Politics Tarnish Movies, TV, Pro Football and Now Me--

[Bender2]

Back in the 1930s and 1940s, film producer Samuel Goldwyn was renown for his quotes such as "If you want to send a message, call Western Union."

And that was pretty much how it was in films, the coming television industry and in sports. There was politics and there was entertainment. Sadly, it is that no more--

I am a Baby Boomer, a term seldom heard these days as we are all getting into our 70 years of age, a demographic advertisers ignore as if we are already dead and gone.

The Left started putting more and more of their political views into the news media, then into films. Then television. They got "Hate Speech" to suppress any speech they did like. That has has evolved into today's demanding that any view not in step with the Left not even be allowed. Now, my opinion is being suppressed not by the Left, but by those on Free Republic that say I an un-American and not Conservative because I will not go along with their view that my NFL LIVE THREAD is at fault and to be blamed, not Colin Kaepernick and his supporters. What was two different opinions has turned into a pack of worthless thugs the Left Wing would be proud of--

My politics has always been Conservative Republican yet nowadays I am curse by people and told my opinion is not worth of even being allowed on Free Republic.

What is that opinion that is so damned?

Well, I condemned Colin Kaepernick when he dissed the National Anthem last year. I condemned other NFL players who did the same. I agreed they had the right to their opinion but not to dis saluting Old Glory and the vets who fought for Free Speech.

I agree with President Trump that NFL owner have the right to fire players who disrespect the flag and National Anthem. It is a private business that can suspend players for bad actions and to my way of thinking, their kneeling is one very bad action.

Yet I continued positing my NFL Thread as I felt I had the right to-- That is why I am today cast here on FR as the greatest traitor to America since Benedict Arnold.

So, what to do?

I do not ask that anyone support those NFL players who kneel when the "Star Spangles Banner' is sung. I do not ask anyone watch the NFL games. I do not ask anyone to do anything they do not want to--

However, the following I will still post until I am told I cannot do so.

Let me know when y’all secede. I’ll move back!

Instead of the usual ‘Go Pack Go’ chant, Packers fans chanted “USA, USA, USA!”

Re: Instead of the usual ‘Go Pack Go’ chant, Packers fans chanted “USA, USA, USA!”

Don't have the TV on... right now--

BUT what I want to know... is did Tony stand or kneel?

[Impy]

I should have watched “The Good Place”. ;d

At least I won’t have to miss “Chicago Fire”.

[big'ol_freeper]

You know, I was going to post ‘Cutler lives’ but I have a suspicion this game is going to end up close. Reverse lock and all.

Only one 49er? How ironic.
