So you think a movement built on the likes of "Hands Up Don't Shoot" and Alton sterling justified killings is built on truth? Thanks for letting me know to disregard you opinion on anything from here on out.

sorry that means "fixed that for you"
you just reframed my entire sentence, into a completely different argument.

If this is what misery looks like I'm even better off than I thought. Thanks!

Well I would have to hear your definition of what "the average white person" entails. Also, your definition of an average black person needs defining.

I'm a skins fan, I know the feeling. At least you won a super bowl in the last decade. We've been a joke since Snyder got here.

So every player supports this kneeling shite? You sure about that?
The commissioner, about seven or eight owners and many many players have already spoken out in disgust at trumps ignorant, stupid and pandering remarks.
Hell, a major league baseball catcher kneeled tonight and a show of solidarity to the NFL players. First one to do it.
It's less about the movement itself, and more about trump opening his big fricking mouth when he shouldn't have. He called out players for exercising their constitutional right, and in doing so, players, owners and even the commissioner who were not active in the movement are supporting the ones who were. Why? Because our dumbass president felt the need to curse the players who were peacefully protesting.
And in true Trumpkin fashion, The same morons who time and time again apologize for this stupid fricker are doing it again.

Your argument is based on the premise that race is the ultimate determining factor for success and prosperity in the US, when in fact it has more to do with culture.

Well, we can use the median in this case.
and the same for each group.
Scaling based on guardian income, guardian education. I'm sure we can agree on generally the same metrics and from there talk about the hypothetical median individual.

Thats actually not what I'm saying at all. But to say it doesn't have it's place in the equation is a hard argument to make.

Does not equal the entire league as I responded to. Comprehension could have saved you a lot of typing.

Where in the Constitution does it say you have the right to free speech, protest or just sit on your arse while employed?

Why undermine whatever point you were trying to make by including this?
Posted on 9/23/17 at 11:13 pm to LSUconvert
So, in this equation, is race a more determining factor than culture?

Don't forget about wearing the Che Guevara tee shirt and saying he respected him. Only to be upset that Miami went with Cutler instead.....wonder why Miami did that?

Trump commands all the attention int he world, he can stop the world with a single tweet.
He can hold the NFL's feet to the fire as much as he want.
He needs to just keep hammering their inability to address the anthem issue.
Why? Who fricking cares if some football players kneel during the national anthem? This fricking trivial bullshite shouldn't even crack the top 100 of things the President of the United States should be thinking about TODAY, let alone any longer than that.
