I don't speak for "trumpers" I speak for myself. Peaceful protests are part of the history of this country.Show me one peaceful protest by black people that the trumpers didn't have a problem with.Im not your massa and your not my massa. We are both Americans and we are both entitled to our opinions. My opinion is peaceful protest ON YOUR TIME AND YOUR DIME is always allowed and part of being American. Protesting on the job, in front of thousands of people who have paid a lot of money to be entertained is NOT right and it is certainly not right to in any way denigrate the flag. It may not mean anything to you or the failed QB but it is something VERY important to a lot of Americans of all colors. If you want respect you have to give respect.So tell me massa, how should we people of color protest?I read your post. You know darn well it has everything to do with the flag because Kapearnik used it in his pre game display. He exploited the flag to draw attention to HIMSELF since he was a benched QB with no future in the league. Just like he drew attention to himself in the Nike ads. Just like he drew attention to himself in that joke of a "tryout".Didn’t even read my post.I see a cop doing a terrible thing and I see a failed quarterback doing a terrible thing. One is terrible physically the other is terrible symbolically.Do you understand that the photo on the left is the reason for the photo on the right?I don't have a favorite. They are both terrible in their own way.
It had nothing to do with the military or the flag or anything other than a protest about the treatment of black people.
You might want to let us know what method of protest is acceptable.
Sad.
Seems like we can't do it in a way you approve of.
