Ok. so I work for the NAACP and I am not going to go stand to honor President Obama do to say lack of change in gun violence over his terms in office.. do you think I would still have my job ??  My point is a owner has the right to not allow that if it is going to hurt their brand their brand to a degree.. 

As far as hypocrisy, don;t you think protesting the "National Anthem" for athletes that are making millions of dollars from a sport in the country they live in is also hypocrisy
