Back in the 1950s and 60s when real racist behavior was not uncommon, black athletes still showed respect for country and flag. Now that true racism is pretty much limited to a few morons, some of whom profess to be conservative but who we reject, we see much more obnoxious behavior from many of them. The lies of systemic racism (proven false by eight years of Obama; it took a lot of white votes to elect him) and police hunting and killing innocent blacks (you get shot for BEHAVIOR, not for your color; if I did what they do I’d be shot too) are sparking the revolt. The media neglects to mention that George Floyd had a lethal dose of fentanyl in his system when he died, and that he had been safely restrained in the back seat of a police car prior to being removed at his own request because he said he could not breathe. Truthful reporting would go a long way towards correcting these misconceptions.

I’ll get down off of the soap box now.

And I will not be watching a game that plays another anthem other than America’s National Anthem. If they are playing a black anthem then they had better play an Asian anthem and a Native American anthem and a Hispanic anthem and a Polish anthem and a ukranium anthem a German anthem an English anthem and all the other nationalities that have come to this country. Right now as far as I am concerned BLM is nothing but a terrorist group.

I think if the people who kneel would take the time to see how the National Anthem came to be by patriots putting themselves in harms way that there lould be less kneeling. Just Google it.

PATHETIC millionaires.

I understand they have a cause and a right.

But they have the money to use a different platform.

Younger people watch those games and are influenced.

Let alone they are doing it on company time.

Bringing nationalism with prayer, you should expect more than a game.

Speaking of nationalism, how did White Nationalist become a slur? Break it down: White, by accident of birth, over which I have no control; Nationalist, a lover of America and her founding principles- America first. Why would anyone object to that?

I welcome the company of Nationalists who are other than white as well. We should all be on the same team!

It’s a perversion of the term by the left. It’s a favorite pastime of theirs.
