Colin Kapernak lost his job after kneeling...remember him?
As a bonus point from Capt Obvious, kneeling is freedom of expression (symbolizing without words, a message)
Remember many months ago when oagre said the NFL was going to back down and give CK his job back when the rest of us knew that he is too toxic for the brand? lmao

Bill Maher, who's been friends with Roseanne since the 80's, claims that she has Multiple Personality Disorder.

Too toxic for the NFL brand?..... Well, we now have Black NFL protests which are going to continue to next season, the president running his mouth and Bud Plug complaining that having to watch Black athletes kneel for a half-minute every two weeks has ruined the NFL experience for him and fines which are going to royally piss the players' association. Sounds like Kaepernick is the least of the NFL's problems.

And Kaepernick's collusion lawsuit is steadily moving forward. At the end of it, the NFL is going to be kicking itself that it DIDN'T rehire CK.

Oagre claims to be a lawyer. Would you want this guy representing you in court?? :biggrin1:
Phil, which of us do you think has more respect on this board? Me or you?

Just interested in what you're going to say.

The fact you even care on an anonymous board, where you'll probably never meet 99.999% of the people IRL, speaks volumes
Lets be honest oagre, you were a junior law clerk who took notes during trial, and who's now trying to pass himself off as a real lawyer.
Either that or you were disbarred at some point.

BTW how did that problem with that MPA who accused you of harrassment work out for you??
Phil, you can search what happened with the MPA - Stella @ Pure. The thread is January 2017. It's all there, including the spa's apology to me. The girl mistook me for someone else and admitted she was wrong.

The last board member who kept bringing it up repeatedly - Galseigin - was banned when I complained about what he was doing.

Hey, TeeJay! Remember writing this little pearl of wisdom a couple of days ago in one of your posts???..... No? Because none of your so-called "response" related to it or what I said about it.

"As a bonus point, explain how kneeling during the national anthem is in any way/shape/form is related to "freedom of speech" (since it is obvious they have not said a single word during their ridiculous protest)"

Now re-read both your original post and my response thereto and try and understand what I was writing. (We both know you won't do this because it's too challenging for you.)
You really need to figure out english language

The first post (which you requoted) was FREEDOM OF SPEECH
The second post (which you answered) was PROTEST

They are 2 totally different terms / words /meanings

Now it is POSSIBLE to have an action be BOTH
But KNEELING is not SPEECH as stated above

This also is very funny since you insist on throwing out all the personal attacks / insults when it is clear you are wrong
Using different colours and fonts does not lend any more credence to your posts

Remember many months ago when oagre said the NFL was going to back down and give CK his job back when the rest of us knew that he is too toxic for the brand? lmao
CK was (at best) a mid level performer
His stats were awful but then again this thread derailment with people like O are obviously non-football watchers

Kneeling is "speech" under the law, TeeJay. There are lots of cases which say exactly that. That's what people keep trying to point out to you and what you don't understand.

So now I told you.

Ok so QUOTE one of these lol
(Although now since different states have different laws I suppose it would need to be California)

Either way as stated above your thread derailment is laughable

Joy Reid Keeps Her Job Despite Multiple ‘Roseanne Moments’

Joy Reid Keeps Her Job Despite Multiple ‘Roseanne Moments’

by Brian McNicoll on June 4, 2018

A lot of liberals were overjoyed when Roseanne Barr got fired from her show for making racist comments.

Joy Reid was not among them.

Reid has had her own set of Roseanne moments – problems with racist commentary, and the attention paid to Barr’s comments have only heightened pressure on her employer, MSNBC, to fire her.

“MSNBC’s Joy Reid problem isn’t going away,” read the headline on Columbia Journalism Review, a key magazine that covers the industry.

“MSNBC Refuses to Fire Joy Reid Despite Anti-Semitic Blog Posts and 2017 Endorsement of Nazi Website,” wrote the Zero Hedge blog.

“MSNBC host Joy Reid faces new questions about her old blog,” wrote the Washington Post.

The list of Reid’s transgressions continues to grow.

A Buzzfeed story last week said Reid encouraged readers of her now-defunct Reidblog to watch “Loose Change 9/11,” a movie produced in part by Alex Jones of Infowars, that argues the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by the U.S. government.

“The fundamental question is: Do you believe the official story of 9/11?” Reid wrote. “If you do, great. If you don’t, then everything that happened after that is called into serious question. Even if you’re agnostic, or you tend to believe that al Qaeda attacked the World Trade Center and Pentagon and that the government had no warning such a thing could happen, it’s worth taking a second look.”

The perpetrators were identified suspiciously quickly, Reid wrote, and questioned, as do many “truther” articles, why the WTC-7 building collapsed even though it was not hit by an airplane.

“For that matter, why did any of the WTV [sic] buildings fall?” Reid wrote. “Somehow I think it will be a generation before we get the full story on what happened on 9/11.”

Also last week, the Federalist revealed blog posts from July 2006 in which Reid attacked CNN’s Wolf Blitzer for being “too nice to Jews” and an “AIPAC flak,” referring to a prominent Washington policy group that supports Jewish issues.

The December before that, she had suggested former Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was on the mark when he suggested the “Zionist regime” of Israel should just relocate to Europe.

“You believe the Jews were oppressed, why should the Palestinian Muslims have to pay the price?” she wrote. “You oppressed them, so give a part of Europe to the Zionist regime so they can establish any government they want. We would support it. So, Germany and Austria, come and give one, two or any number of your provinces to the Zionist regime so they can create a country there … and the problem will be solved at its root.

“I hate to admit that Mr. Amadinejad [sic] has a point. God is not a real estate broker. He can’t just give you land 1,000 years ago that you can come back and claim today.”

Earlier, journalists had revealed homophobic comments Reid made on her blog. In one piece, she says she could not watch the movie Brokeback Mountain because “most straight people start to cringe at the sight of two men kissing.”

Reid has suggested the blog posts revealed were not written by her but rather inserted into her blog by hackers. MSNBC is said to be standing by her while the FBI investigates the claim.

Reid says she “genuinely” does not believe she “wrote those hateful things, because they are completely alien to me. But I can definitely understand, based on things I have tweeted and have written in the past, why some people don’t believe me.”

But journalists on the right are skeptical anything will happen to her.

Daniel Greenfield wrote at Frontpage magazine’s website: “But while Roseanne’s comments were enough to get her fired and her show canceled, no amount of vile posts from Joy Reid will get MSNBC to dump her. Because there’s a double standard there.”

There's no way oagre is a lawyer.
Maybe he just sits at home reading law books and tries to pass himself off as a lawyer on the internet???
Phil takes trolling to new heights. This is the Lounge Phil, people have been barred for this level of personal attacks.

IAs to Clinton she hasn't disappeared. She wrote her book and continues on a speaking tour to discuss the 2016 election. All over the world.

But she lost the last big job she promised alot of international donors she would have so I guess she has to hustle money up somehow.
And was that have to do with trump saying nothing negative about Roseanne but calling for Bee's firing?
