    Only idiots believe Trump's Tweets are golden drops falling out of his ass.

    Obviously you do care with this comment "tRUMP and tRUMPers are not" and other comments on the topic.

    Sad but true. The tactic is used by both sides, but the far Left excels at using dividing Americans to their advantage.

    Nowhere near as many as the blacks who are being murdered by blacks in our cities, everyday.

    But, since no "Race Card Option" available for that, the hypocrites have nothing to say about it.

    I didn't see them on Fox, I saw them on CNN. Now what are you thinking? Is your head imploding? Will you backpedal?....or will you try to find another reason to divide us?

    Agreed. A sad fact all Democrats and LWers want Americans to not recognize.

    The #1 cause of death for black males aged 15-34 is homicide, over 2200 per year. That is the true tragedy of America. The second tragedy is that the Democrats, who claim to support minorities, don't give a flying pigfuck about those deaths. They'd rather focus on the police, the military and banning guns for all Americans.

    You didnt have to say it

    Free speech only means government cant punish people for their political beliefs

    And in the case of the black players government did nor shut them up

    But I have as much right to speak out against them

    When some of the team members declined the invite, he made it about disrespect for the USA.

    F Trump and his cheap ilk.

    Funny, it seems to me that black community crime is a big issue in those communities. Course you wouldn't be caught dead in one, so how the hell would you know.

    What skewed anecdotal evidence are you talking about?

    Are you saying that there is not an inordinate number of UNARMED citizens being gunned down by police?

    BTW, you might want to look up what anecdotal evidence actually means. Crime stats are not anecdotal.

    For instance, I notice that many anti-immigrants use some anecdotal story of an illegal committing a crime to claim as trump does that these illegals are murders, rapists and drug dealers. But the actual statisical evidence demonstrates that the average crime rate amongst illegals is LOWER than for citizens. But he is uniting america, ain't he?

    Thank you for the clarification.

    But, I disagree with what you purport the national stats to show.

    https://news.vice.com/en_ca/article/xwvv3a/shot-by-cops

    BLACK PEOPLE WERE SHOT MORE OFTEN AND AT HIGHER RATES THAN PEOPLE OF ANY OTHER RACE. Police shot at least 1,670 black people from 2010 through 2016, 55 percent of the total and more than double the share of the black population in these communities. That’s a 28 percent higher rate than what the Washington Post found for fatal shootings in the same communities.

    Black subjects shot by police were more likely to be shot during incidents that began with routine traffic or pedestrian stops. They were more likely than whites to be armed with a gun but less likely to be armed with a weapon overall.

    I don't care what the NFL has as a policy. And you post to me, was what the NFL does to politicize or not politicize the Anthem.

    What tRUMP or tRUMPers say is irrelevant overall. Just shows their racist tone and not part of the bosses policy IE, the NFL.

    Speak out against them all you want. Dislike what they do all you want.
    But don't try and shut them down.

    I am not the government

    No law has been passed by me preventing the black players from insulting my country

    Just the indignant reaction of millions of Americans to the stupidity of the black players

    Which appears to be working

    Dude, throwing the race card is uncalled for simply because Trump didn't want to be embarrassed with less than 25% of the Eagles showing up. However, since that's a common tactic of the far Left, it's not unexpected. This is about politicizing sports, not your homophobic claim "tRUMP or tRUMPers" are racists.

    Is that why the NFL draft this year was the highest rated in history (before the rule too btw), and cities are falling over themselves trying to have the right to host the event?
