So is it the fact that he doesn't want to stand up, or is it because he sympathizes with BLM?

Personally, I think he is being disrespectful because the flag is not a representation of police brutality. His actions are completely misguided. So I agree with the fact he is being an idiot and it sounds like he needs a time-out.

However, I don't think his actions should be used to de-legitimize BLM.
