these men have picked a side and go with whatever propaganda is associated with that side. They think they are the opposite of an SJW when really they are opposite sides of the same coin. Which is something that also tends to apply to 'SJWs'.

Britt just got $15 million in guaranteed money. He doesn't care what anyone thinks of him.

Carry on.

I don't care what any of these athletes think politically in the major pro sports. To pretend any of these successful pro athletes share any life experiences in common with the average working American is just silly.

I guarantee you that more then one of the 100's of NFL black players have been pulled over aka driving while black. Hell they all grew up before they were famous and rich.

I don't care personally. I have been pulled over as a teenager for just being a HS teenager after 12am growing up. Spare me all these sob stories

I had to do 8 hard years in the Army. Used those benefits to finish my degree and have a stable middle class life.

I'm sorry. These athletes in the pro ranks are so detached from reality that it's laughable when they try to preach.

I'm not saying there are not issues but these pampered clowns are a bad choice to preach to those that have actually struggled for what they have.

I'm so sick of this racist agenda that liberals present which is that whites are evil and there's institutional racism.


Ahhhhhh, there's that extremism. Well done my friend.

You're right man. I'll join your social injustice cause any day.

I don't understand and get the issue but holy shite dude. At least you don't mask your intolerance. Of course there was a time when people said blacks were 5/7 of a human and gays had a mental illness too.

To me that is the bigger problem and the bigger issue. You shouldn't have been unless you did something wrong. We should feel safe in our freedom of movement and that it won't be infringed on unless we do something wrong. But that applies to all races and all genders and all people.

I don't disagree with any of that but I don't get why others (not you kilo) let pro players get so under their skin.

I agree buddy. We live in an imperfect union. I would take our imperfections and flaws over what's out there around the world.

I don't fault people for trying to affect change but what's going on now is nonsensical and anti American.

Sitting for an anthem and a flag that affords you the opportunities to do just what you want and feel?

That's anti everything we hold dear as Americans no matter race creed or sex.

I tell you this much...burn a flag in front of me an there will be he'll to pay. Sit or dishonor our national anthem and I will say something.

When that flag and our constitution isn't a uniting blanket for us all to express ideals and opinions we are in trouble.

No doubt.

I don't know if I'm that hard on it. I do think that it is ineffective if truly looking to effectuate change. I suspect though for every one loud mouth, violent protestor, there are 1000's that aren't as radical and doing work quietly behind the scenes. Just like for every 1 loud mouthed, violent white nationalist, there are 1000's on that side of the coin that aren't as radical and doing work quietly behind the scenes.

That flag gives him every right to do exactly that. Of course, it also gives us the right to disagree and think less of him for doing so. No sides are wrong there IMO.

And every right to do so. Well, short of assaulting someone, but if you're willing to pay that price, so be it. Some feel that their cause is important enough that they are willing to go to jail for it. I get that too.

"That flag", doesn't bestow any rights. It is a symbol of our freedom. They should go burn the Constitution..wait...

I'm not sure folks are going to like where this is headed. There are quite a few reasonable people like me that have had enough.

So because I have a different viewpoint than you and the facts regarding black vs white violence and police violence supports my argument rather than yours so I'm extremist? Gotcha.

And yes, having surgery to remove your ball sack and get a vagina put in is a mental illness. I can guarantee you'd never date or have sex with a tranny.

This thread shouldn't even be in this section and should have been moved or deleted in the first place.

Justin britt is literally trying to reach out to people. He's not sitting for the anthem; he's letting his teammates know he is listening. Not necessarily agreeing but listening. We all could do that better.

I just said this thread shouldn't be in this section or deleted completely. If someone responds to my post calling me an extremist then I'm going to respond.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with what Britt is doing and absolutely nothing wrong with kneeling for the national anthem. I really don't care. I just wish ESPN in particular would keep politics out of sports because it makes people on both sides, including myself like I've done in this thread (somewhat regrettably) go on the attack when we don't agree with others opinions.

When I turn on a sports game or visit a sports site I don't want the top headline or any headline pushing politics in one way or another.

When are you going to make your next factual thread that doesn't involve Kentucky but still triggers Kentucky fans?
