Fans "boo" moment of national unity

What do these meatheads want ? A protest to celebrate inequality ?

I'm not a sports fan myself, but my guess would be is that what they want is to be able yo enjoy watching a football game without a bunch of irrelevant and offensive political bullshit being injected into it.

"Peaceful protest". That's what Trump and his supporters claim they wanted. You are showing that was another lie.


We are happy that the players managed to not attack the fans.

We still are unhappy that they are insulting the nation and it's citizens, at a sporting event.

That you find this confusing, is because of problems in your head, not ours.

There we go. You were offended over a show of unity. As I said.........not happy.


When you support the narrative that the nation is systemically wacist, you insult the nation and it's citizens, at least the white ones.

Doing that, is not a "show of unity" but a divisive political statement and an insult to the fans.


None of those fans, should ever return to that stadium.

Don't. That's their right. Telling others to shut up though is not.


Correct. The League has the Right to say what they want.


If they want to insult the nation and it's citizens, and their fans, that is their right.


Nothing I said, indicated that I thought they should be deprived of their right to speech.


My point was, that the op was wrong. The fans were not booing a "show of unity" but booing a divisive political statement that was very insulting to them.


Would you like to address my comment about the op? Or is that not the type of shit that interests you?

It's sad that you see unity as political.

Who were the ones who made it political first by kneeling or remaining in the locker room for the National Anthem?

You can't have it both ways. If you're going to bring attention to an injustice with political speeches and gestures then you can't very well complain if the response to that is political.


But libs want to have it both ways. They have come to expect special treatment.

Fairness, to them, feels like UNfairness.

It's been apparent to me for some time that social justice warriors have no qualms about sacrificing fairness and equal consideration in the name of "justice". The racism laws in the U.K. that Oz told us about recently is a perfect example of that.
 
This bullshit is more a problem of low self esteem than it is about systemic racism. The only way to defeat that is to compete and better yourself. When you excel, your self esteem improves. Anyone who thinks wallowing in self pity will make things better is a fool destined to remain a loser.

I believe that is true on all sides.

Do you have any clue when it was that Kaepernick started kneeling? 9/16 under Obama. He was sitting before that, under Obama.

And? Kaepernick conveyed his disdain for America when he started kneeling. Whoever is/was the current sitting president is irrelevant.

I didn't see politics mentioned at all last night. Did you?

Whatever happened last night, you made the discussion political when you brought up Trump and his supporters.

I quote: "Peaceful protest'. That's what Trump and his supporters claim they wanted. You are showing that was another lie."

You made it political before Correll did.

What did I say wrong there? The accusations was that last night's show of unity was political. Point it out.

Problem is, you made your remark about Trump and his supporters BEFORE Correll made his remark about the display being a political statement.

I did. That doesn't make the display political.
 

The incident was particularly striking because it was meant as a show of unity rather than any kind of protest with players, both black and white, linking arms.

“Some NFL fans booing the players for standing and locking arms in a moment of silent unity proves that for them the ‘standing for the flag’ was always about perpetuating white supremacy,” wrote Kansas City councilman Eric Bunch on Twitter.

What do these meatheads want ? A protest to celebrate inequality ?
Most on the right – Trump supporters in particular – maintain the wrongheaded notion that there is no inequality.
Where exactly do you claim the law is unequal? I think you're delusional.

It depends on the unity. This was not "unity" at all, but a divisive political statement.

If you support the narrative that the nation is systemically wacist, you are insulting the nation and it's citizens, at least the white ones.


You know that. That is why you are refusing to address that point.

The NFL has the right to express their opinions, however those that disagree with the opinions have every right to voice their opinions. Assholes like who you are dealing with are intolerant of opinions that don’t align with theirs, their ignorance, intolerance, hate and bigotry is their trademark, as we have seen in his responses to you.

You can say what you want but don't say that you support peaceful protest and then complain when people peacefully protest.

