Right or Wrong on the issue, how many people in the US do you think agree with Trump, players ought to be FIRED for exercising their free speech rights by kneeling?

****************************************************

Here is a news flash, and a little history lesson.
Free speech means you are free to speak without government retribution.
It does not mean you can say and do anything you want at your job and you are free from consequences. People get fired all the time for opening their big mouths.

Exactly my point. Do you think it's right to get fired for a FB post or saying or doing something an employer may disagree with politically? How about not baking a wedding cake for a couples sexual orientation you disagree with?

Go to your job tomorrow and start telling all the customers how bad the company product is, and how the boss sucks.

When you are fired, tell me about your first amendment rights.
