They are free to protest and say whatever they want but the employer doesn't have to let them play. They do NOT have a right to that multi-million dollar job. People seem to have forgotten these days that civil disobedience is supposed to have penalties. It seems like only pro-American, non-socialists have to endure penalties for speaking their minds.

I feel the same way, double standards abound.

This is the United States of America and the guy and like minded people are free to protest and say what they think. Just as you and I are. I have no problem at all with these guys and gals making whatever statement they feel a need to express in their own morality.

There are two issues here though.

1) The right to publicly express conservative ideas is not as equally protected as the right to spout leftard nonsense. Just ask Brendan Eich (one of thousands of examples).
2) His right to freedom of speech doesn't mean he gets to squelch opposition to the content of his speech (which is what leftists are doing when they complain that they've had to suffer some sort of consequence for expressing their ideas and thus claim their freedom of speech is being infringed upon).

Interesting. They must have had different front cover pics as mine had Von Miller.

Yeah, my mistake. I seen a scowling angry-looking multimillionaire football star, he's been in the news every day, thought it was him.

Maybe not a mistake. I missed it, but I heard this morning that they had his mug in a Century Link ad in the Sunday Post. Appears he signed a deal with them.

Century Link told him to pound sand today. I suspect his "undisclosed" donation he was planning to give to a charity is getting smaller and smaller with every endorsement he loses.

I'm wondering what the end game is - at what point will they start standing up again?

Probably after his meeting with the Denver Chief of police. He'll shell out $1 maybe $2 million for what ever social program he's suggested to donate to. With a "small" portion going to LE's for body cams. That's my guess.

I support the right these folks have to do what they're doing and I support the folks that make business decisions based on those actions.
