We reported yesterday that Randy Orton chimed in on the national anthem and American flag controversy sweeping the world of sports. Orton was back on Twitter last night and responded to a story about a North Carolina teacher that was suspended after stomping on an American flag during a history lesson. Here are his tweets:
Suspends? Should fire his ass! https://t.co/dGV0WqSsq2

For those who missed it, Orton had this exchange on the National Anthem protests earlier this week:
If you're sneering that it doesn't take courage to raise your fist during the anthem, then you're one of the reasons why it takes courage.

Sneering? More like shaking my head. Courage? Lol riiiight. Courage. Thats what it takes to stand up and fight, not raise a fist. https://t.co/DqQt11cNmS
