No one will even LOOK at the issue when you spit on the flag. Symbols are important, especially in the United States. It's what we stand for in unity for a common goal. When you break that unity you are doing much more than lowering yourself two feet. The fact that this needs to be explained to hundreds of thousands of social justice warriors is extremely troubling for the future of our country
Kneeling is not, nor has it ever been disrespectful.
What exactly is wrong with wanting the police held accountable when they do wrong? Why do we make excuses for them when they violate our civil rights?
Any opinion on what is going on in Baltimore with their police.force?
If an officer is caught planting evidence, should that not bring charges and a termination?
Baltimore? First off you need to stop watching The Wire because FYI that's a fictional television series. Secondly it's just as many black cops as white cops, including the ones that roughed up the perp in the police transport.
Incidents of civil rights being violated are few and far between. Corrupt police departments like Fergusson need to be disbanded and have been. Any cop who is proven to plant evidence is subject to termination in all PD's.
Police should be held accountable, the vast majority are.
But we also need to look at the other side, the population needs to understand COMPLIANCE. When stopped and given an order by a police officer, you need to comply. That goes for black, white, yellow, brown, everybody. When you don't follow police orders bad things are guaranteed to happen
First, before calling me ignorant check your punctuation. Second of all what makes a professional football game a good place for a racial protest?
What makes an NFL game a good place to protest? Black men with a modicum of money and influence work there and they have a large audience watching what they're doing. As we see, this has been one of the most effective protests of the entire BLM movement.
What made you look ignorant wasn't your use of the language but your use of stale rhetorical tricks. In this case a big fat red herring.

I didn't call you names. You make yourself look even more ignorant by asking a question that has been addressed countless times right here in this thread.

People talk about Black cops like they can't be part of the problem. Black cops can be just as bad as white cops or Latino cops.
