Georgia cheerleaders to protest anthem in stadium tunnel
Yahoo and AP ^ | 16 Oct 17 | AP

Posted on 10/16/2017 5:45:53 AM PDT by SkyPilot

A group of Georgia cheerleaders say they'll take a knee in the stadium tunnel when the national anthem is played at Saturday's homecoming game since their university moved them off the field after an earlier demonstration.

Kennesaw State University cheerleader Shlondra Young tells The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the so-called "Kennesaw Five" will kneel until the U.S. flag "represents what it should."

The cheerleaders say they've paid attention to the nationwide debate over NFL players kneeling during the anthem, and they prayed before doing so at a Sept. 30 game.

Cobb County Sheriff Neil Warren tells The Marietta Daily Journal he called the school president after that game and was assured the demonstration would not happen again.

School officials say they moved the cheerleaders off the field before games to "improve the fan experience."

“You know, if we elected a black president, all this racial divisiveness would probably disappear”

We did that already except the mistake was he was a libtard. However, if a conservative black president were elected I think we would see much of the same thing because there is no love for conservative government, even though a conservative government is common sense government, pragmatic government, and not a pie-in-the-sky “let’s experiment with your tax dollars” type of government. That’s the problem! Having no issue with paying misused taxes upon taxes upon taxes. Leading me to believe that the left has absolutely no grasp nor understanding of the pocketbook nor their own personal budgetary responsibility.

Winston Churchill once said a young person who is not a liberal has no heart and an older person who who is not a conservative has no brains.

Talking sense to a turnip makes no sense. Raise the voting age and the age limits on holding elected government positions.

Drop all the trash courses in public schools and teach STEM, physical training, and arts (music, fine arts, culinary, cosmetology, industrial, technology etc...). But stress physical training (emphasis on the word training).
I should have been a dictator... and maybe there should be a modicum of dictatorship in childhood development. This junk coming out if the school system theses days sure isn’t showing much promise. Nor, I suspect, will not be pulling its weight down the road.

Throw them off the squad.

Being on a team is a privilege. You can lose that privilege.

When someone puts on a uniform of their school, they are representing that school, Kennesaw State University in this case. Administrators should forbid ANY sort of political demonstration while wearing any of the school’s uniforms.

Kennesaw State University cheerleader Shlondra Young

I guess her sister, Odoriferous Labia Young, didn't make the squad...

When these Welfare Broodmares start putting as much energy into raising these feral vermin as they do naming them their "oppression" might go away.

shlondra, you black loser. Move to some place in africa to discover how good you have it here, you ingrate loser. If it weren’t but for affirmative-action, you’d be cleaning restrooms at a Micky D’s.

This Kaepernick knee bending started under Obama. Zer0 would have encouraged it and used it to push his anti-cop agenda. Our neighborhoods would have erupted in civil lawlessness as our protectors in the law were rendered ineffective. The Left’s efforts for civil revolution will have paid a heavy price against person and property.

This story reminds me of a conversation I once had with a faculty member of a college (not to be named here) that had recently changed its name from "XXXX State University" to "the University of XXXX." He told me that they changed the name of the school as part of a campaign to improve the quality of the students who applied there. They had done some extensive market research and found that unless the name of a state is included in the name (Ohio State, Michigan State, etc.), prospective students tend to associate schools with names in the "________ State University" format as third-rate schools that attract a lot of black students who couldn't even get accepted at more reputable schools under affirmative action programs.

Looks like Kennesaw State fits that description to a T.

Yeah, I even remember some of my friends blabbering that same jibberish in ‘08!

Too bad, he made it worse!

First thing I noticed was black women working at Macy’s had a “Michelle Attitude!”

The problem seems to be with the negro cheerleaders. Why is that?
