I like how when we have...

NFL players silently kneeling during the anthem, we hear "Fire them!"

But when Rosanne, who plugged her ears, screeched, grabbed her crotch, and spat on the ground when performing the national anthem gets in trouble for a racist tweet, we hear "Let's not overreact now..."

That's because the football thing is retarded... They're kneeling in protest over "America" the only country in the world where they can make the ridiculous amount of sums in money for playing the one sport the rest of the world pretty much doesn't care about yet that's what they're protesting.. They're basically telling everyone not to give them money.. Then they complain when no one wants to hire them for a contract??? Like tf???

If they hate American football so bad they need the coach to start making them run soccer drills on the field and make a career change instead of all their hypocritical bullshit...

@SerenitiesScars I don't think they're doing it because they hate football.

@Xuan12 They're complaining About America.... America is the only place where they could make the ridiculous amount of money they make off of American football.. Complaining as such is retarded.. That's what everyone sees.. Spoiled brats.. So now they've lost major interest in football and instead baseball is becoming huge again.. They shot themselves in the foot.. Damage is already done.. And it's the industries own idiocy for doing so...

Complaining about a place that gets you your money then complaining that no one is taking up your contract to get you your money, is by all means the definition of being a complete imbecile.. This is why they're paid to run into each other at full speed with their helmets on.. And some of them are acting like they had their helmets off for a couple of games cuz that shit is just stupid..

@SerenitiesScars Baseball is becoming huge again? Omg...people must be seriously bored. But seriously, I think in specific it started as a complaint about racial inequality in the justice system. You're conflating any protest with a protest of the entire nation. By that logic, anyone protesting for any reason involving the state of affairs in America would be protesting the country itself. Like if you wanted to protest restrictions on firearm ownership in California...well that would be a protest against the nation. If we overgeneralize this, we're essentially saying that any protest unwarranted and unforgivable.

@Xuan12 No... It's the national anthem.. therefore you're protesting the nation itself... If you were doing a specific protest it would fit the protests placement... Protesting the national anthem means you're disrespecting the nation.. That's what they did... And it makes them look like idiots. And therefore no one likes them anymore... And you can't blame anyone for hearing whiny ass millionaires trying to make shit about themselves... People see it, get disgusted and that's the very nature of things.

@SerenitiesScars Okay, so if a person protests the President, are they protesting the nation itself? If someone protests bald eagles are they protesting the nation? If a person protests civil seizure or eminent domain, which is the LAW are they protesting the nation itself?
