Steven Seagal Thinks NFL Protests are "Disgusting," In Case you Were Wondering

For some reason, Steven Seagal got dragged into the NFL protest debate. Just when we thought we couldn't line up any more chuckleheads to weigh in on NFL players' police brutality protests, someone decided to ask Steven Seagal what he thought of the whole ordeal. I can't tell you exactly why, but I'm guessing it wouldn't surprise you if I were to say that Piers Morgan was involved.

In any event, Seagal was asked to appear on Good Morning Britain, which he decided would be best done if he were wearing robes and an evil version of John Lennon's glasses, with a thickly-spired Moscow backdrop (he's a Russian citizen now), and a hair dye job done at a Hot Topic retirement party, thus making him a randomizer machine's optimal output of a James Bond villain.

And his answer isn't too far off from the part:

After Seagal rattled off some sympathetic nonsense about Trump being unable to pass legislation because of criticism, Morgan invariably moved on to the 'we're-all-old-white-people-here-right?' question about Seagal's feelings about "black football players taking the knee."

Seagal said something about believing in free speech, but that the protests were "outrageous, I think it's a joke, it's disgusting." In the middle of his grown-Teddy-Ruxspin, husky-voiced rant, he even said something about "I myself have risked my life countless times for the American flag," despite never having served in the military. (Maybe he's referring to Under Siege…or Under Siege 2?)

Yet amidst all of the preposterousness that fell out of Seagal's mawing fur circle, the Internet, understandably, decided to focus on some of the weirder aspects of Seagal's whole bag:

Apparently, he also filmed part of a movie where he literally phoned in a fight sequence:

And, finally, there's this sick burn:
