So these athletes have been doing this for provably a year now, but you only suddenly became outraged because Trumplet said somethin.. Dont you guys have brains of your own?

Yes, the First Amendment covers this. However, the First Amendment has to do with Government, NOT whether or not you can protest at work. If your employer says stand or you're fired then that's the right of the employer these people have CHOSEN to work for. Don't like it? Go flip burgers instead. :2 cents:

No company can force you to pray or salute a flag.

Standing at attention is saluting a flag...Just like if your work tried to force you to kneel and pray.. Try to follow along.

Once again that beta bitch Chump opens his mouth and not only makes things worse, but manages to unite people against him.
Now many more players are kneeling and his snowflake supporters are crying

Good for these players getting trump out of the news!

Trump is a egomaniac, he will find a way to make everything about him.. These players have been doing this for months if not more than a year.. If anything Trump just brought awareness and support to them ...

Helix 09-24-2017 12:53 PM

I find it disrespectful.
If ticket sales and viewership drops that would be a good indication of how the rest of the country feels about it.

Yeah, that's why the protest started; because of the racist and hateful disrespect for Black people getting killed when all they wanted to do was be free in America.

The portrayal of Trayvon Martin as a thug when he was murdered by a virtual lunatic racist is why the
protest started.

People who talk about patriotism and never joined the armed forces are a bunch of phony ass
bitches who never did anything for America except suck up the resources like sloppy pigs.
They stand for the anthem because that's all they will ever do for America.

Bunch of lazy fat ass bums talking shit to athletes who break a sweat when they work.
Stupid mother fuckers claim the football workers are "playing".

blackmonsters 09-24-2017 12:57 PM

50 fuck yous :


to fake patriotism of lazy fat mother fuckers who never joined the military and
think they are doing something for America by standing while half ass drunk at a football game.

Isn't it funny how Republicans run around claiming they are patriots yet they keep electing draft dodgers to office..

did you even think aboutthat you might not have to stand at the demolished world trade center if this childish patriotism would not exist?

if even your enemies would realize that people in a country are not one same the other. that they have INDIVIDUAL ideas and philosophies, not hating and not loving the same things?

think about this: a burka and a flag are both only textiles.

I agree with that. I also agree the government is a fucking mess, but the flag represents past heros in my eyes. These athletes don't care about shit , and its only the football players, I haven't seen this in any other sport.

I agree totallly what you say. Lots of disrespect here. But Kneeling disrespect black and white men and women killed in action.in ALL wars. Two wrongs don't make a right. Its all bad tho. My opinion about the kneeling is simply my opinion. There are good arguments both ways.

As I said earlier in the thread, I don't really care whether people stand or sit or whatever during the anthem, but I do find it pretty funny that Trump, a man who used five deferments to avoid the draft so he didn't have to serve in the military during the Vietnam War, is questioning people's patriotism.

Well the US history books completely disrespects Black soldiers who fought in American wars so there is no reason for Blacks to give a shit about some disrespect you feel when they are
protesting about the current murder of Black males with no justice.

Trump is a fat piece of racist garbage who cares more about a piece of colored cloth being symbolically "hurt" than he does about an innocent colored human being murdered.

Before 2009 teams were not on the field for the national anthem. The the US and the military started paying the NFL for ads and paid patriotism. Once the money gets pulled from the NFL then teams will go back to the locker room and all of this kneel, stand, lock-arms. silent protesting ect will be a footnote in the history of the NFL...

Thank you for sharing that.

For all of you that find the NFL players disrespectful, you can follow tRump's advice and boycott football. Take that extra time to read the fucking constitution maybe you'll learn something. Nobody has to stand or salute the flag because you don't fucking like it. Go fuck yourselves. Our soldiers in the military fight and die for the constitution and our right to peaceful protest any fucking way we want. Dumbass motherfuckers. Go suck some more tRump cock.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1968_O...k_Power_salute

Quote:

The 1968 Olympics Black Power salute was a political demonstration conducted by African-American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos during their medal ceremony at the 1968 Summer Olympics in the Olympic Stadium in Mexico City.

After having won gold and bronze medals, respectively, in the 200-meter running event, they turned on the podium to face their flags, and to hear the American national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner". Each athlete raised a black-gloved fist, and kept them raised until the anthem had finished. In addition, Smith, Carlos, and Australian silver medalist Peter Norman all wore human rights badges on their jackets.

In his autobiography, Silent Gesture, Smith stated that the gesture was not a "Black Power" salute, but a "human rights salute". The event is regarded as one of the most overtly political statements in the history of the modern Olympic Games.

Yes i am sure he is totally focused on skin color. Because there is so much to gain by judging people by skin color, right?

Wtf. I hope you are trolling. If you really believe Trump or anyone who is at the top is "racist", you've been duped.

If you can call the "system" prejudiced, it is against the poor born. Literally nobody who calls the shots in one way or the other gives a shit about skin color, simply because it doesn't make sense, they do not gain from it, it's totally useless and not worth their time. Those times are long gone and you have fallen for the lies if you still believe skin color makes a difference.

Even south africa, home of the apartheid, has passed the skin color drama. I've been there and i've seen as much white beggars as black beggars there, and that's a country that has been severely racially segregated until the 90s! There is no big evil plan anymore against skin color, especially not in the developed western world. It does not exist anymore, only in the minds of some people who let themselves get brainwashed by mass media, BLM, etc.

So religion is about what? Seems most religious people pray to god. Religion may have played a big part of civilization but I've never heard of Bill Gates or Mr Westinghouse praying to god for help in developing technology.

Civil rights tend to be about color of skin, not religion People don't ask black people their religion before killing them. They shoot in black churches because of skin color, not religion.

Gravy might be in my head but it surrounds a brain; what's your excuse for air occupying all the space in your head? Of, I forgot, when you don't agree with someone, call them names first before arguing. It makes your argument so much more plausible.

They are protesting and the stink that was raised about it was pretty much the same shit we are hearing about the kneeling now.

It was viewed as disrespectful by many, just as the kneeling is now.

edited in: The NFL players are taking a knee. "Taking a knee" is pretty much a football thing, that is why you will not see athletes other than football players doing that. You do not "Take a knee" in baseball or basketball. They have used other methods of protest at times.But protesting by not standing at attention and facing the flag has been used by more than Football players.
