That was pretty mild. Probably helped that there’s only 5,000 people there.


~16,800, I believe I heard they allowed 22% capacity.

Example of said racism you're trying to end?

And it's stupid because it's never going to happen. People are always going to dislike people that are different than them.
It's a personal choice. You can shame it as much as you want...aint going to change a damn thing.

Eta - BLM and rioting isn't making white america more sympathetic to black people. In case you were wondering. The whole thing will have the exact opposite reaction as intended.

People on social media are saying people were booing because they love racism. That’s such horse crap. They were booing the politicizing of sports. That’s isn’t hard to see if you are honest. But the end of the day, the booing probably wasn’t helpful.

Riots


I guess you refer to them as protests. The point was hypocrisy.

Endless tweets from athletes about “Silence is Violence” and “We can’t stay silent”, then they have a chance to speak out on national TV and decide to opt for a moment of silence lol.

Nor was playing the Black National Anthem. If we're unified... we don't have separate (but equal?) national anthems for every race.

The NFL isn't for unity. They are supporting a racial separatist movement.

The NFL will see a big drop in revenue this year. They will blame it on Covid.

Posted in the other thread.

The booing probably wasn't just about the mid-field moment of silence.

Remember that earlier in the day or day before, the Chiefs announced that no Indian headdress or facepaint would be allowed in the stadium.

Those fans were already pissed off, and this just sent them over the edge.

The fans were denied their freedom of speech, while allowing the players to exercise theirs. It's the height of hypocrisy, and the fans recognized it for what it is

Everything the left says they do for unity or equality is in reality sowing more division......do you think the Dim Marxists understand this? Of course they do because it's all about controlling weak minds to build and secure a voting block.

You know, you have to be pretty fricking stupid to not be able to grasp the fact that not being able to wear what you want to wear is a violation of freedom of speech.

You have to be pretty fricking stupid to have actually read the 1st Amendment and concluded that.

"I have the right to wear whatever I want to wear, wherever and whenever I want! It's my right!"




Idiot.

Where else would you shoot someone who is reaching for a weapon with their back turned, smart guy?

Anybody who supports BLM supports riots.

Anybody saying otherwise is a liar.
