I read about a kid that walked into a church and killed several people. It was reported that the police officers took him to a burger joint after he was apprehended. This NEVER would have happened if he were a minority.

You read a lie.

Some on this board bring up the muslim thing and the blm thing like these things have never happened before when whites have done things just as bad or worse, had to have a war to stop them. Will try not to bring up slavery and the dreaded hateful past. but along with hateful muslims, blm, Obama and Hillary. their are whites and blacks that can match these acts.

Can you provide an example of anyone denying Whites have not done anything just as bad or worse? I would like to know if these people are real or just a figment of your imagination.

They read only what fits their agenda, and interpret it in such a way to fit their agenda as well.

Big Girl- Since you seem to be so knowledgeable about these circumstances, can you tell me why the NFL approved of Colin Kaepernick not standing for the National Anthem but DISapproved of the Dallas Cowboys wearing an emblem on their helmet honoring policemen killed in the line of duty?

Individual right vs corporate sponsorship (advertising)

Show me where it says that in the Constitution.

So you don't believe in honoring the dead soldiers who have given their lives so that someone like you can have the right to free speech and get on message boards and run their mouths?

You do know the national anthem dishonors Black American soldiers.

Please enlighten me on how an emblem on a helmet showing respect for police killed in the line of duty is corporate "advertising".  Furthermore, can you tell me why this issue, about which Mr. Kaepernick is so passionate" was not brought forward by Mr. Kaepernick in his prior 3 or 4 years in the league?  Surely he isn't suggesting that things are getting worse under the current administration?

I just ran the lyrics through my head and guess what? I didn't say anything about a black soldier. Would you be so kind as to translate your lyric version? Thanks.

I could care less how they are protesting. I find it laughable what they are protesting.

Interesting! So you laugh when a when an individual is expressing his man-given -rights.. That's SO AMERICAN of you.

did you not read what I wrote.

They (bulls) got someone to play the anthem just so they could protest.  The anthem is not normally played.

And you still miss the point!!!! So what if that is true. DA STATEMENT being made is why they took a knee.

OK  We are still talking about something bad that happened over 40 years ago.  Slavery and it's aftermath were horrible.  We get that.  Today, do you feel that blacks have the opportunity to do anything that whites can do?   I think they have an advantage, if they take it. 

westend, I want you to do us all a favor   Pick three randomly corporate entities and give us a racial breakdown for their employee hiring practices.

westend do me a favor  Go read the numerous studies done when Black applicants are paired up against white applicants.

Didn't read it. Was told by a coach of one of the other teams. and I have been to some of these games in the past and they didn't do the national anthem then either due to time restraints.

Hmmm? Would that be considered un-American? No national anthem because you don't have the time? Hmmm?

Dove- Are you demanding sensitivity training for all of those who don't perceive those lyrics in the same manner you do?

Human Volcanic Sizematic Poortential Erection: I hope my new word phrase gets into WEbster one day. Anyway, it's human behavior traits compared a  volcano. You know, it caused a lot  hell in the past and then laid dormant for (Westend said 40 years) and all a sudden it's start to rumble and rise to the top destroying everything in it's path. Oh back to your police question. I would ask that the Cowboys have emblems of those young kids killed by the police.

If the Cowboys honor your request, will the Bears do the same for all the kids killed in Chicago by people other than the police?   If your new word does not make it into the dictionary, will you be "offended" and kneel during the National Anthem and, perhaps, loot a store or two?

Dove, should I be "offended" that 46% of the NBA head coaches are black while blacks represent 13% of the U.S. population?

You will have a much broader vocabulary from attending this board.....even new words no one has heard of. Lol

Still waiting dove. The words black soldier do not appear in the anthem.

I also think the last line should be changed to.....O'er the land of the free "provided by the brave."

I think Da Dove is referring to the third verse, with which very few people are familiar since that portion is not usually played/sung.  It is a matter of interpretation and not everyone views it as disrespectful to blacks.  However, if one looks hard enough, one can be "offended" by most anything.

Should we start with our local refineries that get tax breaks for hiring minorities?

Does it say somewhere in the lawbooks that the national anthem has to be played.....

do you sing the anthem before you get in your car before work or before you eat dinner or maybe before a pick up game or maybe before you brush your teeth..

 

HMMMMMMMMMM

Never heard that verse before but I am not alone.....
