Vice President Mike Pence says he left Sunday's 49ers-Colts game at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis over protesting that took place during the national anthem.

Pence tweeted a statement in which he said he would not dignify any event that disrespects soldiers, the flag or the anthem.

Mike Pence leaves San Francisco 49ers-Indianapolis Colts game over protesting during national anthem

Way to go Mike! These Colts players are paid to play football. Not make political statements every week.
 
Mike had some of his own kneeling to do--His daddy Trump awaits.
 
I imagine Pence couldn't stay to watch a full game anyway. He's gotta be busy attaching electrodes to gay people to "convert" them.

Do you realize how stupid you sound when you attempt to make jokes that were built on a lie in the first place? I mean...literally...you make yourself LOOK just like the mindless muppets they EXPECT you to be. Why would you do that to yourself?

I really believe Pence was distraught over watching the 49'ers and Colts players disrespecting our flag. He's good friends with Peyton Manning who had his statue unveiled during halftime. I'm pretty sure he wanted to stay to watch that.
 
Didn't he cry because the cast of Hamilton got political with him?

All I know is that if I was in the presence of someone like the President or Vice President, I certainly wouldn't embarrass myself or make some sort of political statement.

That's a real honor, a once-in-a-lifetime type honor.

I bet these overgrown apes wouldn't have done that if Obama were president. What a shame. A certain level of decorum and respect is lacking today in our society.

So despite all the endless publicity and controversy surrounding players kneeling during the anthem, it came as a surprise to Pense, and sensitive soul that he is, he left in shock and outrage. Sure.

This is a sports thread. This thread has nothing to do with homosexuals.

Conversion therapy has everything to do with homosexuals. Was I wrong about what the electrodes were referring to?

He could have just shown up at halftime, or at least after the game started so as to not get triggered.

Well, Calamity, When Obama visited New Jersey, Chris Christie hugged Obama and showed him a tremendous amount of respect. Democrats, for example, wear prostitute shoes and offensive T-shirts like the major of San Juan.

Meanwhile, as Pence and Trump fiddle, Puerto Rico is on its third week with no power and suffering from severe food and water shortages.

What are prostitute shoes?

Didn't these protests start last year, when Obama was president?

No. Athletes have been kneeling and staying in the locker room for decades.
