PIZ Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Just my opinion, but I don’t think the Bills should be promoting BLM the organization. BLM took a phrase and made it their organization name or at least that’s the way they got a nation to support them. So if you say “I am against Black Lives Matter” you sound racist. I am against these beliefs below, that the BLM organization believes, but I have the belief that the Lives of Blacks Matter. I think they should promote the belief that the lives of blacks matter, without saying that they are supporting the BLM organization. I don’t think most people realize that there is a difference between the Black Lives Matter organization and the phrase “Black Lives Matter”. “We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable”. https://blacklivesmatter.com/what-we-believe/ 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 So many ways to honor the contributions of African Americans in WNY. Perhaps one idea would be creating a school similar to what LeBron James did back in Akron, OH “I Promise”. There are many ideas but one way we can all help show solidarity is by patronizing black owned businesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DE Bills Fan Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 6 hours ago, SectionC3 said: It hasn't hit the news yet, but as of this morning the Bills converted the video boards around the exterior of the stadium from their usual purpose of playing highlights (24/7, even in the dead of night in the dead of winter) to tools to convey the message that "Black Lives Matter" (in white text over a black background). It's good messaging to employees reporting to work for the first time this season, and it's an interesting approach given McDermott's ambiguity with respect to kneeling for the national anthem and the Red Sox messaging of last week. It also caused me to wonder whether the Pegulas will donate the name of the stadium for the season to a charitable cause in the absence of a naming rights sponsor. I'm not sure Black Lives Matter Stadium would apply to a particular charity, but it might be something the NFL would like. To the extent the Bills identify a worthy charitable recipient, I wonder if the value of the forgone naming rights deal might help a bit with respect to taxes. In any event, good on the Bills for putting those video boards to good use. This is really disappointing. As a fan of 50 years, I thought that I had seen it all; WIDE RIGHT, HOMERUN THROWUP, THE DROP as well as all of the losing seasons and playoff defeats (many of which were heartbreaking). BLM is an organization that is anti-family and anti-white. I cannot express my feelings tany better than what Marcellus Wiley said about his lack of support for BLM on his show a couple of weeks ago. I really hoped that the BILLS would have not supported this organization and can only hope that they make better decisions about this in the future... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the military and was shot at albit from drug rulers but I do know what it sounds like when small arms hit your helicopter. I also apply every year for grants to 5 different cities to work on my rental properties I never get any money 20 years friends always do.

Here's where our two parties lie on a complete left-right spectrum of the major political parties in the world. If you drew a line connecting those two highlighted dots and found their midpoint (i.e. the middle of America), it would fall quite far to the right of the center as defined by the aggregate political policies of the entire world. The United States is one of the most right wing industrialized nations in the world. You can see how our "left" is barely to the left of center.
