I agree with your quote though, the WOD has been a disaster and will continue to be.


The idiot you are responding to is being totally intellectually dishonest. The War on Drugs has very little to do with the protest and has absolutely zero ties to the recent controversial police shootings (Brown, Martin, Sterling, Floyd, etc.).

People with multiple priors tend to get stiffer sentences. Good job being uninformed.

I know, as far as all the rioting going on, has nothing to do with WOD or anything like that.

Whether you like him or not for football reasons, Tom Brady will never participate in some bullshite like that. I am/was (I don't know anymore) a huge Saints fan, but Tom Brady get the most respect from me personally. More black players get my respect than white players, because there are more of them with common sense than apologetic white guilt frick boys.

His initial reasoning was sulking because he got benched.

This all started as a display of a lack of respect for the flag. Kaepernick stated, "I'm not going to stand up to show pride in a flag..."

Kaepernick claims he started kneeling because the cops shot Mario Woods. Mario Woods stabbed an innocent man. Cops arrived. He wouldn't drop the knife. Cops used pepper spray and bean bag rounds. He still wouldn't drop the knife. He started walking towards a cop while still holding the knife. That's when he got shot.

Who are you to speak for Kaep himself who said it IS about not showing respect for the flag?

Really sad that so many of y’all support drew knees after he said he hated cops. Louisiana would literally be Minnesota right now but the brave men and women of law enforcement are holding that thin blue line strong against the looters and rioters


I don't ever recall Drew Brees saying that he hated cops. Provide a source or quit slandering the man.

I truly would not mind if they knelt before the kickoff. Don’t tell me it’s not about the flag or the anthem if you kneel during the anthem.
