“Uncle Tom”

“Coon”

“Sambo”

That is what Jim Brown will be called.

You must be really angry over Jim Brown leaving the plantation.

Well then go to hell, and leave the country.

Oh, the hypocrisy. It burns.

Three young white baseball players quote the N word and you’re all over them like stink on shit. Yet here you are posting derogatory terms in quotes for a non-commie, black, ex-player who won’t buckle to the SJW anti-American agenda. I think you deserve the same treatment as the tweeters. How about that, you embedded SJW?

I am not a SJW. Oh my God, let’s have some unity here. I’m just telling you that is what black leftists and liberals will call him. I’m not a SJW. I’m a hardcore conservative. I posted those baseball stories because people need to know what is going on in the social media. They apologized to the mob and hopefully they learned from it.

Jim Brown was and still is both a tough and stand-up guy. He was nobodies pushover and never ambiguous about where he stood on any issue that mattered to him.

The NFL Players of today and their supporters may not agree with him but would be making a mistake to take Jim Brown lightly on this issue.

Mr. Brown is smart enough to appreciate the fact that lots of brave men and women died fighting under that flag to protect his right to speak-out on social issues.

Excellent anecdote .. thanks !
Those are the NFL days I remember with fondness.
Today’s kneegro thugs can kiss both cheeks of my white ass.
