Here’s a direct quote from Colin Kaepernick from when he first started kneeling:
“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. “To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”
Kaepernick clearly made this about the flag, and now Trump has it wrong?
So hey, I was thinking about this... do you have anyone you know who plays guitar? The best thing would be to have someone with some playing experience help you find a good guitar. Some guitars look beautiful and play like crap, and others look like crap and play beautifully. I’ve been at guitar shops that have 2-3 of the exact same model of guitar and one of them really stands out in playability. There is definitely an art element to all of this-which makes it really difficult for a beginner, so you have my empathy!
I think it is great that you want to learn! I’m in San Diego if you are anywhere near here.
Based on the $200 budget, my suggestion would be to find a used Taylor “Big Baby”. It is a great guitar that will stay in tune very well. They are on Craigslist around here for between $200-$260. Can’t go wrong with a Taylor.
Great to hear that about the Dodgers game. Same thing at the LA Kings game last Wednesday at Staples. Huge ovation for a Marine who was honored at the game. Gotta love the NHL. There are a couple of clowns out there, but for the most part hockey players and fans are very patriotic. GKG!
It is true that this place is a big mess. However, there are still lots of really good people here who are working their tails off to make a difference, and turn it around.
It took a long time for things to get this way, and it will take an even longer time to make it better. But I for one will not give up, and I will not lose hope. With God all things are possible.
