NFL Players Kneel, Raise Fists During National Anthem in Preseason Games

No, it sucks. Lots of flooding north of me, but we've been pretty lucky...so far.
A friend shared pictures....literally cars floating by and just a huge mess....fingers crossed that it doesn't get like that where you are....

So far...so good. Smaller creeks and streams are high, but no road closures. I live pretty high above all of it, one of a number of reasons I chose to buy a home where I did. But, I didn't plan 30 yrs. ago that there would be a small development built above me or the woods timbered next to me. Lots of runoff and a trickle of water is now coming in my basement, nothing serious though.
 
It has changed the dialogue.

YOU are talking about it...TOP is talking about it...people all over the country are talking about it.

That was has to come first.

The results may not be apparent for years.

But it will have to crawl up your ass before YOU see it...and "crawl up your ass" it will do.

Results? Is that supposed to be cops sacrificing their lives to thuglets like Michael Brown and others who threaten their lives?

Well, that is never going to happen. Cops will never take bullets from criminals just because they are 'black'. Ain't gonna happen nor should it.
 
Hasn't changed them to what? Disrespecting the National Anthem?

That from the party that puts the interests of Russia and Putin before America. :palm:

Pissing and moaning about a song while Russia attacks us .. then claiming to be 'patriotic.'

Is there no intelligent life on the Right?
 
Maybe by "it hasn't changed anything" they mean it hasn't changed them. :innocent:

Exactly. BTW, if the protests are useless and pointless and stupid -- why then are the Trumpanzees, from the Great Orange Ape down, all incensed about them? I suspect that they know in their hearts that the players are righteous, and that their message is being heard.

No, we respect the flag and all those who have died for it. A foreign concept to you, I know.

We are repulsed by dumb, overpaid pawns shitting on it for political purposes.

Shit on the flag on your time and your dime.

Fuck your Idols .... if Shit on People, no one will give a Fuck about who or what you worship.

The People make up America, the Flag is just a Symbol that represents a place.

Just thought I would quote you again...in larger type and bolded.

ABSOLUTELY!

The nonsense coming from the American right on this issue is putrid.

The protesting players are more respectful of the Republic than the right-wing rabble.

Fuck your flag, the power structure shit on it long ago with endless bogus wars and global occupations of empire coupled with the power of the state murdering unarmed citizens in the street; things real conservatives would never abide.

They didn't fight and die for the flag, jerkoff. They fought and died for the ideals of the Republic...one of which the protestors are exercising.



A foreign concept to you, I know.

The entire issue of the ideals of the Republic are foreign to you pretend patriots.

We are repulsed by dumb, overpaid pawns shitting on it for political purposes.

Shit on the flag on your time and your dime.

YOU are shitting on free speech...and pretending to be honoring the nation and its ideals...when in fact, it is you and others like you who are the violators of those concepts.

You are confused. Free speech isn't guaranteed under a private business. Police stations, on the other hand, are govt entities and they can shit on a flag 24/7 in front of one of those.

If I show up on my job and cause a scene 'protesting' something, I could be fired.

You wanna shit all over the American flag, do it on your time and your dime.

Same for the publicly funded homages to the militarist corporate state that nfl games have become.

Kap sacrificed his little job, quit your snowflaking. Just because your employer owns you doesn't mean everyone will sell themselves like you.

You're the confused one shoog, you don't get shit to say about who does what when.
 
You are confused.

The confusion is all yours.


Free speech isn't guaranteed under a private business.

The first amendment prohibits government from abridging free speech. FREE SPEECH IS WHAT THE REPUBLIC IS ALL ABOUT. If you think these people cannot exercise their free speech the way they are...you are even more an asshole than I think you are...and I think you are a HUGE asshole.

The protestors are not shitting on the flag...YOU ASSHOLES are shitting on the ideals which make this nation a great nation.

Okay...so let the teams fire whom they want to fire. They have that right.

Have you wondered why they haven't?

You wanna shit all over the American flag, do it on your time and your dime.

You must be one of those assholes who has a huge flag on his pick-up...and thinks the people staring at him for being an asshole are staring at him in adoration of his patriotism.

The American right has no clue about what true patriotism is all about.
