This kneeling crap is essentially the same as giving speech before or after the anthem.

How would they like a conservative black singer, instead of kneeling, when he or she finished the anthem launched into a Sheriff David Clarke 2-minute dressing down of the BLM.

I know I would love it! I bet the crown would go wild.

Kneeling makes them look like slaves ready to be auctioned off.

So you invented a new race - Knee-gro.

I adopted the name to specify their stance.

By the way, I am not white either!

How about treating people as individuals and not assuming it’s all about one race against another?

That would violate democrat party racial politics.

And without racial politics and racial hatred, they would have no power.

This is ridiculous - beyond the pale.

Most of the 'folks' pulling this crap are indeed beyond the pale.

It reminds me a bit of the way Muslims eagerly prostrate themselves and stick their posteriors in the air in unison.

The totalitarian herd in action.

The official “Black Culture” promulgated by the leftist media as the only authentic one that any black person is allowed to adopt, is indeed an injustice to all decent people, including especially decent blacks who do not want to partake of it.

I don’t get it - what does this “kneeling” even mean? We kneel for prayer and soldiers “take a knee” in battle and none of what is being done by these people represents anything except in their own mind. I don’t know what I’m missing... One guy does it, they all follow suit? How about if one jumps off the Golden Gate Bridge? Can we look forward to them all jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge? Bring it on!

As America becomes more racially diverse and more tolerant, the Marxist agitators are becoming more desperate to paint it as a racist nation. The last race card in their deck that they can still play is the social dysfunction of young Black males. This is what Black Lives Matter is all about.

Every decent American is saddened by the problems that exist in poor Black communities. We would all be very happy if these communities could get their act together. Black people of all ages and both genders are suffering in these communities, but it’s the young Black males who are most prone to delinquent behavior.

The cops aren’t having altercations with elderly Black men or middle aged Black women. It’s always young Black males. As a result, people from all backgrounds are wary of young Black males in certain situations.

The Marxist agitators want us to believe that our wariness of young Black males is not only proof of our racism, but it’s the actual cause (rather than the effect) of young Black male dysfunction.

So when we talk about Black Lives Matter, let’s not get distracted by the small details. Let’s focus on the big picture. And the big picture is that Black Lives Matter is the Marxist Left’s last stand, when it comes to trying paint America as a racist nation.

The existence of young Black males with rap sheets and drug problems wreaking havoc in poor neighborhoods is now being used to indict the whole country.

This movement reeks of desperation. But instead of getting angry at the likes of Colin Kaepernick, we need to calmly educate them about how the Marxist Left is
exploiting a tragic situation for political gain.

“”I wonder if she will kneel for the THOUSANDS of blacks in Chicago who have been murdered by OTHER BLACKS..nah didnt think so..””

Of course not. She doesn’t have any idea why ANYONE has been doing it except someone told her the story on the way to the ballgame and a light bulb came on for her. Ditzy broad! Should we be feeling sorry for them or ostracizing them? I’m for the latter...

Oh she knows about the violence in the inner cities, just like the rest of the BLM terrorist groups, but they dont care..as long as its blacks killing other blacks they are A OK with it..you don’t see them protesting outside of abortion clinics do you..my point exactly..but you can sure as heck bet that if a cop murdered an unborn baby they would be burning that PP clinic to the ground
