Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins had a message to deliver Wednesday after President Trump abruptly canceled the Super Bowl champions visit to the White House on Tuesday. But instead of reading a statement or taking reporters questions after practice, Jenkins, an outspoken civil right activist and member of the Players Coalition, held up a series of signs and shook his head in silence.
Reporters kept volleying questions at him anyway. Jenkins kept reaching for the next cue card.
He held up one sign that read, YOU ARENT LISTENING twice during the two-minute encounter.
Sheil Kapadia ✔ @SheilKapadia Instead of speaking, Malcolm Jenkins holds up signs at his locker to get his message across.
In 2018, 439 people shot and killed by police (thus far). In U.S. [population] 8% = African-American males. Shot by police 25% = African-American males, read one card.
ANY GIVEN NIGHT 500,000 SIT IN JAIL. CONVICTED? NO. TOO POOR? YES. #ENDCASHBAIL, read the next.
Malcolm Jenkins ✔ @MalcolmJenkins You Arent Listening!

Yeah it’s amazing how that works.
No Malcolm, you are the one that refuses to listen. If you did you would realize that your sign is not true..
This is all just part of the strategy to turn America into South Africa, both politically, and with a minority white population. What percentage of Caucasians make up immigration, refugees, and illegal border crossing? “We must cleanse the world of whiteness” is something that is alluded to and directly spoken in many circles.
No bail arrests? Now how in the %##^$((&^%$##$ do you get people to show up for court? I guess like with gun laws, only the lawful obey, the criminals laugh their way to another crime. Maybe they can kill or intimidate witnesses and skate off as pretty as you please.
Maybe these f***wads will wake up when the stadiums are half-empty and the TV ratings have cratered. Of course, the geniuses will blame that on racism!
“People in glass houses....”
“He held up one sign that read, YOU ARENT LISTENING twice during the two-minute encounter.”
I woulda held up a sign that said “YOU AREN’T TALKING”.
True, but they'd rather silence any mention of these obvious problems. Even Kanye has shut up about Chicago, apparently.
Did anyone ax him why 13% of the population causes over 50% of the violent crime and why that is the police’s fault?
In Jenkins’ own little ego-centric world, protesting the National Anthem demonstrates how noble and morally-superior he is - according to lots of polls, in the worlds a good majority of the population live in, such protests equal disrespect and contempt for the country, the flag, and the military - the people who aren’t listening are Jenkins and his ilk......
At first I found this was all so sad!! I grew up spending Sundays and Monday nights with my dad, screaming and cheering at the TV, jumping up and down together, etc. And I carried these great traditions into my own marriage and family, and I was just getting my grandkids into little yard scrimmages l, teaching them how to throw and catch a spiral during halftimes! Then Kaepernick came along, 49ers did nothing, others joined in, I felt sick and I left the NFL for good! It was SO HARD not to watch that year and I admit I read scores and saw highlights on Twitter. But Year 2 was easy! I didnt folllow draft, didnt care who was playing for which team...and didnt even peak at Super Bowl. I am done, and Im not sad at all! In fact Im much healthier as a result, drinking fewer beers, eating fewer chips and dips, getting more exercise and spending more time outside enjoying family! Our NFL traditions are relegated to memories of days gone by...
Can I still say Im boycotting the NFL if I am never going back?
It was hard for me too. I started watching in elementary school and it’s sad to see what’s happened to the NFL. But I’m used to not watching it now (it also helps that my team, the Redskins have been terrible for 25 years).
How about holding up a card about the percentage of people in the US SHOT by Black males?
Oh no! That wouldn’t be PC would it?
This may not be a bad thing. Beats having to support them in jail. There is a strong genetic link to violent criminal behavior.
OK, so there was a "meeting" scheduled on said subject (back in the 1990's, no less) that was canceled because of PC "objections". Sounds like pretty compelling proof of your theory—not.
I'm not Politically Correct in the least—but I'm also not someone who makes unproven assertions about race and presents them as fact—again, with no supporting evidence provided whatsoever.
A meeting that was canceled due to Political Correctness doesn't prove anything at all. Where is even a single scientific study (peer-reviewed, of course) which definitively proves—or even mildly supports—the validity of this whimsical racial theory of yours?
No need for you to add to the incessant chorus of race pimping. I see you had my response removed after I cited the behaviors that are genetically linked across species and variants. Do you have any comprehension of what s bell distribution curve means. What is the Stanford Binet IQ test measure? Regardless, like IQ, aggressive behavior has a genetic component too. Environmental influences are simply a piece of the puzzle.
