    Just exactly like there is no appropriate time to discuss gun control.

    I realize this alien to everything you believe. But conservatives unlike you liberals don't rubber stamp people simply because they are conservative.

    What's "forced" about asking players to do their protesting off the field?

We want children to be prepared with good work ethics when they grow up and enter the work force, so we have many things to teach them.

    Children should also be taught how to conduct themselves appropriately when they are in churches, when they National Anthem is being played, when they are at funerals, and when they are in situations where respect is appropriate. They should be taught about saying please and thank you, they should learn about how and when to apologize.
    Does work ethics include the gal who wouldn't accept gay people getting married and refused to issue them a marriage license despite it being her job?

    The fact that you took the time to comment about her knowing she probably wouldn't like it makes you a liar...unless you just talk out of your ass to hear the wind.

    That's right. And it looks like a lot of people agree with him. This stopped being about police brutality and race the minute he got involved, IMO. Now it's a point if honor for liberals who may actually loathe professional sports because Trump.

    Hilarious.
