Idiots: Protest in a non-violent way that doesn't inconvenience others! NFL players: quietly takes a knee Idiots: No! Not like that! Right on the money Pretty much. NFL players committing crimes? No problem. NFL players speaking out against white police officers' ability to beat up, shoot, or kill black people without facing legal consequences? Grab the torches and pitchforks. The fans boycotting and the owners trying to shut down the anthem protests are all hypocrites, and likely racists too. They just want to watch the modern-day equivalent of gladiator combat from their high horse without caring about the safety and rights (including free speech) of the competitors. Then they try to change the argument into "disrespecting the flag" to skirt around the actual issues at hand, police brutality and non-white people being treated unfairly. --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" http://i.imgur.com/hbJGP5v.jpg <cite>Calwings posted [p:892737377] in Just to be...
