#1. courts don't initiate prosecution
#2. Cops who commit crimes are in fact prosecuted(and convicted).
#3. Very very few cops murder and rape.
#4. I'm not convinced NFL players taking a knee are protesting any of the above, nor am I convinced they understand what I just posted or why.
White lives don't matter movement keeps going, liberal hatred has no limits
but the burdens of being a multimillionaire football player would not be at the top of my list.
The NFL player's message is "Cops need to stop committing murder, rape, and terrorism, and the courts need to prosecute cops who commit crimes.". This is the one and ONLY message the NFL players are sending. If you hear anything else, that's a problem with you listening to the message, not a problem with what they are saying.
I really can't dumb it down any more than that. If you still don't understand the message, then you are choosing not to understand it.
Kaepernick's first example of Police Brutality was that Cops receive their contracted salary while a use of force situation is being investigated, and they haven't been charged with any crime. What Injustice!
At the time Kaepernick was interviewed in late August 2016, a ("White-passing")Hispanic Cop named Jeronimo Yanez in Minnesota had just shot a Black Man with the Spanish surname of Castille, who didn't obey instructions, acted erratically, and said he had a firearm (which he did). Later, THC was found in his bloodstream. The cop was eventually cleared, much to the rage of Kaepernick and the Anti-American AltLeft radicals.
PS THC while driving = DWI. The perp also had his family in the car.
Everybody should be put on unpaid leave until their government employer clears them of not following policy or YOU HATE BLACKS!
You are pathetic Dan
It was about Trump being an idiot and saying a divisive thing. It was a direct response to Trump this past weekend. To say otherwise is disingenuous.
FortWayne saysYou are pathetic Dan
Coming from you that's a compliment. It's like being insulted by an active KKK member.
It is well within reason for an NFL player to continue the message that we must stop terrorism from cops by condemning a divisive idiot who is attempting to undermine that message.
You seriously think Trump is intelligent enough that his remarks were in an effort to undermine Kaepernick's protest?
Given how stupid a third of Americans are, it doesn't take much intelligence to undermine the truth. Case examples: Fox News and Breitbart.
What burns my ass is seeing baseball players in camo uniforms, as if they were an extension of the US military. What’s up with that? Is San Diego suddenly a theater of war? And why do US soldiers need to wear camo uniforms when shopping for eyeglasses? There used to be a distinction between battle dress and what you wore the rest of the time, even during a world war. And why on earth is it necessary to fly Air Force fighter jets over the stadium before the Super Bowl? Who authorizes the spend for that? Who are we trying to scare?

Of course, this new gale of ill-feeling stirred up by our intemperate president, the Golden Golem of Greatness, is driven by the oceanic currents of racial animus that are drowning the country more ruinously than the recent spate of hurricanes. The #Take the Knee campaign was already there, and getting hotter, even before Mr. Trump chimed in. At least he didn’t issue the usual sort of vapid nostrum about “diversity” and all of us getting along. In his blunt, blundering way, he may force the nation to clarify exactly what the beef is.
Surely it’s not about the woes of professional athletes. They are representing the grievances of a different realm in black America, perhaps the places they came from, the city ghettos or the rural backwaters of Dixieland, or maybe even boring black suburbs like Prince George County, Maryland. And the lingering question, to be equally blunt, is: how much is non-black America keeping black America down?
