What Are the Rules of Conduct in Sportive Protest?

NFL

Some players of the National Footbal League knelt during the playing of the national anthem to protest racism in the United States. President Donald Trump's tweets, in which he called for those players to be sacked and fans to protest the NFL, turned the phenomenon from isolated incidents to whole teams joining in the kneeling protest. The USA Today conducted a poll among voters to find out what Americans think.
