I am glad faculty members were able to discuss these issues of importance. If people with opposing viewpoints don’t have discussions, rather than shouting matches, then our country will continue to radicalize in both directions. I have twice at PCC been shouted down by students in my classroom for simply having a different opinion and it is a serious problem on campus. Nobody speaks their mind out of a fear of being called a racist, islamophobe, sexist, homophobe, etc. However, when I spoke up and set an example the second time, others stood up and defended me while the discussion was able to head in a direction that otherwise would never have happened.

Typically, the politicization of any source of entertainment is going to sour it for some audience members. Alienating a majority of your audience is acceptable and legal, but stupid. The NFL will reap what is sows. They have every right to engage in protest, but the NFL has the ability to reprimand them as they see fit. This is often unfairly enforced, such as patriotic garb (socks for example) being banned on the field. Also, christian and muslim players alike have been reprimanded for praying on the field. It is a good thing Americans are aware of their purchasing power and are sending a message to the NFL with their boycott. The NFL’s hypocrisy shows the entire league has a progressive slant that has been alienating their fans.
