“Sunday September 20th is the Minnesota Vikings’ home opener, big money day, so what better day to shut the light rail down and disrupt business as usual,” they said in a press release. “Enough is enough of business as usual! We must bring an end to white supremacy and the status quo.”

When will someone have the guts to call this “Group” a terrorist organization, no different than Hamas or Hezbollah

It'd be nice if some actual Vikings got off those trains and showed everyone how much they think black lives matter.

Is this because Teddy Bridgewater isn't "authentically black"?

Probably. He's too articulate, bright, and clean.

If the want to mess with the NFL, why don’t they persuade the Black NFL Players to stay home and forfeit a weeks pay?

Why don’t they demand that all Black musicians pull their music & videos off the air for a week?

Why don’t they demand that everyone in the ‘hood “snitch” on a gangbanger, drive-by gunman or pusher, one per day, for a week, if “Black Lives REALLY Matter”!

Shut them down? They just had a meeting at the White House with Valerie Jarrett. Is this where the plan for the shutdown came from? Is this Valerie’s plan?

ValJar has a season bet, $10k per game, on the Lions. Her bookie won't let her renege.

She thought she was betting Lions vs Christians
