re: #269 Sir John Barron

The militarization/nationalism at professional sporting events is kinda overboard anyway, especially since 911. A lot of times they roll out a flag that’s as big as the field, have some jets flyover, etc.

They are armies of warriors!

They have strategies, offense and defense.

It’s ripe for military overtones.

To me it’s just a game. Not a way of life or a religion.

But Kaepernick saying stuff about police and judges…we can’t have that. If guys beat on their wives and girlfriends or get to driving drunk and tearing up nightclubs in fights…that can be forgiven if the player is good. But open your mouth about politics…no can do!
