Black football players have a right to free speech, white policewomen do not.

Full original title--White female cop takes stand on anti-American NFL ‘ingrates.’ It nets her punishment nobody saw coming
Last month, Michigan State Police director Colonel Kriste Kibbey Etue shared a Facebook post displaying the sentiments of literally the majority of America, but one that has gotten her into hot water with liberals in the peanut gallery.
The September 24 post, which has since been removed, decries NFL players ‘taking-a-knee’ during the national anthem as “millionaire ingrates who hate America.”
Etue was forced to “apologize” for the post three days later.
“It was a mistake to share this message on Facebook and I sincerely apologize to anyone who was offended,” Kriste Kibbey Etue said in a statement posted on the Michigan State Police Facebook page. “I will continue my focus on the unity at the Michigan State Police and in communities across Michigan.”
But as is always the case with Social Justice Warrior sharks who smell blood in the water, an apology is never enough.
On Friday, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder issued a statement announcing that Etue will lose five days of pay as punishment for her egregious sin.
“Colonel Etue posted something on social media that was inappropriate. … The colonel has served honorably as an enlisted trooper for 30 years, and I hope we can come together as Michiganders to move forward and find common ground, rather than rehash past mistakes,” said the (FAKE)Republican governor.
Etue will still be expected to work during those five days, according to Fox59.
Even as the Michigan State Police end non-serious-crime high-speed pursuits in Detroit, (FAKE REPUBLICAN) Snyder announced that he and his administration are also developing “cultural awareness and sensitivity training guidelines” for all government departments as well as policies for state employees on the private use of social media.
“We are the best Michigan when we are a diverse Michigan, and I will continue taking actions to ensure all state departments are working to effectively serve all residents in an impartial and inclusive manner,” said Snyder.
Black football players have a right to free speech, white policewomen do not.
The aplogizers are like the walking dead. Impotent.
Her real mistake was probably to have FB “friends” who are co-workers or supervisors. Dumb rookie mistake. Never, ever, be friends with coworkers on Facebook.
So she has to work 5 days for free? This is absolutely moronic.
And she expressed her feelings on her own time and her own privately owned medium.
Exactly and thats all that I would ask the NFL players to do. But they won't.
the left wins the double standard game again.
She should retire and run against him in the next election.
Unfortunately that is how the left is getting away with punishing free speech in a country with a first amendment. I expect she was told to apologize or she would lose her job.
How in the world do these people, who are a very small minority in the country, keep getting their way instead of being beaten senseless? How?
Seems like Kriste Etue has stated the truth.
*** She should retire and run against him in the next election. ***
Yes, she ought to.
Hey Gov. Snyder, do you wear your pink pussy hat to work or just at home?
I’m on her side. Say no to the NFL.
My fake news BS meter is going off on this one. I could be wrong but I would need to see a more reliable source. Too many people gaming things to pull at people’s emotional strings these days.
Having to work for no pay is slavery.
Simple.
They own the MSM.
Snyder needs to be removed via the GOP primary. How are his actions different from his Democrat predecessor?
Duplicitous horse shit for sure...
“...forced to “apologize” ...”
There’s comes a point in time where you make the conscious choice to tell those who would “force” you to do anything to Go F*** themselves.
It’s a choice. You either comply, or you do not. There are consequences, always, but it is still a choice.
And when you comply, they win. It’s an easy choice for me. Will. Not. Comply.
We didn’t get where we are by backing down.
Stand up now, or crawl later.
