Good. There's nothing wrong with leaders of a community peacefully protesting police brutality and racism.
I don't generally disagree and really don't give a crap what the kid does.
But IMO it's not really a protest and it's kind of dumb. I think it's mostly just so they can feel better about themselves and pretend like they are doing something.
The reality is, it's not accomplishing anything, nor is it going to.

Shaft I'm curious what prompted you to drop this thread today? Relatively speaking this article is old and the topic was discussed previously a good bit in the recruiting thread when the article was published. I'm not trying to squash conversation, I think this is a good topic, just suprised it has kind of come up out the blue again. Anyway I've never been concerned about kneeling during the anthem, but I am interested to see if more college players began to do it now that there has been no real resolution in the NFL.
This was my first time reading this and hearing about it. I must've skipped over in the recruiting thread. I thought it would be of interest to the board because this concerns a recruit we are in pursuit.

I think the kneeling isn't about police brutality nor racism or anything of the sort. I really think it's a leftist effort to destroy football.

There are certainly other and better ways to go about it, but that's also the same exact thing that was told to MLK so :shrug:
