Don't bring personal issues into the NFL is all he was trying to say and I for one believe if you want to state your political beliefs then do it on another platform concentrate on football not on political issues you don't get paid to state your political beliefs on the field keep it at home plain and simple .

Don't forget those "thugs" are often "coached" by wealthy, old, fat white guys..

Anybody with half a brain knows a policeman is not going to shoot a guy with his HANDS UP in the middle of a crowded street with witnesses all around.
These Rams players showed they WANT to believe it though. What does that say about them?

That is what has always bothered me about the 'witness statements' that MB was surrendering. The cop in question would have to have been completely insane, or a totally out of control rabid racist, to shoot down a civilian (of any color) in the middle of the street in broad daylight. Something had to have happened to make Wilson fearful enough to use his weapon. No body in their right mind would think they could execute/murder somebody like that and get away with it, not even a cop.

Why would that be so unbelievable?

The ny cop choked a guy to death in full view of a half-dozen other officers & at least one camera shooting video.

I'm talking about intentional murder, which is what the protesters in Missouri think happened to Brown. The case in NY appears to be unintentional/reckless homicide. Two different things IMO.
For the record, I think the NY cop should have charged in that death. Justice was not served in that case.

For the record, wrapping your arm around someone's neck and choking them until they're dead, can only be "intentional".

An "accident" is when someone steps in front of a moving car.

Blacks don't understand the greater part of what you suggest. They are but pawns on a big liberal chessboard being moved about by the MSM. Young white kids are but useful idiots and tools.

Watch for the dumb and vacant looks in the protesters' faces if further proof is needed.

Too bad they can't do something else with the energy they expend impeding the lives of other people.
