I'm left extremely puzzled by this interview I just watched with @TylerRickyTynes @ChrisWarcraft & .@JackBrewerBSI #NFL
Three things, from least important to most important. First, the players aren't at work when the anthem is playing. There's no football happening. They weren't required to stand until 2009, as part of a DoD recruiting drive for which they paid the NFL millions.

Second thing. The idea that just because a person is being paid to perform a service that they should not be allowed to speak out on injustices is morally repugnant. We are human beings first and foremost. Someone's job does not and should not define them.

Third thing. If you can't see how the most powerful government official in our country demanding a private business silence an individual's voice, and that business complying, is dangerous, then we don't have anything to discuss. That happens in dictatorships.
