Native American didn't create $hiat that you are using today and benefit today. Funny, from a guy that uses a computer and the internet to talk cr@p about the U.S. and the people that built the roads, schools, hospitals, homes, jobs, transportation and cities and towns that you benefit today.

The 1,000 tribes living here never fought, raped, enslaved, killed, conquered for land or resources or never created empires in the Americas. That idea only came from a European that blew his brains out. Yeah, I'm now a fascist. Yeah, thanks for the laugh. History isn't for you.
the tribes here way before the Europeans arrive here had genocide of wars against each other!!

When liberals whine about America, just show them the Afghans falling off planes and the Hatians being whipped by Biden’s border patrol agents on an open border just for the luxury to live here.

Seems to me more than half the posts to this and similar forums lean towards “ trash talking the nation”, no?

It's funny how liberals think the Indians were simply victims. They were slave holders, they took land from other tribes, they killed and fought wars with other tribes over territories, and they migrated to North America just like the Europeans did in search of a better place to live.

They just didn't figure out technology as quickly so they lost. Guilty modern liberals are uncomfortable by that I guess, but I don't see any of them giving up their "stolen" property to an Indian today.

Protesting against things is in the American DNA.
You may not agree with the tactics used or would you prefer we be like China or North Korea who don't allow Civil dissent?

It doesn't really work that way, kneeling brings awareness - awareness brings policy changes.

Dems constantly show what utter hypocrites they are!
That's between the employer and employee, no one else. I know that you don't like it, but that's the way it is.

We're ALL aware at this point. They could have, and in my opinion, should have gone about it in a different way.

This is not effective, and if it were, you would have been able to point to some changes that came as a result of players taking a knee. Changes came about due to incidents with George Floyd, not because some players didn't stand during the National Anthem.
