"Donald Trump's latest spat isn't about sport or patriotism, it's about race"

The LMSM is desperately trying to pound that square peg into the round hole.

IQ has nothing to do with it. Rather you have to properly “educate” someone to convince them to believe all this progressive twaddle. It why people like Bill Ayers went into educating teachers: fill up people’s minds with nonsense and they become your creatures no matter what their IQs. And if you can use race baiting to further the pollution of their educations ...well, what could be better for the left?

As somone recently pointed out: Shelia Jackson Lee has a degree from Yale.

For myself, my own recollections: I would point out that the very next day after 9/11 reporters found twits at Ivy League schools who were so desperately in need of cranial extraction procedures that they couldn’t say if what the terrorist had done was evil.

Do not imagine that these people are necessarily dumb, no, delusion, real and profound delusion, takes intelligence.

Frogs are too dumb to stay in proverbial frying pans, they can’t explain away discomfort from being boiled alive you see....

I’ve been listening to this BS for 50 years. Things were fine, then things got stirred up by Barry Sotero. Every day now it seems some prominent black person is whining about some perceived injustice or “microagression”.(They now have to make up words for their alleged plight. That’s how silly it has become.) I’ve tried to be sympathetic when the cause was legitimate, but more often now the cause is just made up crap. I am officially fed up with it. I agree with President Trump. All who knealt, or locked arms in solidarity are sons of bitches and should be fired. You blacks need to act like you have some sense and try to get along for once. “The Man” isn’t your problem. White racism isn’t your problem. Your culture, lead by the dumbest among you, is your problem. I didn’t want to post this, but I’m fed up. I’m done. Go ahead and do each other in.

Racism?

From the country that tried to wipe out its indigenous black population?

It is about race and patriotism and the fact that WAY too many blacks are very unpatriotic.

Number one black traitor is Barack Hussein Obama.

The ABC-Aus is their version of NPR. The people it employs are every bit as vapid.

I really doubt that the 10% decrease in TV audience is about race or that the 30+% opinion poll numbers that indicate a big part of the audience is not longer interested in the NFL is about race.

It is about core values and the culture war that we are engaged in. Trump was elected to be a lightning rod for peoples frustration over political correctness, the Deep State and culture wars.

I commend Jim Brown etc for speaking out against these petty selfish protests. The problem is, you can barely count on one hand black athletes speaking out against the protests.

Lol. The f***ing Australians. Lololol. There are almost no blacks in Australia. They have some of the most racist immigration policies you can find.

What ever it started out to be with Kaypernack, we’re turning it into military vs. BLM.

They can’t win this. I expect Trump knew it.

If it is about race, why have Jim Brown, George Foreman and Franco Harris all come out against the protests?

The leftists say that since they are not lockstep with them then they are not really black.
