The Urban Sombrero Wrote:By refusing to stand he is protesting substance ("liberty and justice for all") via the vehicle of the symbol. "Love it or leave it"?There is nothing honorable about hating cops, the American flag, or this great country in which we live. Again, just to be clear, the NFL players have no constitutional right to protest anything while on the job. The NFL, through its inaction, is allowing them to do so.
Are you serious? And, Hoot, the NFL's recognition of its employees right to protest ought to be lauded, not condemned. I do not see the NFL as siding with the protester's opinion, or even chosen vehicle, but simply honoring something basic and fundamental in America.
The NFL, by caving to its America-hating employees, is exercising its First Amendment right, but in this case - the players have no such right. The NFL could adopt a policy tomorrow to fine and or suspend players for offending its paying customers and the players would have no defense if they persisted in their bad behavior.
