This could be an example of why some choose to kneel during the anthem.

Maybe this is why some protest the anthem.
And notice how the publication describes the subject as a "man" and not a "student" without knowing the age but knowing that this took place on college campus.

Not sure of the significance of the man/student thing- former student I believe they said. But either way, it sure looks like the security guard obviously went way over the line with use of force- one of those guys that just can't wait to bully someone. The former student obviously has the clearer head- even after getting it slammed on the wall. Wouldn't be surprised if the wannabe cop gets canned for that action. He'll probably go home and kick the dog.JC29856 said:Maybe this is why some protest the anthem.

he is well within his right to use time that isn't during plays to use it as he pleases. i don't bitch about players kneeling and thanking god for the touchdown they just made, no matter how ridiculous it seems to me. the whole point of having a platform for causes is to use them if you see fit. just like ed at shows. it takes up nearly zero percent of the rest of the nfl week, so i'd day most fans don't give two shits.Godfather. said:
but he used his team, it's media time and position to protest and if he doesn't realize where his money comes from he's not a very smart man. he's costing the NFL money, remember what NFL stands for ? "Not For Long" if you don't fly straight, people see enough of that crap on the news and don't watch football to see some yahoo do it during their favorite sport.HughFreakingDillon said:

he wasn't protesting his team or his sport. this has zero to do with him "realizing where his money comes from".

It's akin to fans not liking EV talking politics between songs.

Well, it is a thread about racism and protest, so the term may come up more often than in the "What are you drinking right now?" thread.Post edited by oftenreading onmy small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0
