Drew’s principles folded faster than a pup tent in a tornado.

I once had a neighbor in Denver who loved La Raza. He smoked a lot of pot. So he was a dumbass.

I really hope there is a resurgence of the Confederate Flag. It is an important part of our history. Whether they like it or not.

I think the poor guy is very confused. By everything. He needs to go home and retire.

Drew Brees’ mistake, as well as practically any white NFL or NBA coach or player to the right of Gregg Popavich is to say anything at all because no matter what they say, if it isn’t a complete kneeldown to BLM and Antifa, is going to be ripped to shreds by the Twitterati and woke media.

Blacks are more than 50% of the players. They don’t seem, generally, mature enough to listen to any criticism from whites so my advice is not to fracture your locker room and just shut up. Even positive-sounding quotes will be thoroughly trashed as if the n-word had just been spoken so don’t go there. Don’t give them any fuel for that fire.

Agree. It’s a shame we don’t have freedom of speech anymore. He should not have given the dude an opening. Let’s talk about football, cuz I don’t discuss politics or religion. If the chump pushes it, just say dude, I guess I am not getting through to you. It’s football, or it’s nothing. Which word do you not understand?

Then I'm sure that the author of this piece would agree that there's absolutely nothing wrong with trampling on the American flag - or on the "Black Lives Matter" flag, for that matter, right?

Drew thought he’d be safe once he apologized.

Ultimately, being a good citizen sometimes conflicts with being good parents.

This is as close as many of them will come to acknowledging that the world they dream of would require the destruction of the family, and of most of what makes us human.

Moreover, what NO ONE will acknowledge is that even if rich white liberals disadvantage their own children deliberately in the name of social justice, all they are really doing is making their child pay for the parents' good fortune. They are far more comfortable voting for things that disadvantage whites in other social classes than their own, both above them and below them, again, to make other whites pay for what they have but feel they don't deserve.
