I salute the players for standing up for their brothers who are being unjustly decimated by police. They certainly have the right! I applaud them!

Absolutely! It's their right, just like every other American citizen. I wish someone would hire Colin Kaepernick!! What a waste of talent and how chickens^&* of owners not to do so.

I read the no comments and what they are saying is complete bull yes they are paid to play sports but they are also people and last time I checked people are allowed to voice their opinions and could protest as long as they don't go overboard and start doing illegal crimes I don't see a problem.

Athletes have first amendment rights as much as anyone else! They are leaders and are looked up to by young people...They are role models and should take political positions.

They are paid to play a game, And paid really high salaries They are athletes, not politicians and should not politicize sports.Just another example of pandering which prolongs unrest and violence..

Sport is entertainment. When it stops being entertaining, there is no longer any reason to watch.

Don't most people protesting social issues do so on their own time? I think it is very weak just because you have a forum.

They can believe what they want. But to protest not to play when they get paid millions of dollars to do is ridiculous. Just makes more people not want to watch sports.

The Oregon government and local police force has done a HORRIBLE job at keeping crime down, protecting cities, citizens and federal agents. If they can't do their job, TRUMP WILL.

Oh yeah, Trump did a great protecting when he incited the riot at the Capital on January 6th. Then had the unmitigated gall to pardon his MAGA idots for their crimes. What a guy...

NO

Trump's a big man-baby... needs to get his own house in order before sticking his nose in our business...and what's -her -name is just a mouthpiece...no original thought on anything...

I usually spend a number of days each month in the Portland area, including downtown. Having worked in downtown Portland for many years, yes it's not what it once was. Having said that, it's definitely not a "war zone" and nothing like Trump and his minions would like you to think.

A bunch of crap from the Trump administration that hopes to incite a violent response that justifies the use of violence and military action. Illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional. Get them out!

Because the exaggeration of conditions in Portland, LA, memphis and Chicago is nowhere near the actual events. He and his henchpeople including traitor dereamer are only creating a reason to occupy american cities and attack the democrats.

It’s a very small minority that’s causing a problem and for the most part, the marches are peaceful and none-combative. Portland’s problems, generally speaking; are the homeless sleeping on the streets and trashing the area, and not people marching in the streets.
