Colin Kaepernick protests anthem due to treatment of minorities

Bingo!

 

Big difference between two issues people have been trying to merge for their own benefit.

BLM blocking highways, ambulance, police, being violent is illegal and bad protest. A player disrespecting the flag because he doesn't like the country is a legit act of protect. People are free to disagree with the message tho.

also in context of the NFL (and thus the player) getting revenue from the DoD, marketing themselves as "America's Game" the disagreement will be more harsh. An NFL crowd is a step away from NASCAR.

He's always been an attention w****, that'll never change.

 

This stat has been mentioned a few times. Here's another breakdown.
Lets round down 10% black population with 50% all murders

10,000 total people

6000 white people
1000 black people
3000 "all other""people

White murders = 1
Black murders = 2
All other murders = 1

Thats 50% of ALL MURDERS by BLACK PEOPLE!!

Lets PROFILE on ALL THE
99.8% Black people that DONT KILL compared to the
99.9% Whites that dont!!

 

I think we can all agree on that.

 

These guys get paid millions. Donate to poor people of color. We need some of your money to show your support.

 

It looks like Eminem is doing his kneeling thing again, this time sporting corn rows and a black friend. Trying to up that street cred every way he can.

 

Lol that dumbass piece of trash on his knee again like a little b****

Freedom of speech. Hope he tears both ACL's going to the cooler

 

Regardless of his politics, what makes him white? His adopted last name?

 

His mom? That's not what I was talking about though, I was suggesting that he was a poser trying to siphon credibility from others like Eminem did with Dre.

 

Got it, didn't know his full history aside from adoption.

 

Yeah well there's not much to know really, his birth mom is white and allegedly his birth father is black but he fled when he found out she was pregnant and she's never revealed his identity to anyone including her parents. So honestly we don't really have any way of knowing his racial composition.

IMO that's not really relevant though. What is relevant is that he was raised privileged and he's disrespecting the flag in order to stay relevant.

If you guys really disagree with Foster you can give his brother , Abdul, a call and tell him how you really feel about his brother. You can find his number real quick if you know what you're doing.

 

What exactly is offensive about it, and what large portion? I literally haven't met a single person against what they are doing, but then again I don't associate with idiots

What is disrespecting? They aren't spitting on it, they aren't burning it,they simply aren't saluting it. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, blind loyalty to anything is stupid. They have legit beefs, just because it doesn't affect you doesn't make it less relevant

Triggered. Hard.

 

Not that this is much of a sport compared to Rugby Union, but has the Malcolm X derivative of Sideshow Bob put forth any measures or steps to start a change?

Or is he is just doing the Shaniqoi thing of bobbing his weave, talking loudly and saying "Mmmhmmm, you don't know me."

I'm an equal rights advocate myself, but it's always embarrassing when low IQ people hurt their cause more than help it. Stand for the anthem, donate your money and time to educating the black community you feel is so oppressed.

Speak up on guns and black culture.

Don't just crip walk and say **** the PO PO with no concrete plan for change. No one worth a damn is impressed by this or thinks it's more courage than ignorance.

 

If all of that was on the table, then you would have the makings of a real "discussion" about the situation with black people and the police.

However, it appears clear that the BLM advocates do not want to have a discussion, unless you consider a one-way lecture to be a discussion, as these people pretty clearly do.

 

Being racially mixed and "disrespecting" the flag is kind of like blasphemy. And by kind of like blasphemy, I mean they aren't crimes.
