NFL player posts on Instagram that horrendous picture of cop's throat getting slashed

[Desperado]

Go ask John Rocker about Major League Sports and Free Speech!

Just another stupid racist thug. They come in all professions.

I have trouble understanding why any institution as "patriotic" as the NFL would even consider punishing an employee for exercise free speech.

I will venture a guess that someone as stupid as you would have trouble tying his shoes laces in the morning.

Who gives a flying fart what they try to think about ANYTHING?

Because they'll influence the dummies watching them.

He admitted to making a mistake.
Get over it.
He's already playing his home games in Cleveland

Most criminals admit ******* up when caught.

I don't see the crime in saying something stupid?

Threatening violence and intimidation is a crime in many states.

The dummies are a mental vacuum and Nature will fill it with something, whether it is facts, religion, ideology or just plain old horse shit, and horse shit has the inside lane.

Intimidation, maybe?
Intimidation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Threat, Criminal threatening (or threatening behavior) is the crime of intentionally or knowingly putting another person in fear of bodily injury. 'Threat of harm generally involves a perception of injury...physical or mental damage...act or instance of injury, or a material and detriment or loss to a person.'[2] 'A terroristic threat is a crime generally involving a threat to commit violence communicated with the intent to terrorize other.'"[3]

"'Intimidation' is the name of a criminal offense in several U.S. states."
Crowell's guilty of bad judgement but not much else in this case, imho.
