This helps Trump. MANY people believe that our country has lost its identity.

Best thing he did was convert into a kneel. Still conveys a sense of reverence, unlike a sit. I imagine we will see MANY players kneeling on Sunday.

KAEPERNICK STARTED A MOVEMENT....

Of course, when you let in all these immigrants who don't have American values, like that Khan guy, the identity of the country becomes lost.

Multi-culturalism is a failed experiment. America is proof of that. Nor does a country work with people having different religions or no religion.

As for Kaepernick protesting Black oppression, he's wrongly scapegoating the American flag, which he doesn't understand stands for the freedom which allows him to make his remarks, when he should be talking about the self-inflicted misery of black people and how they can do better. It's easier to blame someone else than to find fault with oneself.

Broncos MLB Brandon Marshall he explained his reason for taking a knee during the National Anthem:

"I'm against social injustice. I'm not against the military, the police or America at all. I'm against social injustice," Marshall said. "I felt this was the right thing to do."

That's fine, but there is never not going to be social injustice in some capacity. I think the percentage of people who are pro-social justice is quite low. I don't know anything about this (not the former Bear) Brandon Marshall, but this just seems like naive grandstanding.

Things would have been a lot easier if this is what Kaepernick had said at the start instead of what he did.

Why do we need to modify these words?

What is the point of "social" injustice? Wouldn't it be good enough to say you are against injustice? Or are there other kinds of injustice that you support?

What is the difference between a "lived" experience and a simple experience? Aren't all experiences lived?

I doubt he'd define social injustice as him making millions of dollars for his job while educators have difficulty making middle class wages. However, that is social injustice.

I am against social injustice, so I will protest a symbol of the federal government and military by sitting for 2 minutes rather than stand. Wow. What's next sending a Tweet?

At best this protest is going to hurt marginal acts from getting the chance to sing the anthem at sporting events.

So we have people here who believe that a significant percentage of police don't treat people of color differently?

Ever met a cop? Or logged on to the SecondCity blog?
Hint: when they refer to "animals" they are not talking about white people.


And to those saying "what does this change? There will always be social injustice"

Couldn't you have said that to Rosa Parks?

Welcome back. Troll away....

The issue Rosa Parks raised was widely known about before her move on the bus and there would be social injustice after her.

People have given those exact reasons to diminish or mock CK

the one knee thing doesn't seem that disrespectful. it's not like the guys standing up next to Brandon Marshall are locked in at parade rest. FF was on to something with the twitter-tards bombing https://twitter.com/bmarshall instead of https://twitter.com/bmarshh54

maybe BMarsh54 was in the locker room pre-game, "watch this, I'm gonna blow-up BMarsh15's twitter"

I am not reading many people dismissing KAP's cause.

They're quicker to shoot with dark skinned people. Which is why 13% of population make up 25% (at least) of shootings.


And you seem way to smart to think electing Obama means institutional racism is not a problem

Oh and as far as accountability,, it would be nice if someone was held responsible for Freddy Gray's (coury ruled) homicide.

You're not reading this thread were both posting in?

missed this before i posted. agreed.
