    do you think trump is right when he says POW's are not heroic b/c they were captured?

    do you think he disrespects the flag, the country and those who bled for it when he insults POW's?

    good thing that dude did not get captured or trump would hate him too.

    What about the confederate flag and confederate monuments? Is there anything more anti-patriotic than supporting the flag of something that stands for the dissolution of the united states.

    The guys aren't conservatives, republicans, etc. They're Trumpists.

    It's really incredible that you allowed rapists murderers and drug dealers pay for play right in front of you at the strip club. :rolleyes:

    There is no limit to the stupid things Trump can say and do. His supply of stupidity is limitless...

    The bottom line is… I don't care what any of you think. Everyone here can continue to spew their nonsense.

    Trump aside...

    How effective do you feel these protests are?

    It's just my opinion, but all its seemed to do is ruin Sundays for everyone.

    They are saying that black lives are not given the same right to justice that other races are given within comparatively close circumstances when being stopped by police. It's a reality that this happens and it's a systemic issue dating back to before we were a country. That means that people today did not start this. Other countries deal with similar issues. We're not the only ones.

    Typically when people get sick of circumstances they cannot justify, they protest. When people don't listen, they protest louder. It's typical of democratic societies. To call protest unpatriotic is just another way to give this issue attention, however it is an unintended consequence of making a strong statement against a protest. History in the United States usually sides with justice over time.

    So to me, you have a issue and you can choose a side. The future will determine if you are right about it, but the facts won't change. So, I just try to look at the facts and make my opinion based on that. Not my emotion. I feel like if someone is offended by someone kneeling during the National Anthem, this is an emotional response. Nothing wrong with that though, it probably means you love the United States of America. There's nothing wrong with love. There's also nothing wrong with making our country more loveable to all its inhabitants.

    It's not a spelling error. So, that would be what they call "double fail."

    This is fun.

    Thank you d0n for the clarification. I know that blacks feel they've been disenfranchised by police officers for their actions. The problem I'm having is all of this started during Obama's term, and all of a sudden it's Trumps responsibility to make sure he says everything PC and do what's right by all of the knuckleheads. I say F'em!

    You call it PC, the rest of us call it being professional, respectful, and intelligent- which is what we expect from the President of the United States. We apologize for maintaining a high bar for POTUS, we just figured, you know, since he kinda leads the #1 country in the world...

    You people need to stop messing with my sports!

    Maybe if some of you would do some community service you would know what is the matter in your neighborhoods, but no of course you're not gonna do that.

    Here's another one for you Mr. dork. I've freed my mind today! I am not going to sit back and listen to you people disgrace to this country and lead us into oblivion. Don't you people realize that you are on a hamster wheel, and there is nothing you can do trying to cross the finish line.

    Like a rat does cheese!
