Instead of kneeling for the anthem maybe they can become bigger activists and protest absent black fathers, black on black crime and the fact 52% of murder is committed by 13% of the population

So white guys cannot stand against the government execution of citizens without due process?


6% of the american population is african american males, that little group makes up over 50% of the violent offender population in our prison. If you don't understand why cops and the rest of society look at african american males differently from indian-american males or asian-american males then I dont know what to tell you. Statistics don't lie.

I would support this 100%. Wouldn't support disrespecting the flag/anthem, of course, but the cause itself would be noble af.

There is no hook. You're just too stupid to realize you are able to be apathetic about it. Actual oppressed people aren't

Throwing a little ad hominem in there definitely changes my opinion that you're just trolling.

I'm apathetic about it.

Do I haz white privilege?

Also, minorities aren't being oppressed in the USA in 2017. I've lived abroad and seen actual ethnic oppression. Nothing here even comes close to that.

First, you state that all citizens are prosecuted fairly, which is a joke.

Then, you state that we should have racially equal patrolling of neighborhoods by police, which has ZERO to do with prosecution.

Time to step away from the keyboard this morning. You're drunk.

Wanna cookie or a sucker? Oppression here is not the same as oppression in say the Baltics. You know this, you're smarter than this.

Hell oppression in NWA is not the same oppression as in say Dallas, NOLA, LA. But it is still oppression in some form.

nobody in the United States is oppressed. We have free will here, you can work as hard as you want, as many jobs as you want and move up. That isn't available anywhere else. Poor people here can easily make $20k a year if they go pick up a minimum wage job and just do the bare minimum, let me know what doing the bare minimum gets you in the middle east or in africa. It is ridiculous the support you guys just blindly give the poor. Upward mobility is available to anyone who is willing to work for it in the United States, plenty of minorities thrive there, but to say we have oppressed people here is laughable. We have a whole lot of lazy people, yes, but nobody is oppressed. We dont have dictators slaughtering villages and we dont have people starving bc they're working so hard they cant feed themselves.

You're a white apologist. Darryl James was completely right and I'm surprised he got so much shite for calling you what you are. I have nothing wrong with it. But you don't speak for most black men & women. But hey all these white folks will dap you up

Aww that's cute, are you whitesplaining? I thought, by the rules of identity politics, African American's opinions defeat white people's opinions with regards to race relations.

I think this whole kneeling thing is stupid, but people can take action in support of others even if they haven't experienced the exact things they are taking action about. Of course, it would be better to take an action that actually accomplishes something.

Here are 4 ways of oppression in the USA
