The usual anti-racism crowd is punting.....
In early June, Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints refused to take a knee because he didn’t want to insult the flag. Black NFL players lined up to denounce him.
‘Ignorant,’ said his black teammate Emmanuel Sanders.
‘Drew’s words were extremely painful to hear,’ another black Saint, Malcolm Jenkins said, ‘and I hope he rectifies them with real action.’
‘If you don’t speak about racism, then you’re a part of the problem,’ said A.J. Brown of the Tennessee Titans.
A month later, in early July, DeSean Jackson of the Philadelphia Eagles posted on Instagram an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory attributed to the noted sports fan Adolf Hitler. None of Jackson’s NFL peers, black or white, has said a word. Colin Kaepernick, who is usually so vocal about racism, has been uncharacteristically silent. The New York Times, usually so quick to denounce imaginary offenses against the speech-code mania of the day, said nothing at all. The leaders of Black Lives Matter didn’t order their minions to add this outburst of racism to their to-do list either.
From which we conclude that Jackson’s knee-taking peers in the locker room, the icons of BLM and the gatekeepers of the ‘paper of record’ either agree with him, or think it’s not a big deal, or think that black racism toward Jews should be overlooked in the name of the greater cause of ‘anti-racism’. In a way, it doesn’t really matter which. Any society that establishes any of these beliefs as acceptable – ‘normalized’ as the guardians of speech now say – is heading to perdition.

Individuals make comments. This is not about individuals.
It’s about corporate Marxism.
The Country is being torn apart by the likes of Disney, Comcast, ATT, NFL, NBA, NASCAAR... big-mouthed, in-your-face corporations that don’t give a damn about a harmonious America.
Silence is Violence. Oh, wait.
How many Jewish players are there in the NFL?
*** Philly Metro Ping ***
It is interesting to hear sports TV mugs spouting off on how the NBA is now controlled by the players and not the owners. Truth be told, the NBA is owned by the players’ agents. Not one NBA player in twenty is capable of reading a contract let alone preparing one. Just so long as the player has a little bling then alls right with the world and the agents know it. Thus the agents find a friendly “fiduciary” to handle the players dough. The usual outcome: At age fifty the player is on welfare.
And the Jewish owner & Jewish GM of the Eagles just roll-over for this?
Jenkins along with Howie Long’s doofus kid were a cancer on the team.
They have voiced their concern.
Concern. That’s the best they can muster. You want to get control of this lockeroom? Cut him. That’ll send a message loud & clear that all these other NFL malcontents will understand. Cuz once he’s cut, he’s radioactive like Kaepernick.
The NFL is dead. This guy will be robbing Quicky Marts in 3 years.
Store Clerk Lives Matter.
ALL of this stuff is media driven, I think. The MSM is no longer serving their constitutionally protected function. They truly have become full on enemies of this country, or our domestic tranquility. They need to be destroyed.
But some people on our side have to step up too. Drew Breeze should have told the carpers to pound sand.

When I was growing up in the 60s and 70s, the Left was the ones who screamed about anti-Semitism every chance they got. Then, somehow, they flipped sides over to the Muslims and the Jew-hating on the Left has been rampant ever since although, if cornered, the Left will still blame the Right as the anti-Semites.
Some does Hollywood. Funny that.
Well, I wouldn’t be too hard on him. I think it’s very commendable when people with mental handicaps, like Downs Syndrome sufferers and wide receivers, can hold down a job.
Cause he’s black and they don’t want to be canceled.
Wild guess...because he is black???
I agree.
NFL is dead.
Hopefully the NBA is right behind it.
I hope hockey makes it - just because it will infuriate the black racists.
Don’t know but Julian Edelman of the Patriots and team owner Bob Kraft, both
Jewish, expressed their condolences
after the Squirrel Hill (Pittsburgh)
Tree of Life synagogue massacre.
Because they are racist that’s why
But the notion of a black racist or racist other than somebody white is totally foreign to the media and the politicians
Just another example of how out of touch they are with real people
In this latest fiasco beginning with rap sheet Floyd I have not heard one mention of black racism or black crime
Not one time
