Just a random thought. It's almost comical that these are the two jackasses leading these national anthem protests about racial discrimination. One was raised his entire life by white parents. And the other was probably the most privileged African American kid growing up in Dutchtown. The guy came from a wealthy family and grew up playing premiere soccer with all the private school kids from Baton Rouge. Guy's never been oppressed a day in his life.

They’ve pretty much said it isn’t about them but bringing attention to black people who don’t have a national spotlight.

But whatever.

I dont Agree with them either, but at least know what you’re disagreeing with.

Just need to segregate the NFL. Then everyone can honor their respective anthems. Whites can control the white players' actions and vice versa. Problem solved.

Do the same for NBA as well. Another problem solved.

Lift every voice and sing,
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty,
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the list’ning skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory is won.

He was oppressed when he didn't get any offers from the NFL.

This is usually how it works. In my experience, the nicest, kindest, most genuine blacks I've met were from very poor areas.

The ones who grew up with money or "privilege" acted like they had to prove something. Always trying to act hard and overcompensate.

It's amazing that NFL owners don't want players that will create a bunch of drama and piss off a large portion of their fan base. Who knew?
