Refusal to Stand for Flag a Manipulated Widening of National Divide Approved by Unprincipled NFL Leadership


Putting on a team uniform and appearing at an event paid for by others means you’re no longer representing yourself, you’re representing those employing you. [More]
The agenda-motivated lie here is that "First Amendment rights" have anything to do with this in-your-face display of contempt for everything "progressivism" is intent on tearing down.

Oh, hey, I’m down with this. Freedom is a two-edged sword. Just like presidential signing statements, the “nuclear option,” executive “phone and a pen” orders, and anti-KKK public mask laws, every new weaponized misbehavior the social Marxists legitimize will eventually be turned against them.

“The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem.

During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
