So his knee and sitting during the anthem was to show what? That he views this country as not worth honoring, right? If you want to suggest he means no disrespect to the flag or the country it represents, he just thinks it beneath honoring, we're playing semantics.

Also, again, his words were quite clear. He resents this country because of his own worldview. Which is perfectly fine. And those who disagree with him have every reason and right to judge him for that accordingly.

He didn't stick the finger or say frick this or pretend to shite on the flag or anything.


Well how decent of him. Thanks for that I guess.

Just like that super strength lie y'all got about Michael brown and sterling on video getting popped.


Michael Brown and Alton Sterling were clear as frick cases. They both deserved to get shot.

Alton Sterling, a convicted felon child molestor that had a gun, was repeatedly told to not reach for it, and resisted arrest. There are multiple videos reviewed by the DOJ that were not made available to the public that were apparently extremely clear.

Michael Brown, the gentle giant that had just got done robbing a convenience store and assaulting the store owner moments before, charged at a police officer, with dozens of reliable eye witness accounts. The OBAMA run DOJ completely cleared the officer of all charges. There is now documented evidence that the "Hands Up Don't Shoot" meme was completely fabricated by a known community agitator in the scene shortly after.

We can't help it if your community picks the wrong "victims" and causes.

Maybe use the same insane fervor on blacks killing blacks, drug dealers, single family homes, and lack of education...just a thought.

Well, they were. The DOJ completely cleared the officers.

You want to get into sticky situations? Minnesota and Oklahoma were tough cases.

Alton Sterling and Michael Brown? Not so much.

Not really. You are attacking a strawman, I am not. I don't expect you to understand or to even want to understand the difference.

Do you actually believe the only police shootings are innocent blacks by white cops?

Tom did not respond like a boss.

He as an owner, both his teams staff, and the players (his employees) chose a political stance. Now they are receiving the consequences from their decision making political stances. He is trying to do damage control days after this happened. This move shows he does not care about the fan base he lost.

They chose a side and they need to live with their decision good or bad!

Agreed. All these letters coming out from team ownership to fans is purely reactionary to realizing they backed the wrong horse

And who's feeding you? You know the best way to avoid confrontation with cops? STOP BREAKING THE LAW! And both of the names you dropped were criminals who broke the law
