who believe in the principles of nazism. They are all Americans; and are represented by their congresspeople and other *elected* officials--including the vice president.

    That doesn't mean they're correct, or that they should even exist; but as long as they're non-violent or otherwise not guilty of illegal actions/activities, they're free to be stupid.

    Would it be any better if the taxpayers paid for him to fly from Las Vegas to Indianapolis for the game and back to California for a fundraiser if he had stayed????

    How many tax dollars would have been saved had the VP remained at game?

    So are the NFL players. They too are represented as you say.But Pence saw fit to protes to against them - for dishonouring the flag, the military - but not Nazis, who are far more disgustingly disrespectful to our flags and military forefathers on both sides of The Pond.

    There's something seriously wrong with that.

    Pence needs to condemn the Nazis. Every morning before his eggs and toast.

    Then again before he goes to bed.

    I’m not going to indulge your nazi fantasies anymore. Time to talk about something else.

    Here's your pix - (look here for virtual view, and see NO windows anywhere where there are in this pix, btw. Indianapolis Colts Virtual Venue™ by IOMEDIA )

    [​IMG]


    I know that picture is claimed as a picture from the stadium on Sunday the 8th of October 2017, but I question that. Not that I think they didn't kneel, I just think the media is faking things a bit.

    Here, if I can post a pix -

    [​IMG]

    On the far left is where all those 49ers in the pix the media is using.

    [​IMG]

    The far right is a view of all those 49ers in this pix, see anything like the pix you posted?

    We were there and we were a RARE thing to see as 49er fans. (BTW I am a fan because my son is, HE is the real 49er fan! I am not really into sports.)

    And upon leaving, when the crowd left, we were amongst the crowd that left from the 49er side - not hardly a red shirt anywhere. Seems a bit questionable whether that pix was here at this game.

    And here is a pix of some 49ers actually praying before the game -

    LOL. Yep, if you squint you can see "University of Phoenix" and "Pat Tillman" signs above all those red-clothed fans in the purported photo:

    Yeah, compare the images and see the picture used before is NOT of the same game. Just saying.

    The kneeling picture appears to be the stadium in Phoenix. So that came from a divisional matchup against the Cardinals I would think. Interesting. Thanks.

    I typed into Google: "Colts vs. 49ers October 8, 2017 images" and that picture popped up with a tag, "taken 12 hours ago". I tried to verify if it was authentic but I don't know what the inside of Lucas Oil stadium looks like.

    I apologize for posting this pic, which is obviously not from the game last Sunday. Thanks for clearing that up.

    There were not any NAZIs protesting at the football game. Also the fans don't support neo-NAZIs with multi million dollar salaries. That could explain it.

    And I investigated and saw the same photo more than once online when this subject was started, it is not YOUR fault.
    The response from me was NOT to blast YOU, but to disprove the source of the supposed photo - the liberal media!

    We can't even trust them for a photo?!?!

    Trusting the word of God is the ONLY sure thing we can ever do without fear!

    No worries, I didn't take your post as a dig at me. It does show you have to double and triple check sources nowadays.
