[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t realize Eminem took a knee, I thought it was his ending dance move. [/quote] Black person takes a knee and it ends his career. White person takes a knee and it's just a dance move. [/quote] If I could show you a black person who took a knee and kept his or her career, would it blow your mind? I don't like what happened to Kaepernick, but you're making a specious argument. [/quote] I do like what happened to Kaepernick because he chose to do it on someone else's time. And he was repeatedly warned.. Much like ones job that's not the time or place. He had many other avenues to show his activism. You stand for the Anthem and the flag period. [/quote] YOU stand for it. Others do not. It’s not required or mandatory. I sit happily during it at sporting events. [/quote] The players are banned from taking the knee, and must stand. As should be. No one cares if YOU sit, lol[/quote] You’re the exact kind of person who would care bc you have nothing else. Oh and players are not banned. [/quote] Actually they are banned from kneeling on the field during the Anthem. From their current handbook: "This season, all league and team personnel shall stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem. Personnel who choose not to stand for the Anthem may stay in the locker room until after the Anthem has been performed."[/quote] Yes, technically there is a policy in place but Roger Goodell has already stated that no NFL player has been disciplined for violating that policy and that no player will be disciplined and he will support them. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/13/sports/football/nfl-eminem-kneel-super-bowl-halftime.html [i]A league spokesman, Brian McCarthy, said on Sunday that the N.F.L. was aware that Eminem was going to kneel because officials “watched it during rehearsals this week.” McCarthy said that players, coaches and personnel were free to have taken a knee before Sunday’s game and that no one has been disciplined for taking a knee.[/i][/quote]
