Re: "The ad features soldiers, first responders, and images of military graves decorated with American flags and gives credit to them for protecting the rights of those like Kaepernick to protest."Protesters do indeed have that right. But we have no obligation to appreciate their protest. And employers have every right to fire employees who protest while they're on the clock. The Constitution does not restrict THEIR behavior with regard to protests.

Government cannot punish those who protest, and it hasn't. So the complaints by flag kneelers that they're somehow being deprived of their rights are misguided. The fact that this has dragged on for so long speaks volumes to the LOUSY job our schools have done of teaching the Constitution. Kids obviously don't understand the 1st Amendment.

CBS Refuses To Air Nine Line Apparel’s Patriotic Ad During The Super Bowl

http://victorygirlsblog.com/cbs-refuses-to-air-nine-line-apparels-patriotic-ad-during-the-super-bowl/

It used to be that those who watch the Super Bowl watched for two reasons. Either to cheer on their team or watch for all the new Super Bowl ads. Then the NFL started getting woke and politically correct and viewership has been tanking. So CBS’s move to arbitrarily dump Nine Line Apparel’s patriotic pro-flag ad because REASONS! is not a good look for CBS nor the NFL.

Keep in mind, the Nike ad showcasing Colin Kaepernick last year was A-ok!

But the ad from Nine Line? Must not air because supposedly the company can’t afford the $7 million price tag for a 45-second spot.

According to the firm, Nine Line Apparel, CBS was apparently not satisfied the firm could pay for the 45-second ad, despite having annual revenues of $25 million. A spokesman for Nine Line charged that CBS didn’t like the ad’s content.
