Incorrect because the truth says otherwise. We can read the comments from the filthy left who care not that they have Christians among them.
Yet you have no problem forcing people in the private sector to accept same sex marriage. Yea there's nothing hypocritical about that.

No one here is saying it's excusable but you. It's not about race it's about unchecked tyranny which you support when you agree with the "intentions". Rights don't matter.

I don't think I will get anywhere with someone pretending to represent Christian views calling others the "filthy left". You practice a different Christianity than I do.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Many, if not all, of the most vocal and upfront "Christians" on this forum are also many of the most spiteful, hateful people who post here. I've long observed that so many people use their "faith" as a security blanket to hate others who are different.

I am missing something because from my point of view those whole thing from kneeling and the lawsuit did nothing to change anything. The people who don't like cops still don't and those who support them still do. In fact I would assume most Americans don't even understand why the players were kneeling. It was a poorly designed protest in the first place which did not thing to curtail police shootings or anyone's perception of them.

A trial would have opened up a lot of NFL dirty laundry now it can be swept under the rug. A real crusader for change would not have taken the easy payday. Kaep can now cash in on paid speeches, write a book and get his Nike check.

Similar to “faux” facts the alt-right supports...

I'm not a Christian. Make something else up. (granted I don't need to tell you that. It's like it's second nature for you.)

It would have exposed the collusion as that is all that would have been presented. There is no need for a trial to understand what went on.

Kaep is a better QB than Josh Johnson. He was far less disruptive than Josh Gordon to the team. Gordon doesn't even bothering to show up and he still has a job.

Your made up post is hateful. Anything to deflect from discussing the truth.

Josh Gordon does not have a job. When he was playing he was head and shoulders better than Kap. He has far greater value. That is why he was picked up. Just like Reuben Foster does. You ignored that also.

Make something else up.
