Oh dear.

Is there some sort of repeating yourself virus going around?

In your case it's probably a few fried circuits Robbie.
Or maybe all that mash potato is rusting your hard drive.

When someone starts lacing their posts with profanities I think you'd find things do get ramped up. Of course you wouldn't recognise that on account that you also don't see it when Trump does the same with black people either.

I made my point perfectly clear. From a legal perspective Trump has no more right to 'speak his mind' than anyone else. That is a statement of fact.

You can say that we should treat everything he says with more seriousness - though that can be difficult based on how he conducts himself - or that his words holds more weight. In which case you might want to put down the paper bag when NFL players peacefully protest. It's a non event. Get it in perspective.

My opinoin is nothing to do with 'Black' or Presidents. They are beside the point

It is the validity and exposure of sportsmens opinions and political stance give tghe mass exposure they receive.
I don't accept that whataboutery or perceived social injustice can be used as a counter argument.

It is a straightforward question.

Should sportsmen be allowed to do this stuff without consequence and in any case, does what they think matter a damn relative to anyone elses thoughts or persuations? I say no. They are citizens like everyone else and should not be entitled to use their position to influence the gullible regardless of the reasons.

Of course it isn't.

Emotive hogwash. We all have the same rights.

We don't all have access to millions of viewers though.

Aah the 'emotive' retort. Oh dear another classic deflection technique from your ilk.

Who should speak out about the shooting of unarmed people by police if high profile people aren't allowed in hrolfworld. Someone nobody has heard of and will take no notice of. That would be better for you wouldn't it. Can't let those blacks have a voice.

Buzzing for the same posters saying sport and politics shouldn’t mix getting all angry about England players not being allowed to have poppies on their shirts in a few weeks.

The irony of some people wearing something that represents the endeavours of those that fought so hard against fascism...

Everyone. Just not at a sporting event where you are paid to play, not protest.
If it is all so reasonable, why do FIFA specifically ban political protest at matches?
Because anyone can then use the platform for anything they please.
That would be OK with you all the time it was about Black rights, Islamophobia or lefty politics wouldn't it. But not if it were supportying UKIP.

I am preempting you hypocrisy.
