    You can hear mine.

    He did indeed promote that theory... after his friend Hillary Clinton allowed her campaign to start it. I have seen no evidence that it was racially motivated as you claim - from either Mrs. Clinton or Mr. Trump.

    No he did not. The actual quote was that "they do not send us their best and their brightest... they send their people with all kinds of problems... their rapists... they bring those problems with them..."

    Of course there are Mexican rapists and murderers. Why would we want to invite those people into our country?

    He did. A stupid remark, but would you accuse him of racism had he made a comment similar about French-born judge if there was a dispute with France?

    Trump does not handle criticism well. But this is evidence of racism in your view??

    I believe he rejected Duke's endorsement.

    He did. Stupid and ignorant remark, not to mention legally impossible. That said, you do realize "Muslim" is not a race, correct?

    You have proof that these guys are white supremacists?

    You have proof that his comments included the neonazis? Or are you just speculating, errrm, hoping they did?

    "Outside their employment"? They don't work for us.

    It's also not for us to say what problems exist in their communities, unless we live in them. Do you live in a black community? I don't. I won't tell anyone what to think. I live in America, thank goodness - not communist China where people are expected to be subservient to the state.

    A TRUE NFL Team Owner would have marched down to the Field with Security
    and carted his ass off the Field....

    Now you have a whole League full of overpaid San Quentin Prison Yard Thugs
    disrespecting the very platform that enables there once profitable sport.

    As I've stated in the past, the only way to stop this is to purge the Cowardice out
    of the NFL.....

    If the intention was to disrespect fallen countrymen I'd think they could do much better than kneeling. Why can't you take them at their word?

    My feelings aren't hurt. I just think they should be fired and the NFL should be closed as consequences for their actions at work and the fact that the billionaire owners took tax money to build their stadiums. Good thing I'm not their judge and jury.

    Edit: Knowing that, what gives them the right to speak for those who are suffering in the inner cities and are truly being discriminated against and some shot and killed?

    Something wrong with this picture. I guess they are accepted due to skin color and not their ability to get things done or their ability to represent those who follow and believe in them? ee.

    Yes, they could verbalize their disgust for their fellow countrymen who were captured in the line of duty while defending our honor and spent time as POWs. Then they'd be like President Trump and all of these outraged Trump supporters would love them.

    Did you happen to pay attention to when he took out a full page Op Ed calling for the death penalty for the wrongly accused central park 5? Or when his company settled an anti-discrimination lawsuit with the DOJ?

    I give it five minutes... until someone on this board calls you a racist... for staying facts. Or if they don't post it, you know they are thinking it.

    Because people recognized long before the protests started that they can get a better viewpoint of more games without paying several hundred dollars by staying at home?

    That's a great point. Where was all the outrage when Trump was disrespecting McCain, a POW survivor? Those were despicable, disgusting remarks.

    “He’s not a war hero,” said Trump. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” -Donald Trump (who skated out of any service to our country at all!!)

    Precisely. These "patriots" have no issue with our President denigrating POWs, but they are losing their marbles about some football players kneeling quietly during the national anthem. What is that? Hypocrisy? Trump love? I can't figure it out.

    There's a thread for poor examples of poetry. Advertising here won't help your rep. hahaha

    I look a bit Chinese and have been teased about it. Does that seem to follow or does it not count because I'm European descent? Does your personal harassment make me in the minority or do you do this to most who say something you don't agree with?

    Grow up and quit blaming your problems on everyone else. Take responsibility for your part and then take the rest to courts in a respectful and legal manner. You'll get more sympathy. That's what you want, right?

    The topic of this thread is:
    Unlike the President, most Americans know NFL kneelers aren't protesting the flag.

    Not sure what you are going on about.


    Are you saying NFL protesters are protesting the flag...yes or no, please?

    Umm wow. The references are to WW2 era Germany (and of course some Pink Floyd lyric). Was it too subtle?

    I don't follow you. And, I don't really care to try. I'm tired of being left behind after helping everyone else at my expense. I have no more to give.

    Great point.

    What Trump said about McCain was HORRIFIC about a veteran. What the NFL players are doing is at most, disrespectful of veterans (though I do not think it is).

    The truth is that Trumpbots let their Dear Leader say anything he wants and they look the other way if they don't agree with it.

    But as soon as ANYONE ELSE but Trump does it...they freak.

    It's hypocrisy...pure and simple. Or they are just stupid/gullible and buy ANYTHING he says...COMPLETELY.

    Pathetic.

    And you have no problem denigrating the President of the United States with bs pop shots daily. Irony at it's fines.
