They should tell the players, "Politics will be around long after your football careers, play ball and protest on your own time."

Hmmm, doesn't seem to be too many responses on actual facts of why they are protesting. Sorry to quote myself, but was just wondering if anyone in support of Kaps position could clarify... other than that it is his right. It is also his right to eat his own feces, which makes about as much sense as his protest.

Democrats love keeping blacks in poverty on their projects plantations, only appealing to them every 4 years. Their welfare/abortion politics is meant to keep blacks poor, uneducated, and mindless followers. And it's working. Stay on the plantation the democrats built black people. Heaven forbid you take on personal responsibility, hard work, pride in community and family, and rise from the slums that the elites of the left want you to stay on. Keep those Obama phones, food stamps, and government checks that guarantee you never a chance to succeed. As long as big brother gives you a free ride, keep spouting "racism" to try and get more free stuff. Hopefully a few more hurricanes come about so the poor, descriminated BLM crew can rescue more Jordans from those oppressive shoe stores.

1st amendment, yes. But they are representing a company, with team/league logos and uniform. Their political protests can ABSOLUTELY be shut down during the anthem.

Dang it McCoy, but at least he's almost past his prime.

Is he upset that whites are twice as likely to be shot by the police than blacks?

This is true. Their utopia in Venezuela is a great testament to this. Everyone is equal in their starvation because they all wanted this socialist, all share, ideology.

I'm still confused about what injustices they are talking about. Is it that blacks kill blacks at a much higher rate than any other race here in the USA? Or is it that black males who make up 8%of the population here in the USA commit 50% of the violent crimes? Or is it that almost twice as many unarmed white males are shot by the police than black males? Or is it that if you are black, you can score lower on any aptitude/qualification test here in the USA, and because you are black, you jump ahead of others who out performed you? Or are they upset with this Asian centric constitution that has allowed asians to be the most successful culture in the USA?(just kidding about the constitution being Asian centric, but it does debunk the "white constitution" argument that supposedly keeps minorities down, as the average Asian income is above the average white income.)

Ahead of the market, like Target, ESPN, Starbucks, General Mills, Hollywood... seems like getting ahead of the market on SJW issues leads to massive layoffs, drop in stocks/viewers, and overall terrible business strategy. But let's see how it works out for them Cotton. Black males make up about 8% of the population in the US, yet commit about 50% of the violent crimes. But even with this in mind, unarmed WHITE males are almost twice as likely to be shot by the Police than unarmed black males. So where exactly is this injustice. It is based on emotions and not facts.

Is he concerned that African Americans are over represented in football at the college and pro level?

It's a fact that he doesn't belong. It's also a fact that he is in the NFL. You can be somewhere, and not belong there. I can be in the women's restroom, but I don't belong there.

I love the meme, but I think it's more fact than opinion. Big Bad Vlad doesn't belong in the NFL.
