Ford has taken a stance on the NFL national anthem protest, and I quote: "We respect individuals' rights to express their views, even if they are not ones we share," the company said on Monday. "That's part of what makes America great." The key part of that quote is "even if they are not ones we share". Might be worth keeping that one in your back pocket 😉

After all of the hooplah it has been revealed that Colin Kaepernick has never ever been registered to vote.

Next time Ford tries to add work to your job remember you can take a knee and Ford will respect your right to express your view.

They just opened up Pandora's box by saying "We respect individuals' rights to express their views, even if they are not ones we share" This will be everyone's, well, select few, get out of jail free card, if you know what I mean.

Fortunately the first amendment only protects people from GOVERNMENT interference, and even that is limited. It doesn't exactly cover you on private property or in private business on its own. So if some idiot decides to walk off the job to "protest" something they're in for a surprise when they get punished for refusal to work. I'd love to see the look on their stupid, protesting face then. |

Must be why they decided to extend A-plan to aunts,uncles, nieces, and nephews. Perhaps they have lost sales.

"“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," Kaepernick said when asked to explain his protest" Does anyone know what all this oppression is? I'm out and about all day sometimes and see blacks and whites shopping in the same stores, spending money, eating together in restaurants, taking their kids to the same schools, working together at the same businesses... I see black police, black managers, black business owners. I see with my own eyes blacks freely living side by side with whites. When I lived in a black area in the deep South throughout my childhood many blacks there had it better than many of the whites in the same areas. So can someone please tell me wtf all this horrible oppression is? And before you say "police brutality" I've seen cops beat the shit out of white people who didn't do what they were told too, so that argument isn't cutting it. |

It’s all so silly. Who cares if someone stands or kneels? Personally i wouldn’t kneel but that’s me, everyone has the right to do what they want/feel like they need to do. Meanwhile folks in Puerto Rico have no electricity, food, or water for weeks now. Bigger issues around than silly things like this. Stay safe people

Actully when your on the job, your right to free speech is limited. Your employer has the right to limit what you can say or do. That's not opinion that's fact.

Spoiled millionaires. When they put that uniform on, they are getting paid. I pay them to entertain me, not their meaningless opinions. Why don't they protest the biggest violent crimes in the US? Just look up the FBI crime stats from 2016. These dipshits need to stand at JFK airport and watch when a flag draped coffin arrives from the sand pit, as a widow and her children weep. F#ck these spoiled NFL asswipes. |

The military and responders wear uniforms. |
