At the Boston Tea Party....

At the Boston tea party, Do you think the white English aristocracy complained because the colonists did not treat the tea with enough respect?

when has bending your knee and bowing your head been a sign of disrespect?

they were destroying corporate property.

Im sure the right now would have have them shot by police

If you think about the Boston tea party, It sounds like something anti-fascist would plan.

1) unless it's a employer mandate to stand, i'm fine with them kneeling
2) if they are kneeling because of police brutality, they cannot then be advocating that only police should have the guns
3) this is a stupid assed analogy that isn't even close to whats going on.

 

[Jarod]

It’s very similar, except the NFL players are not destroying anything.

how in the blue fuck is police brutality even equitable to excessive taxation on tea???? (see what I did there with 'blue'?)

Do you respect tea?

Evince believes the federal government is the monarchy, when they aren't voted in by russians, or conservatives

We don't want a bend of your knee only the snap of your necks.

I like it!

So? Why is that relevant? They were opposing their government.

No, but the English consider it a national symbol.

Gerud, do you love America or do you love Great Britain? This equivalency game can and does only work on leftists for a glaring and obvious reason (I ask the same question of the pro-Confederate crowd when discussing the Civil War). If you and I were loyalists, discussing these affairs together during our first weekend in Halifax, after having been driven out of New England by our obnoxious neighbors - then you'd have a point.

It is all relative, the point is that sometimes it is appropriate, even patriotic, to complain and protest something your nation is doing.
