    Now they want to talk about sweatshops.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    When was Kaepernick's cause anything about capitalism or made in America issues? It wasn't, dumbfuck. Try to pay attention.

    MAGA!

    Jimmy Kimmel Calls Out Trump’s Hypocrisy Over Made-In-China Merch
    The “America First” president is still (STILL!) selling merchandise with his name on it that comes from overseas, even as he pushes for tariffs.

    Guess where those goofy ass MAGA hats and flags are made?

    Trump flags and hats made in China are reportedly being held up at customs as trade war heats up

    Just point me to your outrage about that.
    Thought this was about "sacrifice".
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    How so? Neither of us have begun a thread regarding sweat shops.

    So the Castro-supporting Kap lol, signs on the dotted line and becomes the face of a large capitalist enterprise whose reputation was sullied by progressives for using Asian slave labor.

    Only in America lol!
    LMAO!! Boom

    Bottom-Line, Colin doesn't give a Fuck what the Crowd wants him to do.

    Colin sacrificed being someone's Property and chose to be his own Man and go his own way.

    You can either deal with that FACT or not, either way Colin is doing what he wants to do; NOT what you want him to do.

    Case-Closed!

    Have you burned your Nikes today yet, Darthy?
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.
