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.

The NFL takes the knee.
NFL Protests Expected To Be The Norm Today In Response To Trump
Football players have been galvanized by criticism from the president.
All eyes are on the NFL today ― but not just for what happens after the kickoffs.
NFL players throughout the country are expected to demonstrate before today’s games in defiance of President Trump’s harsh criticism of athletes who kneel during the national anthem. In a Friday speech in Alabama, he called such players “sons of bitches,” and then doubled down on his criticism in a series of follow-up posts on Twitter.
The first such protest occurred Sunday morning in London, and even included the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Shahid Khan. He linked arms with his players — several of whom were kneeling during the anthem —*despite having donated $1 million to Trump’s inaugural committee.
Trump’s comments have already sparked a*large social media response from a variety of professional athletes and celebrities, including singer Stevie Wonder, who took a knee during a performance Saturday night.
Bruce Maxwell, a catcher for the Oakland Athletics, became the first major league baseball player to take a knee during the national anthem Saturday night.
It’s anticipated that players on many NFL teams will link arms, hold flags and kneel as shows of unity, rather than walking out, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported.*Several players announced their intentions on social media before the games, encouraging others to demonstrate with them.

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.
The internal rules of the nfl are none of trumps business.

Why won't you condemn ignorant "patriots" who wear the flag to Trump rallies?

Any reason why I should? I'm not responsible for enforcing a flag code, and I didn't make this statement in this thread:
So, since I never whined "about folks taking a knee during the national anthem" or excused "the blatant disrespect shown by beer bellied rednecks who WEAR the American flag, which is CLEARLY a violation of the US flag code", why should I condemn people who wear flags?
People are so terrified of differing opinions in this country.
I can't believe anyone is defending Trump's call for a boycott. All ego, at the expense of local economies.
Total shame on Trump. Yet another example of how he puts himself ahead of American jobs & livelihoods.
