When A. Scott Bolden appeared on Fox News to defend National Football League players who protest racism by kneeling during the national anthem, he instead found himself under attack.
“You’re wearing thousand-dollar cuff links; don’t give me the victim card!” host Tucker Carlson told Bolden, who is black and a partner in an international law firm. “Those cuff links cost more than my first car!”
After the September appearance, Bolden said racist messages flooded his voice mail and email.

Well it feels like a kick when people kneel, especially when a lot of my family and extended family are with the police or military/veterans
“The United States has become a place where entertainers and professional athletes are mistaken for people of importance.”

The headline is bogus. The issue was hypocrisy, not wealth.
Ok, so the NFL is hemorrhaging fans and the BLM crowd is taking a beating on the kneeling issue, so why not double down and call the National Anthem racist and demand it be changed? One thing is for certain: they never give an inch and they never back down. Defeat is for thee, not for me. Republicans could learn a thing or two.
Any day now I expect to see GOP “leadership”, someone from a southern state, to introduce a measure to change our national anthem to America the Beautiful. If not McTurtle himself then maybe the one who served as a character witness in Bob Menendez’s (D) fraud and bribery trial.
I have a serious case of Negro Fatigue Syndrome.
““The resistance to black advancement is an old problem and repeated pattern in the country, and what whites are reasserting is the privilege of their identity, which translates for many of them into various forms of patriotism and white nationalism,” Muhammad said. “The symbolism of black athletes, a representation of black success, kneeling threatens to take that from them.””
What???

That's pretty good!
Change it to God Bless America.. Easier to sing...
Like so much written by Heinlein.
I like that - makes me wonder if the UCLA shoplifters in China used the “Don’t you know who I am?” line. I’m guessing they regretted it.
I’m probably one of the few people on this thread who actually saw the pornographic pictures this slut made with another woman that got her forced to resign as Miss America. She’s really a disgusting person.
Just as an aside...I have often thought the term African-American was a racial slur. Why would anyone want to identify with with a continental collection of 3rd World hell-holes?
TTFlyer, it must be very contagious. I already have NFS just from reading your posting. Wow!
Poor blacks, the never-ending victims who never does anything nor is ever racial/racist/bigoted.
Oh poor Baby !!!
I guess the ‘black experience’ just isn’t what it used to be. Gotta love Tucker.
Then they will demand it be changed to Allah Bless America, or Gaia Bless America.
It should never be changed from The Star Spangled Banner. I don’t find it hard to sing at all.
Did you post this on the right thread? Not sure what I’m missing.
