That halftime was a joke, it looked like some Broadway show on LSD with a bunch of limp wristed fag boys and drag queens dressed in leather “Sparkles and shiny stuff and unicorns and rainbows”

Every cop should have walked out of Levi’s Stadium. If the NFL wants to host an anti cop half time, go for it but then police yourself during the second half and after the game.

I haven’t watched a half-time show on the Super Bowl for years.

They need to go back to traditional football half-times...A good marching band or two and stop with all the theater....

Ask David Horowitz about the Black Panthers. Or ask Betty Van Patter. Oh, that’s right: you can’t. She’s dead. They killed her.

Or the inventor of kwanzaa, ron karanga or whatever his name is these days. Is he still working for the University of Cali? I believe he is. Seem to remember something about him torturing some woman or at least being involved somehow. Yeah, some criminals are more equal than others. Wanna bet that billy boy aires retirement is better than mine? But, life ain’t fair now is it?

The black community celebrates their criminals - - then wonders why people are uncomfortable with them... ZERO insight into anyone but themselves...

The Black Panthers were strong supporters of the Second Amendment.

Maybe Beyonce and the other dancers should have shown us their "guns" in honor of the Black Panthers stance.

The Horrific Story That Prompted David Horowitz's Conservative Transformation. Horowitz's experiences with the Black Panthers. Their murder of a friend of his, who he had sent to them to do their bookkeeping, jolted him into leaving the Left.
