FULL TITLE: Actor Jesse Williams says the NFL's pregame national anthem is a 'scam' convincing Americans to join the military and 'fly overseas and kill people'
Actor Jesse Williams has claimed that the NFL's pregame national anthem ceremony is a government 'scam' designed to convince 'boys and girls to fly overseas and kill people'.
Williams made his comments while speaking to MSNBC about football players kneeling during the pregame Star Spangled Banner performance to protest race inequality in the United States.
Williams, best known for his role on Grey's Anatomy, said that NFL players started participating in the pregame national anthem in 2009 as a Defense Department military recruitment strategy.

Never heard of him either.
He probably appears in gay porn.
It’s like the dumb switch is hit in these libtards when the Republican is in office. Under the Kenyan Administration,everything was so cool because they had a cool president.
“Never heard of him.”
Same here. I guess he is pimping himself out for “the cause”, so he can attempt to become famous.
Never heard of the named actor. Probably never will again. Drama queen got his shot at fame and missed.
This is the same guy who made the headlines recently for cheating on his wife with several women. Now they are going through a divorce.
So not only is he a horrible human being, he’s bat sh!t crazy too.
If only we could understand what they are yammering about we could know what opinion to hold.
Who is Jesse whathisname?
Reinstate the draft. Draft all 18-year-olds for a two year period of service to their country. The only deferments would be for those individuals exhibiting incapacitating mental and/or physical disabilities. Nearly all 18-year-olds would be able to perform some sort of civil or military service.
Don't care what he thinks (about anything, for that matter)
Didn't need a photo.
Where do these liberals come up with such ridiculous ideas?
>> said that NFL players started participating in the pregame national anthem in 2009 as a Defense Department military recruitment strategy.
So athletes were never on the field for the National Anthem before games started anytime before 2009?
Who was president in 2009?
How many of these protests were there over the past 9 years?
