Why They Take a Knee

The BLM is a criminal bunch who do not represent black people because they kill black people and cops and black cops and never espouse for the good of black people except when boringly repeating that "blacks were salves" over a hundred years ago. Therefore taking the knee is representative of a cult single topic lobbying.
The BLM never mention 50% of violent crime - murders and rapes are committed by people from the 12% representation being black people.

i have no problem with them taking a knee, but does it have to be during the Anthem? why not before the game as a group or after, so that no one confuses their righteous protest against racism and unequal policing and justice systems with being anti-american in general. in every crowd, there has to be a fairly large number of people whose fathers or sons or brothers died fighting for this country, and they will not see the protest, they will only see the disrespect.

I am just going to say it here now loud and clear- WTF DOES THE NATIONAL ANTHEM HAVE TO DO WITH FOOTBALL OR BASEBALL?

Who is the NATIONALIST asshole that started that in the first place?

Do they sing the National Anthem at a Boxing Match? NASCAR? Tennis? Golf? Bowling? Basketball?

I'm not trying to be unpatriotic, but it really has no place in the sports arenas!

It has about as much significance as singing "It'll Be Toothpickin' Time In False Teeth Valley" or "She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain When She Comes" at sporting events!

Oh Well! For me, it'll just be an opportune time to go take a piss or grab a beer before the game starts!

JUST STOP IT ALREADY!

thats a tough one. The pope recently came out for gay marriage and a number of cardinal bishop types are opposed. I am going to suppose excomm will never happen. Given that baptisms are down 34%, membership is down by 2 milliom and the number of catholic churches is down 11% I am going to guess that the papists are going to back off on the excomm thing.

Agreed about the excommunication, but since you had brought it up, I was curious.

yes, Biden suporting marriage equality and reproductive rights probably has him in line for excommunication

i hear that....although, i must say, i kind of liked participating in a "group hug" when the Anthem played...how often do we have a chance to show a little pride in our country along with so many others? it reminds me of singing Auld Lang Syne at New Years...nothing wrong with a little camaraderie....

somebody once said there are 3 kinds of lies- lies, damn lies, and statistics. what your numbers do not take into account is how motivated, generally, ALL RECENT IMMIGRANTS TO THIS COUNTRY ARE...this is their dream, they are highly motivated to work hard, succeed, enjoy the american dream...including latinos, middle easterners, asians AND AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS...a whole different social structure and circumstance than blacks who have lived here their whole lives and descended from slaves. maybe if you had an IQ, and i had enough free time to try to 'splain just how different it is, you might could get a fucking clue and quit being such a racist piece of shit. but i doubt it. suffice to say, the differences between any races are so small that they have absolutely nothing to do with murder rates or income producing or any of that silly ass shit, boy. it is way more dependent upon nurture, not nature.

And to the point you won't hear Republicans condemn such racism overseas, (unless it's Christians getting abused somewhere) but you do see liberal human rights organizations
largely funded by the United States do so, and working against that. So... his point is assailed in two ways.

Pilecki cherry-picks statistics meaning he's lying with numbers.

I'd like to see the murder statistics by culture of 1930s New York and Chicago. My guess is that it was mostly the Dagos and the Micks (AKA my ancestors) killing each other, not the African-Americans.

99.9% of the bullshit racists bring up is cultural, not genetic.

My experience tells me these African immigrants from Africa don't like African Americans, and vice versa.

We have a Nigerian dude here in Pawling, NY.

My father & myself spent 2 hours talking to him.

Most of the gist was that African Americans are lazy due to welfare.

He's a landlord & said Black women in the USA just sit around pop out babies & get benefits.

On the other hand a Ghana immigrant girl I went to college with spent like 95% of her time with me & 0% of her time with other Black Americans who dominated the college wiggling their butts blasting Gangster Rap music in the cafeteria skipping class.

Now, the vice versa.
In that very college a Black American called people in Africa as inbred savages.

Considering how I came from a neighborhood that was like 80% Italian & Irish.

Would you believe they're still not all that, when it comes to moral core sensibilities.

Eastern Europeans, are just better people, with a few exceptions like Albanians, Lithuanians & Russians.

Example A.)
About 12
Italian / Irish kids threw rocks at geese & stole a row boat.

Only 2 people objected, my Polish American friend & my self.

Example B.)
My Hungarian friend & myself hung around about 10 Italian Irish kids.

The ring leader a known drug dealer of half Italian, half Irish descent who had the bright idea to steal out oil f cars.

My Hungarian friend & myself were the only to object & run away from the losers.

Example C.)
An Italian friend lent me a bike with no brakes.

I didn't realize slid over the handlebars hit the pavement head first & got TKO.

Out of 4 Italians/ Irish dudes & one Polish American dude,guess who stayed & guess who fled the scene?

Right, the Pole stayed by my side, the Micks &inal Ginzos fled.

I remember when Jimi Hendrix played the Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock, and all the upity-ups had a litter of kittens over it. Well, all I can say about that was, it WAS ORIGINAL! LOL!

But, as strange as that was, it is no stranger than the way all of these yahoo's that sing it today at the ball games. I ask myself sometimes, "Did I just hear the Star Spangled Banner- or did somebody just gargle over a microphone?" Was that a Tarzan yell or what? Was that the Yodeling version?

Jimi Hendrix was an amazing guitar player.

Still, seems to illustrate Black privilege.

Commonly called the #1 guitarist till this day.

Maybe Hendrix was the best for a decade.

Then came along White Texan Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Then came along Swedish Yvnie Malmsteen.

Polish American Paul Gilbert.

Italian American Petrucci.

Washington DC American Marty Friedman.

Italian American Steve Vai.

Polish American Ron Jarzombek.

Many more.

Still a favorite on my Spotify playlist along with All Along the Watchtower and Voodoo Child.

Never been. Although I've been golfing once, most of my time near a golf course was spent drunk on the driving range trying to hit the little armored cart shagging balls. Only played a little tennis. Never watched a match but did see a couple of movies.

https://www.usopen.org/en_US/content/us_open_anthem_auditions.html
The US Open Anthem Auditions are back in 2020 for its 14th year, offering the opportunity for kids 14 years or younger to submit an online audition to sing “America the Beautiful” live in Arthur Ashe Stadium during this year’s US Open, with thousands of fans in attendance.
