Now you want to demand that black people respect you? Why? You don't respect them. I'm hoping you realize it isn't only black people who don't respect you.
Checkers has no respect for anyone.

Come on Arch. In your case we know it's because the NFL accepts women as coaches.
And you know this how?

I GUARANTEE that NONE of you f**e fucking "patriots" stand up and place your hand over your heart while watching a football game at home, so just shut the fuck up with your t*****rous, r****t bulls**t and crawl back under your fucking rocks.

Wow, what a great response. You can't find a way to intelligently respond so you must resort to foul-mouthed name calling. Your liberal far left education is showing its ugly head again. Why is it, when people such as yourself know you have no valid argument to make, you must restore to name calling or just spewing mindless drivel? Can you not put forth points of reason to defend your stance? That is what discussions of different points of view are all about. Oh well, another far lefty down the rabbit-hole.

Other than "taking a knee" have these guys done anything to correct the injustices? Have they toured the country speaking out on their concerns? Have they set up various centers that will explore their concerns? Have they done anything??? Oh yeah.....they took a knee. They have done Jack S#*T. Nothing.
There are always two sides to everything. I do agree, what have they done for this country, ever served in the military, probably not. I did and maybe because of this I get a feeling every time I hear the National Anthem that's hard to explain. When they take a knee I feel that they are spitting in the face of every man and women that has served our great country. On the other hand before cell phones with video recording and body cameras it was always the word of the police and we all know that the police wouldn't lie, don't we. Well guess what, we all know that there are bad police, wish there weren't, as my grandmother said, "wish in one hand and sh!# in the other and see which one fills up first". The NFL does have a right to a policy as they are the employers and set the rules. If you are working for a company and you don't like their rules you are free to leave but where could they go, it's the only game in town. We all know that there is Canadian Football but it's not in this town. Face it we do have a problem in this country with equal justice for all, you can plainly see this on the 5:30 news too many times a week. I would like to see a better approach to solving this issue. If we the people would stop watching football and the company's would drop their financial backing to the NFL through paid advertisements these guys wouldn't be making so much money. Then they could go out and get a real job in what they majored in at college, good luck with that. There are exceptions there too like Richard Sherman, ex-Seahawk and others that did excel in academia. It's way past time to solve this problem on both sides. As has been said before, "Houston, we have a problem"!

I don't know that this was his motivation or that he was even aware of it, but he has a record of misogyny here that indicates it certainly could be his motivation.

I personally don't care one iota about what they want because as typically they have no idea of what to do. The b****s are proving that they don't respect America and the white people.
Maybe if they get off their asses and knees and start becoming real fathers and take responsibility for their own actions.

This is about as r****t as it gets!

Once again you have no idea of what you are talking about.

I am not suggesting that at all. I am saying you apparently do not know how to address an issue without resorting to name calling.

Name calling is Thom's idea of a backbone, it is the best he has.

Do you have any particular posts in mind? I thought I was reasonably good at not calling names. When I have time I'll probably go back through some of my posts and see if I see what you believe you see. When conversing with someone (checkmate or Arch perhaps) that I feel is morally repugnant, or someone who calls names constantly (Elaine?) it can take a great deal of self control to not talk about their parents, but I believe I generally exert that control. If I do name call it probably has much more to do with the person than the issue.

This post, "]Are you suggesting that he is an ass hole but Elaine is a sweetheart?]". As I said, name calling.

Hell, I was watching something on tv and the president and Ms. Trump were there. They played the anthem and she had to put an elbow in his gut to get him to put his hand over where his heart would be, if he had one.
