Cowboys/Cardinals show the way to do it

Well, Trump stepped in and straightened things out so everyone should be happy now lol.

When have liberals ever been happy? Somewhere, somehow, someone is always a victim, and if liberals aren't whining for someone else to fix things with tax dollars (not theirs, of course), they're consumed with guilt and miserable.
 
It's a win/win. Be happy already...geeeeesh! Let the genuflecting mean what ever each guy wants it to mean and let it go. I've now heard 5 different versions of what it means since Kap first did it. So, whatever. Everybody gets a piece of what they wanted. Let's move on and play ball!

It's a bit like the Occupy movement where hardly anyone knew exactly what they were protesting lol. Or you'd ask five different people and they'd give you five different reasons.

I think some of these people were just born too late. Forty or fifty years ago they would have something concrete to protest over.
 
There isn't a rulebook for expressing dissent.

No, but there are unwritten conventions that help to bond the country together. It's simple: protest without disrespecting the flag or *giving the appearance* of disrespecting it.

It's real easy to get the idea the left wants to do away with them.
 
It was supposed to be about race but since no one saw it that way, swing and a miss. This made a more clear statement, ergo it had the desired effect.

Help bond the country together?

A Trump supporter is actually saying that without irony?
 
Sorry .. this isn't about the flag, the military, or patriotism .. it's all about race and attacking black athletes .. and the NFL has demonstrated extraordinary unity in standing up against Trump.

Not sure how you thinks this benefits the right.

So first it was about Police brutality, then a shift to systemic racism in society, now Trump?

And what does Trump have to do with the flag, how do you connect that?

And just a heads up, you disrespect that flag in front of me you will feeeel the pain of patriotism.
And there's lots of "me" out there, so take a look over your shoulder should you choose such a weak attempt at whatever it is that has gotten you so mad. We're MAD too.
 
As I have told you every time, ask Mr. Mueller. Its his investigation, not mine. You can be sure that the Trump crime family is under investigation, something you never had regarding President Obama.

Had, being the key concept.

Congress is looking into the unmasking under the Obama administration. Mueller may doing it too, for all we know.
 
There was plenty of division before Trump came along.

You disagree with the point or was that your concession?

And Trump was furious about it during the campaign, and blamed Obama, and said he'd fix it.

Everything he does it intended to divide us further. He has singled out a small segment of his base, and that is the only group he cares about pleasing.

Trump had a point.
 
If a wool dyed rightard trumpbot approves then it was sanitized to white old fart specifications and misses the mark.
 
The observation that there is division is fairly meaningless. What is important is to examine what is dividing us, which side is right, and what can be done.

The division as relevant to this discussion can be identified. One side observes racial injustice and oppression that harms black people and elevates white people.
That is the cause more embraced by the left. The cause for which the right is fighting can fairly and accurately be described as being fed up with having to hear
about racial injustice and oppression that harms black people and elevates white people
.

As between the two causes, it is fairly obvious that the former is the righteous one and the later can be characterized as totally lacking in humanity and empathy. "The gall of
these black people to continuously annoy us with their plight!" No, it's not the flag. That's a digression. White people are simple fed up with being annoyed. "Enough already"
It's like your wife fell out of bed and she had the nerve to break her collar bone and you are just pissed your sleep was interrupted. THe flag is simply a misdirection to cover
the true issue for them. They are fed up to the gills with race as an issue at all. Guess what? It aint going anywhere until it is solved.
