Doesn’t he have the right to own a gun?

Probably not anymore.

Maxwell was the only player in Major League Baseball this year to take a knee during the national anthem to protest the decrease in racial injustice which put him in the position where he could “protest racial injustice."

Yeah, he’s been condemned here on FR. Something about this seems fishy to me.

Absolutely. But if he points it at someone, and that someone feels threatened, that's a different matter.

Now, hopefully, this traitor will be starting catcher in prison.

Some big bubba is going to 'pitch' one to him for sure.

I initially read that to say “to promote racial injustice”.

You read between the lines very well.

Dodgers starting catcher Yasmani Grandal hit .247 this year, .228 last year. Made $5.5 million this season. Underpaid.

Astros starting catcher Brian McCann hit .241 this year, .242 last year. Made around $17 million this season.

Catchers don’t need to hit .357!

"Maxwell told TMZ Sports he has become friends with Kaepernick.

"His friendship definitely helps," Maxwell said. "His guidance comes through that. And just being able to use him as a sounding board some days does me some good."

Kaepernick social media posts laud Black Lives Matter, Black Panthers,...

August 30, 2016
FoxNews.com

'History!' Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15 [2015], when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.

Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends.

But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader [communist] Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur [aka, communist-revolutionary JoAnne Chesimard]

During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white “X” and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.”

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Doesn’t he have the right to own a gun?

Certainly he does and this has nothing to do with it. In Arizona, where this took place, it is not at all uncommon to assume that someone answering his door has a weapon on them or nearby. The Arizona state flower is the Glock 17 after all.

What is uncommon and also unlawful is to unlawfully point a weapon at someone coming to your door. That is the threat of deadly force. I answered the door yesterday afternoon. I had a revolver in hand, but it was not visible or threatening to the pair of guys that came to my door.
