what-the-nfls-new-rules-for-anthem-protests-really-mean -for-the-first-amendment-according-to-experts/ Do NFL players have First Amendment rights on the football field? However, Trump is dead wrong on "You have to" here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virginia_State_Board_of_Education_v._Barnette It doesn't take a huge leap of logic to figure out that the same concept covers the anthem as well, at least in public places. It could be argued that taxpayer-subsided bigass stadiums are somehow "public" places. Maybe a clever lawyer should get on that. At the very least, a ruling in that direction could quickly end to the expectation that the public has to pay for the damned things. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why are people so butthurt about players not standing The view / excuse from the other side is that, regardless of your politics, you need to have utmost respect for the symbolism of this country: disrespect the flag in any conceivable way and you are pissing on all the brave men and women who died in service of the American ideal. They see this as yet another eroding of their version of classic American morals and values. Even factoring out how polarizing things are now politically, it is very unlikely that you can talk these people down from this, because it's such a deep offense to their sensibilities. Thinking about this whole thing, I honestly don't know if I can compliment Trump for being a master manipulator in his ability to dredge up and reignite near-dead controversies in continuing attempts to keep the focus off his giant shady ass, or if the country's already such a boiling pot that he doesn't even have to try. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ...

Not surprising, Trump supporters would openly deport anyone of the opposite party or basically anyone who doesn't kiss Trumps ass.
Yet somehow calling them wannabe fascists is being "unfair" --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Isnt this what liberals want? Complete silence from dissenting opinions? Some of the crazier liberals sure but most of us no. The silencing is more a right wing thing.

Players have already made it known that they weren't even thinking about protesting until this rule came along, and now they're back on the idea. This will only lead to more.
