Full title..................Liberal media outraged after 'racist' NFL adopts ‘un-American’ policy to combat national anthem protests...............

CNN’s Marc Lamont Hill urged all players to remain in the locker room. The CNN star added, “The worst part is that we’ve just accepted the idea that the national anthem has to be sung before each game as an article of faith.”

Bold type mine....yes Marc it is done as a article of faith in this country. Go to Mecca or any other country and try to change their call to prayer and see how that turns out for ya.

I don't understand why Americans don't want to celebrate America

Like the idiots who flee their $hitholes, come here, and then wave the flag of their $hithole country.

Only a communist would think the National Anthem is anti-American and racist. How low can those IQs go?

So the freaks are now telling us it’s un-American to stand for our Flag.

Don’t give them any ideas. Next, they’ll be halting the game and putting their butts in the air during call for prayer at the two minute warning.

The NFL probably just wants to get back to playing games before a packed stadium. And making money.

The players and the media? They don’t care. They would continue to play the “victim” card as long as they could.

As for me - too late. I don’t give a care what the National Felons League does from here on out.

Private parties forbidding displays of disrespect during the national anthem is UNAMERICAN????

The Left, where the patients are running the asylum.

I guess they think it’s also un-American to live in America and be an American. I wish they’d just leave and STFU if it’s so bad here.

I can see the signs near the players bench with an outline of course kneeling with a circle-slash through it. Aka “no kneeling zone”. What’s the fine if the kneel anyway? Or they could stay in the locker room.

This is all on the NFL. They opened the pandora’s box when they let Kaepernick go on with his shenanigans in the first placed instead of fining and then suspending him.

Why is there no outrage about the NBA mandating all of its players stand for the anthem? There are just as many social justice warriors in basketball than football, if not more.

The NBA was smart enough to get ahead of this insanity and quash it before it could get started. The NFL wanted to pander to these whiners until the league realized that the consequences were too steep.

It irks me to no end that so many people are talking about this as a first amendment issue (I made my husband turn off “The Five” this morning when Marie Harf went down that path and no one set her straight). It’s an employee/employer issue. Employers have a right to set rules about how employees behave while on the job (and even to a degree while off the job).
