Your snark should be embarrassing to you.

i am shameless.  If I were evil, I would kill millions.  Fortunately for all of us, I am not evil.  I just slept overnight at a Caligula Inn Express.

The NFL perhaps wants their own country.  Let them have Wake Island.  Then leave their privileged asses there.  Let them contemplate, what the Americans, outnumbered and without any hope of relief, did to fight the Japanese Navy and Marines.

As it is, the NFL is in the process of reversing their own position, because they realize this SJW shit is bad for business.

I just think they would like it if their kids weren't being gunned down by police in the playground or if their sons weren't being shot while sitting in a car or walking across the street or just running scared. Sounds reasonable to me. What good is all the hoopla, flags and fancy parades if it applies to everyone else but you?

War is peace.  Life is death.  Get over the American dream already.  If you don't like what police are doing ... don't wine, do something.  Go to Police Academy, make a funny cop spoof ...

And you embarrassing to most people.  The routine killing of people of color by police is horrible, wrong, and against everything I think about the rule of law.

You are SJW then?  You think that cops routinely, based on job, not color, go looking to kill Black teens?  You have KKK on the brain.  The cops know, the real thugs have guns.  If Trayvon had been a real thug, Zimmerman would have been jumped by a dozen other Bloods, all heavily armed.  Zimmerman's trial would have been unnecessary.  Tragedy happens, cops make mistakes.  So lets kill all the cops then?  There are little old White ladies gunned down by mistake by cops, so why don't we have LOWLM?

And because there's no situation that Asshole can't make worse, is everyone familiar with his threat to take away the NFL's tax breaks if they don't toe his personal line on "patriotism"?

*sigh*

I just can't in good conscience avoid using the word 'fascist' anymore.

Your right!  Kids shouldn't be gunned down at a playground regardless of whos doing the shooting.

We do have playground shootings and police are very aware of this.

QuoteOne reason for the lack of prosecution and subsequent conviction begins with the Supreme Court’s legal standard for use of lethal force. According to Graham v. Connor, the landmark 1989 case that established the standard, each “use of force must be judged from the perspective of a reasonable officer on the scene, rather than with the 20/20 vision of hindsight.” The ruling specifically cautions against judging police too harshly for split-second decisions made in “tense, uncertain and rapidly evolving” situations. All of this gives officers plenty of leeway to explain why their actions were legal.

It is the exact same issue as 'safe spaces' and 'micro-aggression', only in this particular job the systemic priority is on the safety of the state actor (police).  Any perceived threat justifies the use of extreme force, which is why juries all over the place, while following the judicial instruction, keep returning not guilty verdicts.

All these juries have been conditioned via many aspects of real life, work, school, trickle down to in their very homes, about not hurting anyones feelings, cant say "I like your hair/dress" because it may be perceived in a way unintended... 

So all an officer has to do is say "I felt threatened" and the jury, via real life conditioning and the defense attorney pounding the reality of the police [potential danger in every call], has no choice but return the not guilty verdict.

So the burden is upon the civilian to ensure that an officer cannot perceive a threat, a condition whos bar has been lowered by the SJW's activities in creating 'social justice'.  Which is ultimately why Kaepernick is attacking the wrong end of the issue.

There are times when you make vague sense.  This is not one of those times.

Free speech and free actions related to speech can be awkward.  But they don't count JUST when they agree with your views.  They also count when you don't like them.

That's funny mainly because out of all the sports in America, football is far-and-away the most utterly regressive and socially backwards there is.
