Colin Kaepernick Is Righter Than You Know

[mrbkkt1]

That's not true though.

it's a lot harder to be "racist" when you aren't the majority. I see it first hand everyday. I talk to military people all the time. One of the best litmus tests for how people are treated here, since they stay for 3 years and go. White people in general don't have as favorable a view of here. Black enlisted men have had really positive reviews of here. I don't ever recall any incident of a black person being shot by a policeman. And this is a major metropolitan area with an international airport.


But this is beyond the point. I think the best way to deal with racism is to look at places throughout the world and see what works. Don't forget, even though change can happen overnight, perceptions don't. I can't expect any black person who has experienced being oppressed for 25 years of his life to suddenly embrace a white culture at the so called end of an oppression anymore than a white person (or specifically police officer) to stop seeing a black person with the prejudice that he better have his gun drawn. I've honestly historically called out the cops here in a lot of stuff, but racism isn't one of them. I just wish the rest of the country could be like this.

The culture needs to change, and like it or not, people like kap, standing up is what will start the change, whether we like it or not.

cool pic. share this on fb, and see the jimmies rustle.

the gun epidemic is analogous to this as well. limit access to guns, you get hateful rhetoric, and insensitive pundits who could care less about the dead, and cry foul with constitutional rights.

but toddlers in school can get shot in the face and worshipers get massacred en masse (with legally purchased weapons), and what do you get?

country is backwards in more ways than one.

It's funny, dudes get their posts deleted and banned from certain threads. Yet clowns are allowed to troll and bait black race threads all day, every day.

Recently, another individual decided to join the cause: U.S. Navy Intelligence Specialist 2nd Class Janaye Ervin.

Ervin explained her actions in a Facebook post that is now going viral.

"On Sept. 19, 2016, while in uniform, I made the conscious decision to not stand for the Star Spangled Banner because I feel like a hypocrite, singing about "land of the free" when, I know that only applies to some Americans," Ervin wrote.

Wow too real

 

[stay lurkin]

White people like to do this thing where, where they wait until a black person says something they agree with then they use him/her as a mold that ALL black people should replicate.

It is super weird. It is almost like they believe that blacks can't say ignorant **** about black people. Which is strange because we are all humans.

And there is no such thing as a black ambassador just like there is no such thing as a white one.

Y'all need to stop playin'

They used guns and artillery to get us over here. So, this is not shocking. It's a part of white conditioning. Without their guns, they would not have succeeded in their conquests. Again, this is embedded in their bloodlines. No guns = leveled playing field. With guns = conquered

Came back to see if everyone is throwing shade at lebron like they do at Cam for his " all lives matter" comments I just watched on worldstar.
His words, as coached, showed support to both sides, safely, with his pocket book in mind, like you all accuse cam of doing.
We burning bron jerseys again or are we hating cam for reasons we aint admitting?

You obviously fishing for attention so here's some, **** your intellectually dishonest bull **** you're trying to kick above.

 

[paulwest1985]

I been a bron hater and will continue to be a bron hater. I Respet alot of the things he's doing for the kids by sending them to college. But I get it, he has endorsements to protect. So he can't throw his support behind Kap

What was in the video pmatic posted? It's since been deleted.

'I agree with Colin but I'm not gonna kneel because it's too controversial and I don't want them problems'. Basically the same thing steph said

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Lebron's explanation is waaaaayyy different than that mess Cam was saying. Cam was on that "well what about black on black crime" talk. Lebron still shoulda went harder cuz this is a black and white thing.

once he determined who he was ... that should have been the end of it ... 

 

[sonoftony]

LeBron is not gonna risk losing that endorsement but I personally think Nike wouldn't cut ties with him if he did kneel.

This, I wish LeBron would've supported Colin more but he has a track record of speaking up and out about social issues. From Trayvon Martin to Donald Sterling he has a track record. SCAM is a tap dancing fool that tries to diminish the issues about race to appeal to an audience that already doesn't like him.

Nah, he signed a lifetime contract with them. And he makes Nike too much money. There's isn't another basketball star bigger than Lebron. If nike decides to terminate his contract they will fade off into obscurity and Addidas and Reebok will take their place

 

[jjs07]

Lebron IS Nike. As long as he's not getting arrested, he can do whatever he wants with how he chooses to protest.

Different situation than Cam Newton, IMO.

I believe it doesn't matter how we protest white people will get defensive and show their ignorance Kaep kneeling to me is the new wave before that they had a problem with the hoodies and the I can't breath T-shirts...kaep is doing the most peaceful protest and they tried to undermine kaep position using soilders to pressure him to stand and control the narrative but we got whole teams protest now standing just like how they wanted. I'm just curious to see how white people and raycoons will deflect the whole point of Kaep movement hope he never stands

 

[titanium tea]

Bron literally said " all lives matter ".  

People just dont want to own up for the actual things they dislike cam for.

 

[friscostylez]

no problem with what bron said

So, what are you getting at? Are you focused on injustice or making a point? I am confused.

He invaded their privacy and. Forced something down their throats. That is what he did.
