Dion Waiters skips national anthem. Because he's Muslim.

He finally arrived from the locker room to join the Cavaliers' bench a couple seconds before tip off. Folks started to speculate if he was injured, disgruntled or if this was his way of rebelling?
Turns out, Waiters was just acting in accordance with what he feels his religious beliefs are.
Waiters informed Northeast Ohio Media Group that he is a Muslim and that's the reason he excused himself prior to the national anthem.
"It's because of my religion," Waiters told NEOMG. "That's why I stayed in the locker room."

What does his religion have to do with it?

So should players of other countries and religions in other sports do the same thing? No, tPOS move.

Looks like Darrell Arthur will now be charged with a hate crime.

If he doesn't want to participate in the National Anthem, more power to him.
That being said, what does being Muslim have to do with it?

I want proof that he's not having any premarital sex since he's taking his religion so seriously.

So some one had a talk with him, or he's full of shite.

Yeah I don't get it. jehovah witnesses are the only ones I know of that do this

American Muslims are still citizens
Is he protesting something? Is he an ISIS supporter? Big fan of the Taliban?
Weird issue to take a public stance on, no way to come out on the right side of the argument
Cavs GM Lebron James will have him out by the All Star break if he can't get his shite together

These motherfrickers need to go work in Muslim Countries if they have a problem with our anthem.
