Steven Seagal compared to 'Bond villain' as he slams NFL protests in bizarre interview

Action star Steven Seagal resurfaced on Wednesday to slam the recent NFL protests during national anthem performances — and Twitter users were quick to compare the Under Seige actor to a “Bond villain” among other taunts.

Appearing from Moscow, where he lives and holds Russian citizenship, Seagal defended President Donald Trump against what he called “the enemies within” before taking NFL players to task for protesting police brutality and racial injustice while the “Star-Spangled Banner” plays.

“I believe in free speech, I believe that everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, but I don’t agree that they should hold the United States of America or the world hostage by taking a venue where people are tuning in to watch a football game and imposing their political views,” Seagal said during an interview with Good Morning Britain and host Piers Morgan. “I think it’s outrageous, I think it’s a joke, it’s disgusting. I respect the American flag. I myself have risked my life countless times for the American flag. And I don’t understand or agree with this kind of behavior. I think it’s an outrage.”

Seagal’s interview quickly went viral, with many on Twitter surprised by both his comments and his physical appearance.

Seagal’s comments echo rhetoric said by Trump, who last week slammed NFL players for protesting. “Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out. He’s fired. He’s fired!'” Trump said on Friday during a rally in Alabama. “You know, some owner is going to do that. He’s going to say, ‘That guy that disrespects our flag, he’s fired.’ And that owner, they don’t know it. They don’t know it. They’ll be the most popular person, for a week. They’ll be the most popular person in this country.”

Trump continued his attacks against the NFL on Twitter and claiming his stance against the protests — which began last year when former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick protested police brutality and injustice — had “nothing to do with race.”

“It is about respect for our Country, Flag and National Anthem. NFL must respect this!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

she was honest about what she thought, and it got her fired. Her fellow travelers at cbs probably said the exact same thing, this woman says it too publicly. Cnn said essentially the thing and it’s supposed to be ok.

And they are wrong about their stereotype.

I was just about to apologise for spreading fake news. Seems I just spread real news prematurely.

I think after taken off life support it took awhile. d**n cruel but there’s no middle ground for the medical community. either the religious zealots or euthanasia crowd take it too far.

I was just thinking last night about how many singers trying to get back on tour after not having done it for decades die. Tom petty faired better but I’d bet the tours toll on his body was too much. Possibly drugs too.

My first memory of Tom petty was the video where he was dressed like the mad hatter. I saw it in the 90s when I was a kid, looked it up is was shocked to see it was from 1985.
Anyway this video cemented the image of him to me as the cool freaky guy who could be the mad hatter.

Suspicious but not definitive.
This guy transfer $100k to the Philippines that’s the payment schemes terrorists use, could be a lot of other things as well. Just from what I know of the Middle East this smells bad, may not be terrorist related but as we used to say spidy sense is going off.
I wouldn’t be surprised if more conspirators are found.

Just an aside There was a guy who talked to us about IEDs who mentioned the Oklahoma City bombing and that the signature in that bomb was found in other bombs all over the Middle East. Meaning that there was another involved not prosecuted or named by the government. I
Don’t go for conspiracy theories but I do believe in the incompetence of the government .

According to Splash Report’s sources: “There are conversations about locking up Daniel Craig to be Nathaniel Essex aka Mr Sinister in Gambit and also in other X-Men movies.” ------they never learn

I understand those rumours have been denied, but when you have two sources saying two different things, it's hard to know which one to believe.

I'm not familiar with Gambit. Whenever I hear the name, I think of Gareth Hunt in The New Avengers (the '70s TV show, not the Marvel comic).

Gambit is a Cajun gambler, kind of a scoundrel ladies man if I had to describe him briefly. I thought the guy who played him in the wolverine move did a good job, Beef Chunk Tatum would be ok for another mutant or cowboy like he was in Kingsman 2.

Mike Gambit would have made a great Bond.

Blade Runner 2049 is projected to make $51 million domestic and $100 million worldwide on its opening weekend. I was a bit wary of this, because sequels made so long after the original don't exactly have a great track record. But this one has been gathering 5-star reviews like nobody's business, so I may have to give it a go.
