By the way, I do find it unusual that people who are REALLY MAD about a sports celeb kneeling during the Anthem (to protest the treatment of fellow Americans) are the same ones who ignore the POTUS colluding with a foreign enemy.

I'm not mad about him "taking a knee". I'm mad that he thought he was bigger that the team he played for (my beloved Niners)

It died when the Head of State equated peaceful protests with criticism of the military.

Oh what do you expect?
They're ranting about First Man, that movie about Niel Armstrong because it doesn't show them planting the US flag on the moon.
They're so dangerously nationalistic down there you just have to say "flag" or "patriot" and their brains turn to mush.

No, we still have it for the moment. It's been suffering the most on the liberal/left college campuses and in Hollywood.

But for the moment it's hanging on.

Yes, because the USA had so little to do with the moon landing. :roll:

Says who? Nike is free to put out the face of a man many American regard as vermin as their proud representative. Those Americans are free to not buy their products. Where is the lack of freedom?

You have a peaceful protest, people kneeling during the National anthem... and the President of the United States denounces it and pressures the NFL to squash it.

How is that free speech?

I've actually bounced a laser beam off the Tranquility Base mirror and got the reply ~2.5 seconds later! It's pretty cool! [B-o]

1. The NFL is a private company and the players do not enjoy freedom of speech while they're on the job. Neither do most people at their jobs, myself included.

2. The President is free to denounce the NFL.

3. The NFL's myriad financiers and government entities who are on the hook for billions in subsides for NFL stadiums have likely done far more to put an end to this kneeling shit than anyone else.

I agree with this. I may not agree with the stance the NFL takes, but if they take that stance, then the players are on the NFL's time.

However, I don't really give a shit. Football blows.
