The advantages that those chick players have been given are far and beyond the opportunities the majority of white adults of any sex and especially of white women that were born in Arkansas.

Lots of Arkansans have died in combat protecting that flag and that anthem and they never had anywhere near the opportunities given to them or their surviving family that those ingrates have been given by the people of this state.

They have a First Amendment right to do it.

Others have an equal right to dislike what they are doing or to boycott them.

Some in the SJW movement believe that since they have a right to engage in the activity they want to engage in then others are compelled to accept them but that simply is not the case.

Have a good night to those of you who realize how blessed we are to live in the USA.

Lord knows that one can't have more overarching concerns besides one's own situation. They certainly can't be, on one hand aware of their privilege and the rarified stage upon which they protest, while simultaneously be protesting the racial injustices that still exist in our nation?

No, they're clearly just selfishly concerned about their own plight... because if you're selfishly concerned about your own plight engaging in acts of protest that gain the ire of the rednecks and hillbillies in your fanbase is a real smart thing to do.

All that being said: I dislike this form of protest, but they have every right to do it. I also think that while Kapernick has created a backlash, it actually has contributed to continued discussion of racial profiling.

Anyone read the story in the NWA Times today about the guy who got convicted of endangering the lives of officers. He was hole up on pills in his room and officers had been called for him endangering himself via an overdose. The officers broke down the door to find him pointing a gun at them with a knife in his hand. Officers peacefully subdued him via taser, despite the guy continuing to point the gun at them (later found out to be one of those realistic looking pellet pistols) and then waving a knife at them while they tasered. He repeatedly tried to slash them.

How do you think this would have gone down if he'd been some black dude on the street?

Here is the article: LINK

Are you denying that we have rednecks and hillbillies in our fanbase? Many of my immediate relatives would prove you otherwise. I'm not saying that rednecks and hillbillies are the only ones who will get irate about their actions or that if you get irate about their actions that you're a redneck or a hillbilly, but there are certainly some rednecks and hillbillies who are going to freak the frick out about this and potentially want to harm these women.

You didn't say the rednecks and hillbillys in your fanbase. You said your redneck hillbilly fanbase, which would infer that the majority of the fanbase is made up of these people.

It can also imply other things. If I said your "homer fanbase" or your "intelligent fanbase" or your "diehard fanbase" would it mean that EVERYONE in that fanbase is all of those things? No, the phrasing can also refer to a segment within the fanbase. Sorry. I will amend the wording in my original post to be more clear, though.

Good for them. You gotta stand-up/kneel for what you believe in.

And just because i am being contrarian tonight and playing devil's advocate:

Kneeling never seemed that disrespectful to me. If you wanted to be disrespectful, you could moon the flag, or turn your back to it or grab your crotch or give it the finger. Kneeling, in some ways, seems almost MORE respectful than standing. Albeit, it may be intended to highlight the subservient role that blacks still find themselves at in America, but the gesture itself isn't particularly disrespectful.

Also: many of the people who complain about this are the same people who complain about safe spaces and PC and SJW and such. Perhaps they need a "safe space" where their ideas aren't challenged and people don't do things like kneel during our national anthem?

So how many times has this happened with a black person? Nobody knows because the national news only talks about ones that are shot by the police, and of all the people that are shot by police they only pimp the stories where the one killed is a black person.

Eh. It's their right to act like idiots and it's my right to think they're idiots. But it's still their right to act like idiots. No rules were broken. I don't respect anything about doing that, but firing a coach and kicking players off the team would be ridiculous. I'll continue to have the same view of women's basketball that I've always had and that's that I don't give a shite about it.
