Ravens take a knee in London, but stand for God save the Queen.

Cmom BAC....Think.
If Trump had threatened to use government force to fire them -yes that would be a violation.
He did not. he implored/agitated for, but did not promise any sanctions -therefore it's not a violation of the first.

Would you right-wing lemmings stop telling others to 'Think' .. something none of you ever seem to do. Think?

... and, I don't give a fuck about what you and other right-wing lemmings think about the NFL. Did you get that?

[blackascoal]

my my..no need to get pissed at me. You should look at the attendance.it's down and I'm sure this is going to make it worse. I provided a cross section of reactions

They do NOT care about their fans who overwhelmingly disapprove of this horseshit on the field

this has now become political -agreed? whatever sanctimonious misguided crap was at work before
now Trump and Goodell have made it political..

Sure .. and the New Youk Times is going into the dumps .. according to that lying piece of shit you call president ..

Long time fan now a ex fan of the ravens don't disrespect the flag ? Kneeling for American's anthem and then standing for GB's is like spitting on every American who fought for this country will burn my ravens shirts today
...

What the fuck do you know about patriotism and respect for the flag? You are the number one Confederate cheerleader on this board, demanding that we honor and respect traitors who took up arms to kill American soldiers serving under the stars and stripes. You are going to lecture others about respect for the flag? Surely, you jest.

Secondly, I ran into a lot of war mongers and false patriots like you during the run up to the Iraq War disaster. Poseurs who took it upon themselves to tell me the right way to protest the war, or to demand I shut up and get in line behind that war.

The problem here is your fat, orange clown of a president, who has not the slightest clue what it means to act presidential, to have class, and to have a demeanor worthy of the Oval Office.

There are many black athletes that work for and support projects that better the lives of inner city kids.

This latest rounds of protests has everything to do with Trump.

Virtue signalling and gesture politics at its finest, I'd be a lot more impressed if they shut their mouths and opened their wallets, rather than bending their knees.

NYTimes is living off Fake news -but why bring this up?
LOOK at the attendance. It;s down, see where it goes from here now that this has become a "political football"

understood. Kap should have been doing that long ago -not just setting it up now.

Ray Rice was EXCORIATED for hitting his wife in a moment of drunken stupidity -but already had been doing extensive work w/Baltimore inner city youth..and he did it without a lot of fanfare. he did it for the kids.
That was a true patriot at work!

Kap slides/Rice loses his job..WTF?

I hope they all keep disrespecting America. And, I hope more and more people pull their financial support, not buying tickets and swag and not buying from their televised sponsors. It's no longer the National Football League...it's Nobody's Football League because they do not respect or represent the Nation. Let'm all get paid $15/hour by Sharpton, Jackson, Waters and the BLM. None of these modern playas could even carry the water for the Hall of Fame greats of the past. Good riddance to all of'm.

Nobody's disrespecting America. And what's your deal with acting like it's only black people who were kneeling?

[christiefan915]

Yeah, move back to Africa niggers!

And he wonders why we think he's a racist.

[dukkha]

* ya.it's a grotesques display for disrespect for the" Republic and which it stands"..(pledge)
there were many ways for these jerks to help improve black lives, or live at risk besides INSULTING our flag.

It's showboating feel good, and it disrespects the founders/the military and the entire nation.
They are privledged to be millionaires, while they act like petulant children

BLM has a much more targeted agenda. they don;t disrespect the USA in total

[christiefan915]

They are within their rights to be naughty kneelers, and you are within your rights to ignore their silly symbolic virtue-signaling display.

It's worth noting that not a single black American's life will be bettered by such nonsense.

It's too bad the Ravens don't go to Chicago and talk the brothers into laying down their arms.

How... not strange.... that you didn't call out Irish for his post. "Why don't they move back to Africa if they hate the flag and US so much?"

Waiting for the spin cycle.

I hereby condemn Irish for his post. I freely make this statement of condemnation without reservation or purpose of evasion.

I also extend a blanket condemnation to all who have uttered racist remarks now, in the past, or the future, world without end.

Looks like you just got caught in the spin cycle, Christiecrite.

[Русский агент]

Why don't they move back to Africa.

I condemn that remark, Irish.
