The NAACP has is planning to protest President Donald Trump’s Monday trip to Atlanta, reports the Associated Press.

The civil rights group has instructed potential protesters to show up at the national college football championship game with anti-Trump placards in hand and wearing their choice of white attire. The color of the clothing is meant to deride those Trump supporters who label their opponents “snowflake” because they can’t seem to tolerate criticism

A group calling itself Refuse Fascism ATL, is also scheduled to make an appearance in Atlanta. Their demonstration will allegedly support football players who are taking “a knee against Trump.” The kneelers will be gathering outside of CNN’s headquarters.

President Trump will be in Atlanta to attend the College Football National Championship.

The president has repeatedly expressed his extreme disapproval of the trend by some NFL players to “take a knee” and said the NFL owners should insist that players not be allowed to kneel during the playing of the national anthem.

Remember when the NAACP gave Trump awards for his minority policies?

I work overnight and sleep odd hours.

But, um, er, don’t MOST people work during the day?

That makes it kind of hard to go to protests.

They are all wearing “snowflake” white.

How very clever——and I’m sure that Trump will be greatly offended./s

“Are they protesting that too many blacks are working?”

They are protesting that so many blacks are working that not enough people are bored and angry and sitting around all day so not enough people are available to protest. No protesters, no extortion money.

Temps at game time in the low thirties, wet, and tickets are very expensive

They won’t be there

What will Trump do when some of the players kneel during the National Anthem?

I wonder what the coaches will tolerate. I wonder if the NCAA has chimed in with some instruction for the game.

Just another anti-American communist front organization that could give a rat’s azz about black people.

Wearing white? How will we tell them apart from the KKK? (Not that there’s any difference)

Following policy and action by President Trump we have the lowest unemployment rate for Blacks in what, 17 years. Clearly the oppression business isn’t doing well lately.

To protest snowflakes, they dress as snowflakes. Makes perfect sense.

Black unemployment is at an all time low so I guess the NAACP is about something other than black empowerment.

Um. Pretty sure that UGA and UA will not have any kneeling players.

When UGA played OU, the game featured a B-2 flyover during the national anthem.

They’re mad because black unemployment is at the lowest rate ever?

Good point, it's not too far of a toss from there to "Trump is making us slaves, getting us back to working again".
