How convenient.

Let Ms. Coulter speak at Berkeley. Let the Klan rally in Charlottesville. Let Black Lives Matter protest in St. Louis. Let NFL players kneel in a stadium.

This is America. Toughen the skin, turn down the "I'm so offended," let folks say as they see. Let debate rage as the different points of view are offered. Let voters go the polls. Let winners crow and the defeated bemoan. This is America. It's messy and loud and boisterous. And glorious.

You have every right to hate cops, our flag, and our nation. You don't have the right to protest on company time unless the company decides to allow you to do so. The NFL has that right and patriotic fans have the right to switch channels and burn their NFL jerseys in protest. These are pretty simple facts of life and constitutional law. I get it. Why don't you?

BTW, this entire discussion about low-life, American-hating NFL players is off topic. This is my last post on the subject in this thread.
