You're replying to a banned poster. This same person was perma-banned and has created multiple accounts in an attempt to sneak back on JPP. They don't last long.
I expect we'll see more of him under a different name soon.

Answer me this, Gomer:
The flag stands for "Liberty and Justice for All"
Do you think there's been liberty and justice for all African Americans over the last 100 years?
Every damned one of those kneelers are being paid millions of dollars more than most (probably all) of us here to play a game many of us played for fun in our younger days. They have no reason to disrespect our National Anthem, our country or our flag.

Althea told me...
Yes...they do
No, they don't.
Groan all you want, they are a disgrace to this country, their lack of respect shows this.
They are a bunch of overpaid whiners who chose the wrong thing (the National Anthem has NOTHING to do with it) to "protest," if they have anything to protest at all.
Althea
Althea told me...
Get used to it. The fact that 'the coloreds' are standing up for their rights just kills you...doesn't it?
That's a good thing.
Now let it all out. Nice easy breaths.
And don't forget to stand in your living room every time you hear the anthem.
Standing up for their rights? That's a joke. Their "rights" obviously aren't being "trampled," they make exceptionally good money to play a game, don't they?
Furthermore, I am not racist. Everyone in this country has the same opportunity for success, they themselves are a perfect example, are they not?
I don't despise the fact that they make millions more than I do, but I do despise the fact that they choose to disrespect our National Anthem when the
Anthem has nothing to do with their "protest."
bullshit, you are a racist
...and you're a thoughtless fool.
Althea
Althea told me...
Got your attention....didn't it?
We have a society now that demands we assume that we're being recorded no matter where we go. It wasn't always that way. Sure...cite numbers that suggest cops killing unarmed or otherwise innocent black kids is a rarity. But it's been happening for decades, with no witnesses. Cops should learn that they cannot get away with this behavior anymore, but the problem is that the courts refuse to convict....or the cases never make it past the racist grand juries.
As such....please excuse them while they ruin your moment of false patriotism.

You didn't answer the question. Is it because you're afraid to because it will destroy your argument?
And what difference does it make how much the "kneelers" get paid? You think people can't protest injustices if they're wealthy? That's really a lame argument.
And do you think our country disrespected African Americans over the course of American history?
Stop trying to deflect and answer the questions. A non-answer will speak volumes.
I did answer the questions, yet you failed to see.
This country gives everyone the right to pursue their dreams, doesn't it? They are a perfect example, aren't they?
Kaepernick was protesting the country, was he not? The same country that allowed him to use his talents to excel
to the highest level of their potential, and he, as well as all those other idiots, did the same. So, it's not the country
that's holding them back from pursuing their dreams, is it?
If he, or anyone for that matter, has a "protest," why haven't they taken them to the source? Why aren't they protesting
across the street from police stations? Why aren't they protesting across the street from courthouses when these trials
are going on? Have they written their local or state representatives to look into these "mistreatments"?
Let me ask you this. If I think those athletes are overpaid, should I kneel when I hear the National Anthem, too? Or should
I just refuse to attend their games and refuse to watch them on TV? If I think I'm underpaid in my chosen profession, do you
think I should "protest" the symbols of our country to prove my point, or should I go to my employer to "voice my opinion"?
Should I kneel in front of my desk or in front of the machines I occasionally use to make prototypes? It would no doubt get
my employer's attention, but probably get me fired (it did Kaepernick, didn't it?
). His protest had nothing to do with hisprofession whatsoever, yet he was stupid enough to do it while "at work," wasn't he?
Common sense would dictate going straight to the source of my complaints, wouldn't you think?
Now, to answer your last question, yes, some people over the course of this country's history have disrespected those of
color. But today, not so much, because they themselves are proof this country allows all athletes to achieve their goals and
dreams, just as it does you or I. Does it not? The country, the National Anthem nor the flag hasn't hindered them in any way.
As to the post above yours, what a silly and meaningless rant!
