Spoiled millionaires, proteting WHAT? Do THEY even know?
Are they protesting Liberals rioting, looting, engaging in terrorism / arson / destruction of property, beating / bloodying opposing pilitical party supporters, seditiously calling for military coups and assassinations?
Are they opposing liberal Womens' Marches whete the prominent key note speakers are a woman convicted of kudnapping / torturing / sodomizing / myrdering an 80+yo white man before attempting to ransom his dead body and / or the other speaker - a female cop killer who fled the country?
Are they opposing self-proclaimed anti-American fascist anarchists Antifa who use violence to strip Americans of their Constitutional Rights?
Are they protesting Barry spying on Americans / reporters / the Senate / the USSC, his illegal use of the IRS, his 2 Un-Constitutional wars, his crimes perpetrated in an attempt to stop Trump from winning, his lying to the people of Chicago about his library...?
Are they protesting how athletes get over-paid millions per year when people who really contribute to society - teachers, police officers, firefighters, the military - scrape by on insufficient pay?
Are they protesting how most Americans can't afford to take their families to the games because the price is so unbelievably high?
No. They are following the lead of an ignorant, overpaid, under-talented, out-of-work ballplayer who thinks the country is racist because he doesn't have a job, someone who if they played as well as they made everything about themselves would have won a Super Bowl by now.
No retard. They are protesting the racist national anthem and police brutality.
1. The National Anthem is not 'racist'. Opinion does not make fact, and once again a MINORITY of easily-offended fascists demand the rest of the country bend to their will.
2. Police brutality? More cops get shot / killed on average per year than blacks, and just as many if not more minority cops do the shooting.
Liberals have also created and nurtured the adversarial, anti-cop attitude that has fostered hatred and violence against cops.
As one black comedian said, "I tell my son to fully, politefully, comply with all oders from policemen. If it is a mistake, if they are in the wrong, it will all come out - without violence. Attitude, resisting, defiance, anger - all escalates a situation into something violent and / or deadly.
In the end Trayvon Martin's girlfriend admitted the last thing Martin told her on the phone was that he was going to 'teach this guy a lesson'. He confronted his follower, engaged him physically, and was shot...DEAD
In another famous case, a black child in a man's body disrespected a policeman, attacked him, and was shot and killed by the policeman. Did not have to happen, but the teen gave the officer no choice.
The parents, black leaders, and assholes like Kaepernick who teach hatred, distrust, defiance, and physical confromtation with police are just as much to blame for the violence and shootings.
They aren'r protesting any of that, though, or any other of the other despicable things I listed. They want to condem the entire country for one small piece of everything going wrong in this country...adding to what is wrong in this country.
Again, IMO, they need to get off their knees, like a bunch of 'victims', get on their damn feet, and do something.
Teach respect, honor, peace, patriotism, what is right with this country - like decency, helping one another. Don't kneel alone in silence - stand together, hold hands during the anthem in a show of UNITY - 'ONE NATION'.
When you kneel you piss on the graves of those who thought this nation was so awesome, who believed in that idea of 'one nation under God' so much that they died protecting and fighting for it. They did not drop to their knees in submission of the darkness.
There was also one NFL player - Pat Tilman - who cared so much he gave up his cushy gig playing football and making millions to fight for his country. He didn't take a damn knee - he got on his feet and fought.
F* sub-par talent Collin 'It's all about me' Kaepernick and his sorry-ass justification for why he can't make a team.
And piss on all the spoiled players who prefer to be down on their knees, their own 'Obama Apology Tour-lite', acting out a Simpsos' cartoon version of a 'Michelle -I've bever been proud of my country' Obama skit.
That being said, again...I have fought going on 30 years now for EVERYONE to have the right to exercise their freedom of speech .... not their non-right to escape the consequences of doing so. I will continue to do so.
