My prediction last spring was if they force the blacks to stand during the anthem they would raise the black fist. What is their cause anyway? No Justice no peace? It appears to me their goal now is prison reform, i.e. to not arrest any black person no matter what they were engaged in.
Trump called their bluff on the prison issue. He asked NFL players to give him the names of those they think deserve to be pardoned. Of course, they didn’t have any but mumbled generalities about prison reform. It proved these players have no idea what they are talking about. Just about every person in prison should stay there. They’re not a bunch of innocents who got long prison sentences for smoking a few joints.
