If your employer chooses to allow you to exercise your rights on their time, Id be ok with you protesting anything as long as its done lawfully. This is actually one of the big problems those who disagree with the.protests have. They want to claim that protesting doesnt belong in the aorkplace. And it doesn't, as long as the qorkplace tells you to leave the protests out of work. But, thats not what has happened here, and honestly, the protests have had zero effect on the product/game itself.(10-17-2017, 09:03 PM)raptor6581 Wrote: What is insulting about properly utilizing a right? 2) This IS the best country in the world. A huge part of what makes it so great supposed to be the ability to speak your mind. So long as its done lawfully (as in the kneeling) its as respectful to what this country is as it can be. 3) Politicizing a sporting event started a LONG time ago. Just having the anthem played at the game is a political move..... 4)The protests have little to do with the original message at this point. Trump all but ensured that these protests would be blown out of proportion and taking 100% out of context the moment he opened his mouth. Though there were players taking a knee, it remained a small issue until trump spoke up. It remained just a small hand full of players u til trump threw it off the original message. Heck, even after trump said what he did, only around 200 or the 1000+ took a knee..... Others immediately started showing unity and support for others and their issues in other ways (locking arms, entire team staying in locker rooms, team kneeling BEFORE anthem but standing during....). And lastly, you didn't answer my question. What is insulting about properly utilizing your rights? Sent from my LG-TP260 using Tapatalk |
