I don't give a frick what he is kneeling for. He could be kneeling to stop vet clinics from feeding dogs peanut butter for all I care. My ENTIRE GRIPE with all of this is that people are trying to say they are patriots and get upset when someone exercises their RIGHTS.
I neither agree or disagree with this protest because I don't have all the facts. I haven't had the time to seek out reliable sources and do my due diligence, and I'm sure as frick not going to believe what I hear on CNN or Fox News. I have a lot of other shite going on and I'm not going to crucify him over something I don't know myself.
It sure pisses me off when people who spout how much they love America get angry at their fellow countrymen for exercising their rights.

Mother fricker, he does not have a right to protest in his uniform at his job.

Here are some facts.
-More unarmed white people were killed by police last year than black people.
-Same was true in 2016.
-You are more likely to be killed by a bee, wasp or hornet than you are by a cop if you are unarmed.
-You are twice as likely to get struck by lightning.
-You are five times more likely to get hit by a train and die than you are to be killed by a police officer if you don’t have a gun
-Black people are 12% of the population yet commit over half the murders in our country every year
-If every unarmed black person shot and killed by cops didn’t happen, over 99% of black murders would still occur

I don’t watch the NFL and it’s not because of the kneeling crap. The thing I find the most offensive about the NFL/NBA/NHL/MBL is that millions of people support professional sports in such an extremist fashion that an athlete will make 10 times more in a year than a school teacher will make in their lifetime. Then those same people who waste their lives away watching the sport will complain about how much money the athletes are making and the lack of education their child is receiving. Bottom line...there’s more to life than a GD football game!

We Patriots despise those that despise America, which Reid does! Being a Patriot doesn't mean we celebrate that other people can spew crap about America. But you wouldn't understand that now would you?
