Well, it's instructive to see that some people don't think that repeated police shootings of unarmed people is divisive, but kneeling in memorium to their unnecessary deaths is 'divisive.'


What leftists don't get, is that not everyone hates the police or buys into the lies spread my Marxists and their Black Lies Madder useful idiots / terrorists about the police

Are there bad cops? Yes. But there is bad everything in an imperfect world

Leftists USING propaganda about certain unfortunate incidents to divide the American people is what is correctly being viewed as the real divisiveness by thinking people

The media has destroyed any remaining credibility the way it went after the president. The mask has come off, no one who uses their mind buys their lies any longer

We see right through the shitstorm leftists continue to try to create, and president Trump is the figurehead for thinking people in the fight against the insanity

as if respecting the flag and the national anthem was somehow tacit approval of police brutality?

or that there aren't better (less divisive AND more affective) ways to address one's concerns?

"NFL Player on 'Why He Stands'"

quote:

Cincinnati Bengal Tyler Eifert respectfully disagrees with former San Francisco 49er quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s decision to kneel during the playing of the national anthem. In a thoughtful piece for Medium, the Bengals’s tight end begins by noting he jumped into this debate against his better judgment.

Then, he offered a simple, yet profound explanation for why he honors the anthem.

“I stand because I love my country.”

Eifert has other reasons, one being that some of his family members have proudly served in our armed forces.

As I stand for the national anthem, I don’t want there to be questions of why I am standing or if I will kneel. I want there to be a clear understanding of why I stand. I want there to be a clear understanding of why I respect our flag and why I love our country.

It's "sad" to see how divided we are even over a common practice of standing for the flag, he writes.

Kaepernick started kneeling last summer when he told the press he can’t respect the flag while law enforcement were supposedly targeting minorities. Several fellow players joined his protest.

In a moving gesture, Eifert explains that he will be honoring a military person by writing their name on his cleats for every game this season.

A bit more respectful than Kaepernick’s police pig socks don’t you think?

Eifert is also asking for support for the the K9s For Warriors charity to raise awareness about post traumatic stress disorder.

If more players behaved like Eifert, perhaps the NFL's ratings would fare better.

It's all about disrespecting the flag, the police, the military, the country...

And that the NFL is standing with them will translate into extremely bad luck for NFL stadium attendance and television ratings

There's the point. You call police shootings of unarmed blacks unfortunate incidents while black athletes are protesting unwarranted assaults.

If you wish to depoliticize this issue, take down the flag, stop playing the national anthem, and stop flying jets in formation over the stadium.

It isn't a symbol of unity if people don't agree that it is a symbol of unity.
And when it represents a nation that is capable of giving the world Donald Trump, the meaning definitely changes.

No, the problem is that patriotism was co-opted by out of touch morons like you and this guy:



Most people like to think they're better than that.

Except our President 'loved' it enough to be a draft dodger didn't he?
