Statistically speaking, more than a Christian.

He's trying to have it both ways. That argument obviously makes no sense as he was in no way, shape, or form trying to show respect or reverence for the flag by kneeling. He's trying to be clever but people aren't fricking stupid.

Dude you have no clue. I can go into great detail about how idiotic and racist you sound, because you just pigeon holed a race into being a bunch of potheads that frick and do nothing else. Because other races do the exact same shite but you never hear "typical whites" because idiots like you enjoy mocking and OPPRESSING A RACE.

Sucks to hear that about your great grandmother. No one should ever go through something as horrible as that. My sincere condolences.

Dude I'm black lol. I'm not pigeon holing shite. Im calling it exactly how it is.

People don't hold people accountable for their actions anymore, especially in the African American community. This is a country that immigrants dir trying to get to just because there is a chance to make something of themselves.


The only people that oppress black people are black people by allowing this shitty childish behavior to carry on without putting their foot down.

Might be the most appropriate gif in a reply I've ever seen.

Kudos

You do understand some of these guys could easily have similar stories to yours. They don't kneel because they are oppressed, it is them trying to do something for other people.

They didn't go to college for free, they earned that scholarship, you don't get to discredit that because you're angry.

Some of them went to high schools just like yours, and their families are from a period where "real" oppression happened.

Get over yourself.

Yeah, they do it right in the middle of the national anthem all the time.

What a fricking stupid line of "reasoning."

"I'll make one thing clear, it's not about the symbology that people are mad about," Foster said of kneeling, via the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "It's about the message and it's about who's saying it because if it's about a knee that people are upset about, every Sunday, people of faith take a knee to give thanks to their Lord and Savior, whatever faith or whatever religion they are."


This i why these guys shouldn't open their mouths.

Kneeling in church is showing reverence to something (God). Kneeling during the anthem is intentionally showing disrespect to something (The Country).

So if I take a shite on Arian's kitchen table, he would be cool with it?

I mean I shite in toilets and he doesn't get mad, so he would be a hypocrite for getting mad at me for shitting on his table

First off Araian Foster saw all the attention whoring and wasn't going to miss it. Arian Foster is the biggest attention whore and can suck it. So can all these disrespectful POSs that keep kneeling, especially Eric Reid; who is a disgraceful bastard. Once again, if all these protestors really want to make a difference with profiling, they should go into the inner cities and tell people to quit committing crimes. I assumed Eric Reid was smart enough to do research. The profiling is logical if you consider over 50% of murders are committed by a group of people that only make up 18% of the population. Use your brains people. All these people are dumbasses for not doing their homework. Their choices are based on emotion not factual info, which is what stupid people do.

the only thing that is now bothering me about this protest is the continued talk and coverage of it.

I'm really thankful for the faux outrage because it's taken the internet takes to a whole new level.
