Was it worth it Brandon?

His right to protest.

Their right to drop him.

Moral of the story: Protesters aren't the only ones who have rights.

Or generally, your freedoms do not mean freedom from repercussions. No different than duck dude talking about gays and TV company dumping him.

Right. Freedom of Speech clearly states "Congress shall pass no law..."

That does not mean employer's can't.

Being fired, dropped by a sponsor, etc never has been and never will be a "violation of Constitutional rights".

Nothing positive will come out of this movement. It is only bringing negative attention. If your goal is to get your country to hate you, excellent work.

I would guess most people that hate Colin Kaepernick and Brandon Marshall for not standing during the national anthem are probably the same people who don't give a shit about the point of their protest.

And if your ire is stoked by someone not standing for the national anthem, you probably have an awesome life. If that is what does it for you things must be looking pretty bright.

I don't give a shit about the point. Fuckers are making millions for playing 16 games in this beautiful country. Parachute them to Africa , take away their riches and see how they like life there. Are are the last people to show disrespect

LOL

Again it is only bringing negative attention to the issue. Nothing positive will come from this. I have no problem with the point of the protest just use a different stage to make your point.

Now stop acting like he is Rosa Parks because he is not.

Do you stand for the Klan's right to protest? Probably not but that's ok, I don't approve either, just like I don't approve of these assholes doing what they are doing but that's what is great about America. You can be an asshole so asshole away assholes.

Every week we are going to get a new thread... Should we have Shaggy merge it all into one "People Who Sit During the Anthem Tracker" thread?

At least Kaepernick won't only be remembered as a shitty QB... Now he'll also be remembered as the douchebag that started this pathetic protest movement.

It''s their right to protest, but it'sy right to say if you don't want to respect our national anthem or you want burn burn our flag, move the fuck out and do as you please.

If i made 100 mill regardless of talent or not, I would be kissing the flag every day and singing God Bless America. Where I came from in Europe millions of people got slaughtered in WW2 so glad my parents came here. What does he have to be unhappy and ungrateful about?

I don't hate them for it, I just think they're misguided morons.

Never said he was Rosa Parks. Not even close. Speak for yourself not for me.

I do stand for their 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHTS. I don't care for their message. That is all these people are doing exercising the constitutional rights. If that is unAmerican this country is in trouble.

First amendment protects you from the government, not your employer. How many people have been fired for saying gay people suck or transgenders are nasty or black people should be hung? Too many to count. Did you stand up for their rights of free speech?

If I am a billionaire that talks about this country not being great do I have to move out?