Some folk re so stupid they shouldnt be allowed to use cutlery.

Is that why they took yours? Didn’t you say they had to take all sharp objects and place them outside your leashed area?

Indeed, the white supremacists booing demonstrate exactly why the protests are happening, that the protests will never stop happening until the children of the white supremacists renounce their parents' sickening ideology.

You mean until the left brainwashes our children into feeling guilt for something they haven't done? Not THAT is sickening!
 
You mean until the left brainwashes our children into feeling guilt for something they haven't done? Not THAT is sickening!

You mean that you want this to be about your feelings of ignorance and avoidance of the problems in the country of which you are a citizen, Oldestyle?

Nope, that stance is gone now . . . you will be confronted every day with "this is not about you, Oldestyle, but about the real problems we need to correct."

Guess what

The people are just exercising their freedom of speech. It’s a peaceful counter protest. Funny how during a “moment of unity”, these leftwing idiots attack others. So much for “unity”.

You idiots aren’t fooling anyone. You don’t want unity, you want your opposition to your Agenda eradicated.

“Peace, is the absence of opposition to socialism”- Karl Marx.

You will never have peace, because we the people will always oppose socialism, Marxism, and identity politics.
 
As a young man I rarely felt comfortable singing our “National Anthem” at sports stadiums. The “bombs bursting in air” seemed a bit “political” and “off putting” when I just wanted to watch the game.

There was an even earlier time, before the Vietnam War, when I really had sung it at the top of my voice ... bursting with patriotism! But by the Vietnam War it was clear we were dropping most of the bombs ... on people who never did a bit of harm to us. I grew to hate the pompous militarism of the anthem.

So what to do?

Eventually I adopted an old strategy, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do...” I stood and was silent, acting as if I was a dumb foreigner (or American) who just didn’t know the words. Actually I already knew them better than most, and even learned of the dreadful third verse and how it’s author was a friend of Roger Taney of Dred Scott Infamy and one of the richest, most powerful slave owners in the country. Usually nobody noticed me silently standing there. I figured, if I stand to show respect, no hand on heart, silently, that was OK. Hell, when I was traveling I did as much for other nation’s anthems too!

But time doesn’t stand still. By the ‘68 Olympics I already respected our athletes who raised their fists ... and had their careers destroyed for it. I never was a Muhammad Ali fan, and I despised his religious cult, but I respected his refusal to fight in Vietnam, and I felt Malcom X’s appeal.

I recall how the U.S. boycotted the Soviet Olympics in 1980 because they were forced to help a neighboring Afghan government fight off Osama bin Laden and fanatic Islamic Jihadist “freedom fighters” backed by the CIA. I respected the few Western athletes who went anyway...

Today most Americans are still locked into a kind of blind national / militarist fervor, and still react instinctively on these issues. There really are many sides of this issue, and different understandings of patriotism and nationalism and politics and whether they should play a role in sports at all.

I don’t have a hard position on the NFL, actually don’t follow sports much, but I respect the decision of the players who did not want to salute our anthem or any anthem before playing, as also those who kneel or stand or sing. I also think people ought to consider and respect the power and humanity of linking arms in a minute of silence and basic human solidarity.

Everybody can sing, or at least listen respectfully, to the beautiful “Lift Every Heart and Sing.” Here are the words, with their deep soulfulness and humanity, for those here who have never heard it before:

Lift Every Voice America Sing

The fact that Twitter blew up over this isn't so important.

Why doesn't Roger Goodell lift the season tickets of those in the crowd showing disrespect for BLM and Antifa?

They can see on video who is booing, and they know where everyone was supposed to be sitting.
 
Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs were harshly criticized on Thursday after fans started booing as the team locked arms with the Houston Texans for racial equality as the National Football League season kicked off on Thursday.

Here’s some of what people were saying about the booing:

I certainly agree. But the NFL is a private business, and there attitude to "**** those who oppose BLM and Antifa" As is their right, and they have chosen to go Woke.
