Blacks put their blackness first. Al Sharpton , Jesse Jackson has nothing good to say about race relations. Ever hear a positive word about race relations. NO.. and it will continue ..
No, libs put their liberalism first, this has nothing to do with race. Liberal progressive politics trumps race, religion, gender, and everything else.
The feminists never defended Sarah Palin against her misogynistic attackers, hell, the feminists piled on with them to insult and ridicule her.
The NAACP, is the National Association for the Advancement of Liberal Colored People. Everything is liberal politics first.
Did they come to watch players stand during the National Anthem?
The hypocrisy is great.
"We didn't come to watch these players make a political statement. They damn well better stand for the National Anthem"

It's like buying a cup of coffee, and the employee there decided to write BLM on your cup, or the dollar bill for your change. You did not pay for the coffee so this SJW could use his job as an opportunity for him to play activist.
It's not really like that.
It's like buying a cup of coffee and the employee not wearing a flag lapel pin instead of wearing a flag lapel pin.
A key plank of the conservative platform has always been that government should be small and it should stay out of the affairs of private business. With that in mind it is puzzling that Trump and his supporters are using the power of the federal government to interfere, harass and cajole a private sports league (the NFL) over their pre-game ceremonies. What player do or don't do is between them and their employers, right?
It strikes me as very hypocritical. The same goes for states rights: in a number of states both the voters and the free market have declared they want legal pot, but the federal government, especially Sessions, are refusing to condone it. So much for freedom!
Trump is using the power of the federal bully pulpit to harass and bully private business. And conservatives support that?
Conservatives say they cherish freedom and the free market -- but only in ways they agree with.
Terrible analogy to use writing BLM on something and giving it to you vs being silent and not standing. How kneeling is offensive to anyone is beyond me especially given peaceful protest is a right that our military fighting for
The military fights for the right of the KKK to peacefully assemble. Are you going to tell us how much you admire the KKK?

Why not?
Writing BLM is silent. The ink and the letters denigrate the cup, just as those kneeling denigrates the anthem. Both writing BLM and taking a knee are being used to promote the agenda of the SJW.
Or are you trying to pick apart an analogy for not being perfect, because analogies are not supposed to be a perfect fit.
When the Dallas Cowboys wanted to wear a decal to commemorate the death of Dallas police officers murdered by that sniper, the NFL said no.
What is the NFL thinking?
The team I like, and watch, the Texans, all stood for the anthem as they have every season for nearly a decade. I'll continue watching them. The moment any of them take a knee, I'm done with the NFL.

I must have missed where Trump sent in the army to make the players stand. Do you have a link to that?

I didn't say I admired anyone so you fail in asking me about the KKK. They have the right to peaceful protest
