I applaud Megan Rapinoe's courage to stand up for social injustice.

Why stand unless we live in a utopia right?

There is an endless list of things you can protest. I'd ask why he hasn't been protesting for PTSD vets who commit suicide. Are their lives not important enough for him? The entire protest is illogical. Protesting some nameless, faceless thing with a symbolic gesture will do absolutely nothing, and in fact, make things worse.

Good protests have a tangible goal that can be measured. Laws, policies, etc. etc.

He said he is doing this to raise awareness....was there anyone in America who was unfamiliar with racism or police?
