Seems like the only people angry are the snowflakes who get offended by a silent, peaceful protest.
Really? Please explain the $600k spend when Ben Shapiro spoke at Berkeley?
What exactly are the players protesting when they are taking the knee? Please explain.
Thanks
I can't explain anything with Ben Shapiro. I don't think that has anything to do with players kneeling.
The players are protesting the injustice of police shootings.
What injustice precisely? The made up Michael Brown case injustice? If you were to poll all the players do you think they could give you facts about what really happened there?
You said only snowflakes protest. Ben Shapiro is a peaceful speaker. Why protest him to such a degree that a university has to spend $600k in police protection? Could it be because the left are violent?
I actually don't have a problem with players taking the knee if they would explain how protesting the flag and the US soldiers equates to police shootings.
I didn't say only snowflakes protest. I said only snowflakes are angry about the players kneeling. They aren't protesting US soldiers.
Precisely?
John Crawford
Tamir Rice
Freddie Gray
Laquan McDonald
Philando Castile
Terence Crutchner
To name a few.
Of course there are bad police officers. But again how is protesting the flag protesting bad police officers? Also bad police officers shoot white people as well:
According to
data compiled by
The Washington Post, 50 percent of the victims of fatal police shootings were white, while 26 percent were black. The majority of these victims had a gun or "were armed or otherwise threatening the officer with potentially lethal force," according to Mac Donald in a
speech at Hillsdale College.
Some may argue that these statistics are evidence of racist treatment toward blacks, since whites consist of 62 percent of the population and blacks make up 13 percent of the population. But as Mac Donald
writes in
The Wall Street Journal, 2009 statistics from the Bureau of Justice Statistics reveal that blacks were charged with 62 percent of robberies, 57 percent of murders and 45 percent of assaults in the 75 biggest counties in the country, despite only comprising roughly 15 percent of the population in these counties.
