So, if kneeling is OK during the national anthem, what about protesting abortion? This is from today’s Cowboys game in Dallas:
A protester stood on the platform at the base of the stands, shouting "Vote Republican" and "Stop Abortion" while the National Anthem played before the #Cowboys–#Jaguars game. pic.twitter.com/I8PKegAQZh

And did you spot the fan giving the pro-life the bird? See below:
This occurred during National Anthem at Cowboys game today.
Anyone think this is not infinitely more more disrespectful than quietly taking a knee?
Also, props to the owner of that finger?? pic.twitter.com/fjm3qGHnzb— Grant Souffle (@teddie_vedder) October 14, 2018
Other fans didn’t seem happy with the disruption either:

And security eventually escorted him off the roof, although a fan did snatch his sign:
So during the national anthem before #Jaguars at #Cowboys this old guy walked up/down holding a vote Republican sign & calling to end abortion. Peacefully removed. Fan snatched away the sign. Thank god he was not taking a knee pic.twitter.com/KqxrX7OhHi

As for the Cowboys themselves, they all stood for the anthem:
Cowboys are standing for the national anthem, while one fan gets political, and is escorted away. #4TheCowboys pic.twitter.com/lrWKvUb2cg
