[QUOTE]Originally posted by theconductor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Camara90: [qb] People crack me up when they say these Athletes are exercising their 1st amendment right. First of all the 1st Amendment if for protection of the people from the government. Last time I check the work place as in the NFL was not the Government, and the Government would not be the one stopping them from doing so. As an employer the NFL had the right to take action regardless of someones beliefs. It is the same as when I used to work retail, they used to train all us managers and our employees that we had to wish people Happy Holidays and not Merry Christmas. Just because I celebrate Christmas and thats were my beliefs stem does not mean that I had the 1st ammendment right to do as I please at work. Get your fact right people. And yes I stand for our countries Anthem, I believe in the Pledge of Allegiance at our schools, and now that I dont work retail and am self employed I say Merry Motha Fucking Christmas!!! :patriot: [/qb][/QUOTE]This is of course 100% correct and should be common knowledge. The NFL owners have the right to do as they please with their employees (within reason and law of course). In this case, they are choosing to let them "speak." At this point the President should be hands off. After all, the government trying to regulate private business is an incredibly liberal ideal. What's truly offensive is the constant discussion by our leaders and media of the NFL when hundreds of thousands of Americans in Puerto Rico are in dire need of help. At least a week after the hurricane, some are finally starting to take notice. [/QB][/QUOTE]
