You can sit down or get on your knees to protest the national anthem, but God forbid an army vet stand to honor our nation.
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin is going after one of his players, Afghan war veteran, Alejandro Villanueva for being proud of the country he risked his life to protect.
The majority of the Steelers decided during a team meeting to hide in their locker room like cowards instead of stepping to the sidelines (as NFL league rules require) for the playing of the national anthem.
One man refused to be a sheep and play the liberal hashtag activism game for a cause they can’t even clearly define because let’s be honest – alleged police brutality hasn’t changed one lick since Trump started his successful presidential campaign.
And unlike the guy who started this whole controversy, Colin Kaepernick’s, whose activism consists of posting pictures of cops depicted as pigs to his social media accounts and dropping to his knees, Villanueva knows the cost of freedom of speech and the protection thereof. As such Villanueva is one of their targets.
Continue to the next page to hear what Steelers coach Mike Tomlin had to say about Alejandro Villanueva having the audacity to be proud of his country, and the men fighting to keep multi-millionaire meathead athletes like Kaepernick safe at night.
The coach is a Joke. Fire his dumb$#%&!@*
Stupid$#%&!@*
Fire him he’s racists.If this had been a black player he wouldn’t say a word.
I suppose he will be traded soon…
You say everyone has rights, but this man’s coach evidently doesn’t agree. This football went with his convictions to support the flag and the anthem, just as the others considered it their right not to do so.
Freedom of speech Let’s the other players do what they want but trashes a veteran. What an idiot.
Liberal masks are slipping. Big time.
Mike Tomlin ~ while you and the rest of your Steelers team were “hiding” in the locker room, Alejandro Villanueva was the only one who had the “balls” to stand and salute his country and his flag! How dare you put him down! He is the only man among you. The NFL has written rules that players stand, holding their helmets in their left hand, their hands over their hearts and respect their flag. You should read them sometime!
What an awesome idea.
Replace that dark coach for being racist
