Current Events Quiz #1.4
Short Answers:
1. Sen. Susan Collins, John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and Bill Cassidy.
2. In 1969.
3. Devices for thieves to use to steal your credit or debit card number.
4. It'll help hire and keep the best employees and make shopping a better experience for customers.
5. British army officer Robert Baden-Powell.
Long Response:
1. I didn't know much about this topic before I read the story. I don't really have an interest in events like this, or "drama," because I believe it's not worth arguing over. I think players should be able to peacefully protest whatever they want. President Trump feeding the fire over Twitter certainly isn't accomplishing anything, in my opinion.
2. I don't think NFL players should be required to stand for the anthem. I don't believe that it's really a big deal wether they kneel or stand. I think everyone involved is overreacting.
3. Though I don't really care wether NFL players stand or kneel during the national anthem, I don't really think it's acceptable for players to stay in the locker room. I would be an act of immaturity that isn't necessary and what I believe to be, petty.
4. I have a strong opinion that President Trump should not have gone after the subject on Twitter. He is the President of the United States and should act like it. Social media is not the place for arguments like this. It's public where the whole Internet can see.
5. I don't know if race plays any role in this topic. I can't go into President Trump's head. I can't through his mind to see if he's trying to discriminate against African-American's. But even if he isn't necessarily "trying" to offend black people, what he's doing isn't right, in my opinion.
6. I know that Colin Kaepernick was invited to the White House, but when he kneeled during the national anthem and encouraged others, his invitation was revoked by President Trump. Kaepernick didn't seem upset. After all, his intention by kneeling was to protest against Trump.
