First off, you don't "execute" people for treason. You arrest and try them in the criminal justice system. Yes, the system is flawed, but when due process breaks down, we all live in a world of terror. Of course, maybe you were just skipping steps, declaring your desired end result after a proper arrest and fair trial.
Should he be arrested for treason, then? Have you even READ the Constitution? Article 3, section 3: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." He did not levy war against the US. He did not provide aid and comfort to the country's enemies. He knelt during a moment of jingoistic bombast. You can argue about what "levying war" specifically is, but it's a helluva lot more than "refusing to pay homage to a rag on a stick".

He can do what he wants. There is nothing treasonous about it. He is exercising a right. If anyone is treasonous, it's the people who want to take that right away from him. It's a form of free speech. If free speech only applies to people you agree with, then there is no free speech at all.
What the hell is wrong with you? You know, I'm glad we don't have a stupid pledge of allegiance in my country. He just kneeled, and you believe he deserved to be killed?

Whoa, slow down there little guy. This comment makes me think you don't understand what it means to be an American. You should probably go find some other country to live in. Perhaps one that doesn't care much for individual liberty would be more to your liking.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 A cowardly white geek bigot hating on a rich black athlete and hypocritically using patriotism to do so? How right-wing!!!
He hates that he has white features and acts the way he does because he wants to be accepted by the black community. But he is mixed and raised by a white family and has a white nose and his name, his name is Colin. SMFH
No, he has the constitutional right to protest. His employer (s) also have the right to fire him if they think his actions damage their business.
Should your parents be executed for giving birth to you?
For what, practicing his freedom of speech
You right wingers are the most anti free speech people I ever metBasically, nobody agrees with your racist question, dude. You should just fuck off.
Of course you wouldn't have the balls to ask this un-anonymously -_-
No but he needs to give a large amount of his pro salary to helping his fellow black people. Put is damn money where his mouth is.
I think that we should all recognize that he is the worst QB in the history of the SF franchise and doesn't deserve to be in the NFL.
