So is the right outraged by this... or is all their crying about free speech just an obfuscation of ideological goals? http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000934036/article/nfl-owners-issue-statements-on-anthem-policy?campaign=fb-articleshare
Looks like another Trump win. Why would the right be outraged
It's time for the fans to start kneeling.
I agree, but the NFL also set a rule that they can eject fans for doing that.
NFL is private organization, this is not an infringement of first amendment rights. I’m all for the kneeling but this is legal. And if you’re calling out the right for hypocrisy, they’re frequently hypocrites. Nothing new there.
Yeah, nothing new there - just pointing out their BS.
And it’s important to call it out. No doubt!
OP is an idiot. Flag as irrelevant/snowflake.
You’re against free speech and ideological diversity then?
Ohh. So meta. 🙄
Never cared about this issue. I know very few people who did, right or left. The NFL also has the right to set that rule.
Share your tc
I also think you are way off base thinking this is a right wing issue.... And that's why Democrats continue to lose elections. There are plenty of moderates and veterans who were quite unhappy about the disrespect to country and flag.. and the NFL ratings shows that
Shh stop stating facts, leftists hate it when you use logic
It’s like the dude in Newsroom said: you know why people hate liberals? Because they lose. It’s interesting that I hold left wing beliefs but find most of the left to be a bunch of small-minded candy-ass morons.
The kneeling was happening years before Trump. It only became an issue because ESPN would not shut up about it and created a ton of drama. Very disappointed by the media.

What are you talking about? NFL players are overly paid employees, if their owners demand that they follow a certain protocol while in uniform, then they should be following. It’s like if a McDonald’s employee refused to say “can I take your order”, sure it’s their “right” to do that, just as it would be my right as an owner to fire them for not doing their job
The right got upset about google-document guy. The right gets upset about other private institutions enforcing non-discrimination regarding trans-folks. The right cries about “ideological diversity”. But it’s BS, they’re selectively talking about these things as a cover for ideological aims.
