What a joke. Not saying he was right, but he's not entitled to his opinion? Praise one for doing the same but oppress another.

everyone is entitled to their opinion and a company is entitled to enforce their own policies for their employees

I understand that, but their decisions is very hypocritical given the stance taken by many organizations and athletes

what other athletes or organization has said certain people should be locked up like animals?

No, the other athletes expressing their first amendment rights

he's not being suspended for expressing his first ammendment right. he's being suspended for violating team code of conduct

you're right, but it's the principle that double standards exist. Different (unpopular) opinion, different punishment.

@BravesReddit If you cheer Aroldis Chapman, but you demand Clevenger's head on a pike, your priorities are way off.

No one does either, and both were suspended.

I just couldn't help but to think of Isaiah Crowell posting a pic of a beheaded cop and not getting this much vitriol.

@Mariners why is he being suspended he has the right just like the other black players do to have an opinion!!

because as a player he represents the Mariners organization. doing nothing would be tacit approval

What he tweeted was spot on.

likening African Americans to animals is spot on?

come on he wasnt saying dat at all he said they acted like animals beating a man ffs

he said everyone involved with BLM "should be locked behind bars like animals"

first of all, many ppl in BLM are not causing any problems. why do they deserve that?
