Although I don't agree with Professional players kneeling I feel they have the right, but I'm not sure the same holds true for those that play for the Red, White, and Blue.

I recently watched a story on the Syrian Men's team that makes all this look petty.

Why can it not be considered that Rapione is speaking AGAINST Patriots and Hickle is speaking FOR Religious Freedoms? 

No sillier than being a sport fan and saying the team needs to make changes.

Or being a parent and loving your children but telling them when you think they are making mistakes with their lives.

And, again, if someone is speaking for something that oppresses another group I find that worse than someone speaking for the group being oppressed.

Saying gays should be equal is not the same as saying you can't believe your religion.  Just that your religion doesn't supercede the rights of your fellow citizens.

Not saying it's an easy comparison.
