play here. I'll give a few here and my own answers to those questions:
Q. Is there an objective standard for morality?
A. Yes. God, the creator of everything sets the standard for morality... and it is a perfect standard.
Q. Does someone have a right to express their opinion as to whether or not a particular person or country has acted in immoral fashion.
A. In the United States, yes. In Muslim countries disrespecting Allah, Islam or Muhammad merits a death penalty.
Q. In the U.S. if someone publicly disrespects the pledge of allegiance, do the customers of that person's employer have a right to express their opinion that the employee has upset/angered/irritated them and that because of it they will alter their buying decisions spending less money on that employer's product(s)?
A. Yes.
Q. If the employer feels that the employees' actions are upsetting customers, does he/she/it have a right to tell the employee to stop doing those actions?
A. That depends upon the actions in question, but in this instance, yes, the employer could easily prohibit things like disrespecting the US flag in public &/or in social media etc.
Q. Could employers make fine or otherwise punish players who did so anyway, including things such as fining, suspending, firing, reducing playing time etc.?
A. Yes.
