"But" doesn't follow logically from "not gonna lie" in the context of what comes after. "But" signifies that you're about to say something that contrasts with what you just said, while your assessment about KD's mom is consistent with your previous disclaimer about how you're not going to lie. Goodnight

My mom is really mad about the football players kneeling, on account of how disrespectful it is to veterans; she never watches football but has announced a boycott of the NFL, a declaration she shared on Facebook while my dad -- who is an actual veteran -- was in the other room watching the Bears.
It's no wonder we are where we are.
Amen
Most of the Veteran's I've heard on the radio or seen on TV give the "fought for their freedom to kneel" line.

Ranchers want to remove 'intimidation and fear'
The leader of an armed militia that has hunkered down at a remote Oregon wildlife refuge to protest federal land policy said the actions of his group represented an attempt to "remove" governmental "intimidation and fear."

Helpers or law breakers? Oregon standoff trial begins
PORTLAND, Ore. – The leaders of an armed standoff at a rural wildlife refuge say they came to Oregon's high desert country to help locals deal with an overreaching federal government that has abused people's land rights for decades.

'It's Disgusting': NFL Fans React to National Anthem Protests
One woman said it's a "disgrace" and "unethical" for players not to show respect to the country and those who risk their lives to protect it.
She said if players on her favorite team continued to demonstrate during the anthem, she would stop rooting for them.
"It's disgusting," she said.
A man said he agrees with Trump "150%" that NFL owners should fire players who protest during the anthem. He pointed out that if he decided to protest at his job he would "probably get canned."

Don't these football players understand that we expect them to damage their bodies for our entertainment? It's way less entertaining when we have to imagine them having thoughts and feelings and shit.

Trump then transitioned to the topic of player safety and rule changes in the league, only a day after researchers at Boston University found that Aaron Hernandez had one of the most severe forms of CTE.
“When the NFL ratings are down massively, massively. The NFL ratings are down massively. Now the number one reason happens to be they like watching what’s happening ... with yours truly. They like what’s happening. Because you know today if you hit too hard: fifteen yards. Throw him out of the game. They had that last week. I watched for a couple of minutes. Tow guys, just really beautiful tackle. Boom, 15 yards. The referee gets on television, his wife is sitting at home, she’s so proud of him. They’re ruining the game! They’re ruining the game. That’s what they want to do. They want to hit. They want to hit. It is hurting the game.”
