Quote:Welcome to America in 2016: where freedom of speech is secondary to not hurting anyone's feelings.

 

I'm sure there are contracts in place that make the chief's threat a hollow one. His whine-and-cheese fest is entirely symbolic. The canned apology is done, and it sounds like Crowell is going to have hell to pay once he shows up at camp.

 

To be perfectly blunt, if Dallas hadn't happened a few hours after Crowell's post, no one would have cared outside of Cleveland.

He was allowed to say it, so no infringement there... There are however consequences to your words and actions. If I say, "I am going to kill x" Or post up a picture of killing someone, or a drawing.. There is serious reason for concern... Especially with terrorist groups like BLM being supported by our own damn president, inciting violence to take place. I have no issue with the outrage.. Killing people for enforcing the law in the best(not perfect) system in the world is not OK. And as long as these guys are protecting it according to the constitution I will defend them.. Even if I disagree with 99 % of what government does.
