Yes, lets not ever address the elephant in the room.
Blacks killing other blacks by the bushel and “thug culture” worship.

I think thats true. I also think that they have totally forgotten that sports etc. are distractions. Theyre entertainment.Im living without the NFL. I would give up on the NBA but I already did that decades ago.

Is there ANY reporter or interviewer honest enough to ask ANY of these dweebs what the actual statistics of these shootings are? Or ask them if they (the dweeb) have ever undergone or even watched a training session to better understand being in these sorts of situations (police shootings)?
Police are humans - occasionally there will be mistakes, or there will be instances where training was poor, or even instances where maybe someone should not really be / have been a LEO. I’ve argued some of those on these threads. But, the statistics say this is NOT some sort of pervasive racism — if anything, the racism in shootings goes the other way.
Maybe the police unions should spend a few $$ and run some pertinent ads...

Overt desire often creates paradoxical effects. The more aggressively a thing is pursued, the more elusive the thing pursued becomes. In a way, with every stunt these sad individuals perform ... the less "black lives matter" has impact. Soon, by insulting the rest of America with this tripe, "black lives matter" won't matter at all.

Maybe the police should go work in a better town and let these balls of excrement flow down their own sewer!

The reason Black activists are taking the knee at games (attended overwhelmingly by white people)
is because they want white people to feel sorry for them and fix their problems. They still think WE own the plantation and it's OUR responsibility to take care of them.
They are WRONG. The black community needs to solve their own problems and take care of themselves. Democrats might see them as pets or charges but we don't. We see them as adults...
Black NFL players need to go kneel in front of the Democrat Party Office...

Exactly. All of these people are entertainers. Nothing more. Once the masses realize this and stop supporting them financially, they will go back to what there were, nothing but entertainers for our amusement/entertainment. Unfortunately, we have millions of people who support them and give them their platform.

In case you want to contact the Nets and let them know you won’t attend any games sung-in by drama queen Skye:

I don’t do any of those things, FB, pin interest, tweet, etc. but I’m sick of this grandstanding BS by our perpetually aggrieved class.

Moron. Just do not sing it. Give another the honor.

Well, I’m SURE entertainers and professional athletes are chosen for their high intellects.

As someone else pointed out, while black lives matter, RACIST black lives do not...

Someone needs to publish a running blacklist of these performers. None should perform the anthem again.
