Trump Wrong as Usual: Unwarranted Attack on NFL Players

[Ray From Cleveland]

He exhibits the ongoing hypocrisy of the right wing. They whine like banshees, or Ann Coulter, if students at Berkeley show up to protest them and cry it is denying free speech, but the second a con sees someone exercising THEIR free speech they move to have them silenced.

The difference is they stopped Ann Coulter as they have other conservative speakers.

NFL players can have an opinion but president Trump the POTUS can't? You libwits have a real problem with the 1st amendment.

Considering, you are also have a real problem with the 1st Amendment. It also appears Trump doesn't understand the 1st Amendment, and this guy is president. SAD!

The first amendment is about free speech without government interference. I can't go to work Monday and call my boss an asshole and say it was my free speech rights to do so. He would have every right to fire me.

The ant-American football players used their free speech, and Trump used his, but the only free speech you protest is that of Donald Trump.

Actually, I did state I didn't agree with the NFL player's kneeling gig, in another thread.
Right as usual Mr. Trump - NFL protesters should be canned

Trump has just as much right to voice his opinion about players who take a knee during the national anthem as those players do to take a knee.

What is this guy talking about?

what are the recent events where conservatives rioted to prevent liberals from speaking?

All citizens have freedom of speech. An employee doesn't have the same rights on the clock that someone off the clock has. If you want to say whatever you want on the clock then you need to start your own business.

A performer has freedom of speech, but they are in a different category especially if they are well known. The Rock for instance has a public image and can say whatever he wants, but if what he says goes against his image and people start not going to his movies is HBO or Universal not free to not do business with him anymore?

Was WWE not free to stop using Hulk Hogan after his issues?

The NFL is free to do what it likes then as well. Case closed.

Then what's the discussion about? The NFL can do as it likes and we can stay home or change the channel.

That's right, dummy. And the NFL says that Trump ought to stuff his opinion up his ass. They have no problem with players taking a knee during the anthem. They understand that it is patriotism in action.

Ya dumb shit.

Patriotism is disrespecting our anthem and flag..............gotcha.

If it's warranted. Exactly. Fool.

And who is it that justifies it's warrant--you fool?

Just like BLM, what you have here are a bunch of dumb jocks that don't know or understand our laws in this country. They apparently object to authority as well. However those of us that respect the law, want to continue to live in a civilized country, reject this pathetic display by the football players, will criticize them and even quit being fans.

I don't recall this outrage when the NFL chose to not play Tim Tebow because of his religion.

Liberal hypocrisy.

‘NFL commissioner Roger Goodell fired back at President Trump on Saturday for encouraging league owners to remove players who take a knee during the national anthem, saying Trump’s “divisive comments” show “an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL.”’

NFL's Goodell: Trump's 'divisive comments' show a 'lack of respect'

Trump also exhibits a lack of respect for free expression and his contempt for dissent.

Troll America hater forgets all about the "lack of respect" NFL players are showing American service men and women.

These players don't seem to realize they get paid millions of dollars because of the people who go to games and buy the merchandise.

If they lose their audience, they lose their money.

They should be treading lightly.

Ya dumb shit.

That's why the NFL is swirling down the toilet bowl. It's already hitting the owners in their pocketbook big time. After a year of dismal attendance, they will be singing a different tune.

Oh. You think Kaepernick is the reason? Man are you lacking information or what?

Yes, he's the reason - him and all his imitators.

YEp, and all these douche bags supported the university for doing it. They are the consummate hypocrites.

As much as the OP hates this nation....you'd think he'd do himself a great favor.......

And LEAVE

But no....he wants to "transform" this land, and once devastated. find another to do the same

This is the most assinine response anyone can make and the mouth breathers say it all of the time.

If you don't like any little thing about the USA, you shouldn't work towards making it better, you should just leave.

That statement is in direct opposition to everything you supposedly believe in - the Constitution, freedom of speech, justice for all.

If you hated the fact that Obama was President, why didn't you leave? I realize that the number of countries willing to accept right wing rednecks is short, but you could have found some other right wing utopia to move to.

Quit. The games will be better without you.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Is standing for the National Anthem proof of one's loyalty to this nation?

Is standing for the National Anthem proof of one's loyalty to this nation?

Yep, and kneeling is showing disloyalty to this nation.

Of course they will. Less fans means less money. Less money is always better for any organization, isn't it?

There is no other right-wing utopia to move to. That's why we are trying to protect this country from Communism/ Socialism. There are plenty of those places for any American to move to. But once they destroy this country, there is no other USA to go to. That's why we conservative are fighting so hard to preserve it.

Trump's divisive comments are free speech.

Of course, he's wrong.

He just let the market work things out.

Uh, no.....it isn't.

But then again, you really don't seem to be very tolerant of other POV.

You also believe that a person can prove his or her loyalty to this nation simply by standing for the national anthem? And that kneeling means that a person isn't a loyal American?

Are you a retard?
