Do you think the obligatory armbands will have "T" or elephants on them??
(Only teasing - for now).
Yeah, I remember stopping for Taps when driving off Fort Bragg. If in uniform, had to exit the vehicle, face the flag(or music) and salute. Kinda a nice pause before hitting the traffic.

OOps, first you had to stop the vehicle before exiting.

Yeah no kidding, yet all the liberals are worried about us Tweeter

The NFL event has cause a lot of talk about, ‘Rights’.

I would look at it this way.
 Everyone has a, ‘Right’, to agree or disagree with something’.
 And no one should be, ‘Forced’, to a, Political, opinion.

That said, if one is, ‘Hired’, for a Job, and one knows what the, ’rules’, of that job are.
They get, ‘Hired’, on the ability to, do’ those things.

     Take a UPS, (and like), Driver.  (Don’t know what all the rules are,  just guessing)
Have to speak English, Have a  D.L. Have to be able to walk. Have to be able to lift 50 pounds.
     How about a,  over the road semi Truck driver.
Have to have a CDL, (or be able to get one), and pass a physical/drug, test.
     How about a Pilot, can, NOT, have a malady, which would cause them to pass out.
(Etc, ya get the point)

Now, a  NFL  Player, Professing a, political, opinion, by standing/keeling/etc.
     ‘Would Be’, their choice.  
It is not in the, ‘rules’, that need to, ‘have to’, as terms of their, employment,
it is in the, ‘protocol’, of their employment.
 Which, to or not to,  be enforced, is the decision/choice, of the one person, who is the, ‘head', of that Business.
          And YES,  NFL, IS, a  Business.

If a decision was made, to enforce a, ‘protocol’, which they are bound to.
  (as to the terms of their employment)
     While, Getting  PAID, by a  Business, for a Job.
That does Not, interfere, with any, ‘Right’s’, they have as to a Political opinion.
      When they are NOT,  getting, PAID, for that  Job.

 When not being, Paid, by the  Business, and on their day off, they can march in ANY, rainbow/blm protest event and nothing is said.

So, I believe, the opinions, about whether a NFL  Player, stands/sits/kneels/etc.
Should go to the person who, ‘can’, enforce, the, ‘protocol’,  yet so far, has  chosen, not to.

As to, “Lawsuits” ?
So someone is in a Wheel Chair, has No D.L. (or can’t get one),  Gets turned down, for a ‘Job’, as a Package Delivery Driver/deliverer.  
    Then they can SUE ?????  
Well anybody can SUE, anybody, For Anything today, (A  Cake Baker comes to mind).
  Sure does seem like they were, FORCED, to believe, in someone else's, ‘Political’, view.

If memory serves me correctly, your son is a Marine serving overseas.  How do you think he would feel about that statement?

Best regards,

They signed up with rules
Players Should Stand
Early on, players didn't take the field before the hoopla.
I Get the
Workplace Rules thing.
A UPS employee can be fired for being seen drinking in uniform. Even IF they're finished for the day and it's just too far to go home and change.
I understand and agree with certain rules, but when did America, land of the free, become a place where we set up rules to force someone to make a political statement?
If taking a knee is a political statement
So is not taking a knee.
And IF those people Are forced to stand
And By Standing
They are saying whatever it is people seem outraged by them Not saying
How Genuine Is it?
The whole thing is just dumb. Why get butthurt over someone not standing?
And, wow, the quarterback who Stood got Creamed because the linemen were butthurt over him standing.

Rights and respect for me
Not for the

So lefty..

Yep,  Lifting 50 pounds, is not a  political statement.
   Yet, (again), the NFL,  IS  a  BUSINESS !

Perhaps, in the, ‘rules’, it should say:
  ’NO  Political Statements’.
  Just like they state,  “ no, advertisement, for  ……………”
