that's why I was conservative and went with 18 months.
At the tire place this morning. Only white person here. Ga Tech v BC game is on. National anthem played. Nobody stood up. I was already standing. Patriot.
Note: in ATL.

Colin Kaepernick's decision to sit during the national anthem in protest of racial injustice and police brutality, as well as his critical words directed at officers across the nation, have the Santa Clara police union saying its officers might stop working San Francisco 49ers home games.

I get these decisions, but to me it doesn't help the idea of an always benevolent police force.

This is illegal and stupid.
That's how it always works. When someone does something un-PC, SJWs fuss until they get fired. Yais protests!I don't think it's illegal, but I agree it's pretty dumb. The 49ers should only care about what Kaepernick does inasmuch as it reflects upon the organization as a whole and impacts the team's success. I don't think too many people outside of the Santa Clara police department thought less of the 49ers because of what Kaepernick has done, so for the union to put the onus on the team to take action makes them look petty and vindictive.
Horseshit. The cops who are bellyaching are being crybabies.
One man's temper tantrum is another's protest.
Don't see how or why it would be illegal since these assignments are generally volunteer, but it absolutely doesn't help the perception of police officers in the least. Also probably doesn't assist them in making arguments in the future of "we're going to do our jobs to protect society regardless of what neighborhood we're in." To me if they refuse to take on voluntary assignments because they're offended how long until they refuse to do their required jobs in areas where the majority of people are fed up with their treatment at the hands of an increasingly militarized police force?
Meh. Stand up and take criticism like a man.
