My apologies if the picture wasn't worth a thousands words. So please allow me to further explain this Tongue-n-cheek dig at the selective outrage of Athlete taking a knee. Important: "In MY OPINION" the "Header Text" listed in RED within the picture, depicts what is commonly called "Unacceptable" and "Offencive" to some people. In short, I agree with each and every "picture and it's accompanying" explanation. Yet ... "Header Text" listed in Not-Listed in RED, show a less "aggressive" and more palatable response for some people. Please except my apologies for not clarifying before and I hope this Thread is more in line, acceptable, respectful and palatable for debate. Hopefully there's enough context for debate now.

This is pretty basic: There is a clear double-standard here in that these people think that because they're black, they can while they're at work and on the clock getting paid make political statements. If I did that at ANY job I ever worked at, I'd have gotten canned on the spot.
Not all of the NFL players who have protested are black. Not all of the black NFL players have protested. The only double standard here is your own.
Blacks are the ones wailing crying racism that they're being told to not use their place of employment as a soap box. Where are the loud whites wailing? So please tell us why these people are singularly allowed to use their job as a political soapbox. Yes, that is in fact a double standard.
I figured since NFL training camp starts, next month, then I had better come get this thread's link and start dropping it on NFL themed webpages and forums. Let's remind people of racist things which have yet to change,
