Socrates and how he relates to todays society

Today in Human Geo we talked about our test. We went over our answers like we do in every class for tests, but this time when we went over one of the essay questions we found ourselves debating about an issue in todays society. The essay question was Socrates famously stated "The unexamined life is not worth living." Describe what this statement means to you personally. We talked about Socrates and how if you don't have freedom then why live at all. This brought us to the subject of kneeling during the national anthem. I completely disagree with kneeling to protest police brutality. I think that if you want to protest then they're are many different more peaceful ways to do that. For example you could set up an March or start a movement. The NFL players are getting paid millions of dollars to play football and entertain us, not disrespect our veterans.
