Zake....Legion Troll has earned his name for a reason. He has trolled JPP for years under numerous sock puppets. The moderators decided to let him stay on JPP only under the condition that he use the moniker "Legion Troll" and would be perma-banned if he trolled using any of his legion of sock puppets.

Legion is a master Troll, I will give him credit there, but that's the only purpose he serves. You would be best off ignoring him altogether as he's not interested in an adult conversation. So please...don't feed the troll. :)

I appreciate your being my spirit guide. So far, I've agreed with your assessments

This. Ignore is a beautiful feature
 
I think it's strange to tell someone that because they've made a lot of money, they should really just pipe down and be happy, and not try to express themselves with regard to problems that they see around them.

It's hilarious. Only poor people should have the right to express dissatisfaction with our society, I guess.

And Trump, of course, who says America isn't great.
 
His black father, knocked up his white mother, and then ran of,f then she left him to be raised by TWO WHITE PEOPLE, he got great education, and privileges, and now makes more money than he could ever spend, so he can sit down a stfu about how oppressed he is! He certainly has the right to sit, it was given by men, and women, of all race color and creed, when they died for that right. He is a giant turd who recently converted to Islam!

Is that so? Must have been very recently. Cite your source for that tidbit.

Kaepernick was baptized Methodist, confirmed Lutheran, and attended a Baptist church during his college years.

Kaepernick spoke about his faith saying, "My faith is the basis from where my game comes from. I’ve been very blessed to have the talent to play the game that I do and be successful at it. I think God guides me through every day and helps me take the right steps and has helped me to get to where I’m at. When I step on the field, I always say a prayer, say I am thankful to be able to wake up that morning and go out there and try to glorify the Lord with what I do on the field. I think if you go out and try to do that, no matter what you do on the field, you can be happy about what you did."

Kaepernick has multiple tattoos. His right arm features a scroll with the Bible verse Psalm 18:39 written on it. Tattooed under the scroll are praying hands with the phrase "To God The Glory" written on them. To the left of both the scroll and praying hands is the word "Faith" written vertically. His left arm features a Christian cross with the words "Heaven Sent" on it referring to Jesus. Written above and below the cross is the phrase "GOD WILL GUIDE ME". Written to the left and right of the cross is the Bible verse Psalm 27:3. His chest features the phrase "Against All Odds" and artwork around it that represents "inner strength, spiritual growth, and humility". His back features a mural of angels against demons.

Near the end of the 2012 NFL season, Kaepernick's signature touchdown celebration earned him a photo fad by his namesake, called "Kaepernicking". The signature touchdown pose involves flexing and kissing the bicep of his right arm. Kaepernick says he kisses his "Faith", "To God The Glory", and Psalm 18:39 tattoos and the reason he does the celebration is because "...it's my way of saying I don't really care what people think about my tattoos" and "God has brought me this far. He has laid out a phenomenal path for me. And I can't do anything but thank Him."

That's splitting hairs.

Is Kaep "whining" about himself? Or is he saying that others are being treated unfairly?

And beyond that, Trump whines all the time that HE is being treated unfairly, and that the system is rigged against him.

You're going to have to do better.

Kaep lives in a country where anyone of any color can do or be anything they want, provided, they'll do like us supposedly privileged white folk do. In other words, if they work for it.

And here comes the irony, he is living testimony to the fact. He's a whinner and a horrible example for young people.

So, we're perfect then. No one should criticize the country, or try to improve it?

Got it.
 
Trump keeps telling us that the system is rigged, & that he's being treated unfairly.

That ain't whining? Why shouldn't he pipe down & just be happy, also? Still trying to figure out the difference between his rhetoric & Kaep's action...
