So now it's official! NAACP supports racist BLM and their unpatriotic anti-police agenda!
How refreshingly honest!

Quiet. Send a man to argue your position.

I don’t agree with the NAACP here, but I also don’t agree with your old man leaving a social media device in the kitchen.

Shame.

1st amendment protects you from the government, not your employer.

The NAACP must only hire Southern University Law School grads to advise it on constitutional law.....

Well damn, John Rocker should own the Braves by now for getting his "rights" trampled on when he was shite-canned for his diatribes.

LOL. They think you have a "right" to political statements during employer time.

ROFLMAO

And they think you have a right to play too!

So tired of people using this phrase in workplaces.

Free speech? Do it on your own time and on your own dime.

If someone is paying you not to be an a-hole, you don't have a right to be an a-hole and ruin their companies reputation, product and revenue.

Doesn't the NAACP have lawyers?

NAACP lawyers are usually far better than that.

just when I think the NAACP can't discredit themselves any further, they rise to the challenge


still the L.A. chapter claiming that a space themed graduation card was racist for using the term "black holes" is my favorite

they had a press conference and everything headed by the kind of illiterates you would expect to claim that it is racist.

If their lawyers were good they would probably not be working for the NAACP and instead be part of a big firm.

I couldn't care less about the whole protest, it doesn't offend me of affect me in any way, but this is stupid. As their employer, he can absolutely tell them what to do and not to do on the job. Just like, you know, every other employer.

yeah, i'm not sure how many people know that this is an organization with double digit IQ illiterates

again, youtube "hallmark black hole racist"
