I quote what I respond to & give my thoughts. I can’t really be any more specific than what I am.

His opinion about respect for the flag has NOTHING to do with race or police brutality.

The children are behaving as such. 20something year old pro athletes do not get to assign meaning and intent to Brees’s words anymore than he can to theirs.

It all boils down to this.

It's pretty wild because this thought or idea you mentioned is so simple and so logical and yet, the masses just gloss right over it.


Another issue I constantly see in general and directly here are guys saying Brees and those like him constantly make this about disrespect for the flag when it was never meant to be that and it was meant to be about police brutality. This is flat out, 100% false. It was meant to be BOTH. That's not my opinion, that is from the words of Kaep himself, he long ago admitted he wouldn't stand to show pride in the flag and country. So yes, it absolutely is partly about not respecting the flag, that has always been a part of the kneeling.

He "decides" to address things internally, yet he "decides" probably the second after to rant about this on twitter to get his likes and retweets. Sweet logic there Terron. Way to back your teammate.

Yea, it doesn't make sense.

It makes him a bit better than the other guys who didn't go to Brees, but he still didn't handle it correctly IMO. He still blasted it and Brees on Twitter, that still happened.

People that use the term ignorant or uneducated generally are exactly that.

Give me a point by point run down of how blacks are subjected to injustices and oppressed.

No feelings or emotions.

Lol we are generations away from any wide spread charge

It’s 2020 and people like you are still trying to win a race war that you have already been winning for generations.

You have no compassion or empathy or flexibility. You just want to fight it. You’re not secure enough to just acknowledge it.

Then Barack Obama is either a bigger snake oil salesman than I thought he was or he’s just not that smart. I am going with the 1st one.

Popular group think? Wut

Certainly not within your race or region in which you come from

You choose to live in a bubble & that’s fine if that’s where you feel safe. But when you start to fight it is when you start to sound ignorant

To me, it looks like a bunch of BS from Armstead.

"Systemic oppression" ...

So you think they aren't subject to that? You think that they are predominately the ones on the lower end of society and wealth because they are just losers in life as a whole? If that's what you think, which I am not saying it is (but it does sound like it), then that means you think white people are superior which would make you *drumroll*

a racist.


While I don't have time to type out every way in which black people are oppressed and subject to injustices,here's a helpful stat.
