Wouldn't be the first time I did that
Its an opinion board, every one has one... Id bet half of the ones in the politics room havent voted in 30 years.... But they like sound off...Either way... I think football has bigger problems with the nature of the sport, head injuries.. To me their apology was worthless...Their bigger problem is the longevity of their players after the NFL, due to head injuries and everything else.. They simply have to find a solution... I dont care for getting on the knee and personally I respect the flag and what it stands for...Its the people in the country that are the problem , .not the flag and not the cops

Yeah....riiiiight.
You're not racist whatsoever....not even close.

You're also kind of emotionally unbalanced and a walking talking contradiction.

word to the not-wise: going around sucking off black guys all your life doesn't mean you and only you aren't racist. so yeah, wipe your chin off and stand up, have some self-respect and just treat others with dignity and respect, assuming they've earned to be treated as such.

OK, so back to you, you said you couldn't possibly be racist because of your nonwhite dad, but of course you can be. Is there nothing about these grievances that make sense to you?

i fully admit that you don't necessarily have to be Caucasian to be an actual racist, it was a tongue-in-cheek comment, but sadly, it's a comment rooted in resentment because of the ridiculous perceptions being laid out by the extreme on the left. all i'm saying, is that i've grown tired of the far left's domination of groupthink with regards to how everything is characterized through this "is it racist?? OMG i think i just saw something racist against a minority!" lens, and how the majority of white people apparently perpetuate this culture that rests upon some phony pillar of racism that is cause for woe to all others who don't have white skin; it's nauseating, and it seems like it's only becoming more ingrained into the collective subconscious with each passing day. having said all that, yes, of course blacks in this country have legitimate gripes, there are problems that DO need to be attended to, i honestly don't know what the answer is, but i do know that it starts with addressing the differences in values, not races.

You're not only wrong on all of that once again, but you keep going there for some reason...I can only wonder why.
Maybe you, like your clueless leader, prefers to lie and project as a way of deflecting +/or accepting the truth??

• You support trump.
• He's demented and is a proven racist.
• That means you're supporting a demented racist.
• Essentially meaning you're also demented and very likely a racist as well.

OK well you seem more relaxed now. Why are you so sure it's all phony 'virtue signaling'? I mean, yes, some of it is surely Goodell doing his job of keeping his league running smoothly, but isn't it interesting how he's doing this now, vs 4 years ago?

Maybe people are starting to think about this issue differently. I think the Floyd killing is a turning point, we might finally get somewhere on this.
Is the issue police brutality? Then no we wont. Police get inserted into crazy situations and sometimes make bad mistakes. Sometimes those are intentional, as we seem to have witnessed with Floyd.

If we get more handshakes between police officers and the citizens they serve it will be a positive, but that only lasts until we get the bad situation involving a cop and a detainee. Every effort goes to waste after that. IMO this is a likely scenerio.

This cop had a history of excessive force. There has to be a way to get rid of bad cops

Then it was misused here. This cop was a bully. That is ok, but when the guy was cuffed, he needed to back off. He didnt. I am glad he is charged.

If he had honest evals and he was an excessive force kind of guy, they should have removed him from those situations. If they did, freddy would be in jail instead of 6 feet under and this guy would be pushing paper instead of sitting in jail.

Everyone is fucked in this situation.

I would hope you know he's a friend before you use it. And maybe it's not so great to use at all.
Being a minority in a black community and having a car full of brothers rolling up on you. Seeing them all jumping out of the car for no good reason other than not being black. Sorry, but I'm going to be beat down for nothing!!!
