Colin Kaepernick was Right

Hoax.  Also, I don’t work for you.  So this little game of asking a series of loaded questions and demanding answers is to be played elsewhere.  Any time you’d like to respond on the merits to what I wrote, feel free to do so.

Also, eyes on the prize here.  The booing last week in KC is another sad illustration of the point that Colin Kaepernick was right.  

 

Stop asking loaded questions?  Nope, just asking you to back up your claims.  See you can not or will not back them up then I'll move on because as usual you bore me to death. 

 

People booed because there is systemic racism?  You area one clueless tool aren't you.  I'm pretty sure they booed because that is their way of saying "get politics the ***** out of sports!"   I am so glad I gave up on sports before all this went down.  Shows I was right about athletes all along.

That is not rule #2 evidence.  Please support your contention with a link, as required by rule #2.  Thank you. 

 

Good lord you are pathetically boring.

Does anyone know why NFL players are kneeling this year?  Do they have a specific point?  Do they have an action plan to address their points or are they just kneeling for the cameras for 2 minutes and then going about their football business for the balance of the week? 


They are kneeling to show the world they are doing something. This should eliminate the systematic racism they are fighting any day now. Just as this did two generations ago.

Hoax.  You didn’t ask me to substantiate anything.  You responded with questions about minutia.

Hoax.  They’re kneeling to bring attention to an issue that people like you minimize and generally ignore.

Also, sports is happy you’re gone.  They don’t need people who make the natural leap from cooking food to expertly managing money to stay afloat.

1.  Most certainly did ask you to substantiate several things.  Let's start with these:

     A.  Which Urban Schools get the money?   Now I don't expect you to name specific districts but what would you think would be a viable plan on how to determine this?  Why only urban schools.  What about the rural schools in the south with lots of poor students with higher levels of melanin?  Why are you turning your back on them?

     B.  Do you feel that some of the treatment by the police of some of these communities is somewhat self inflicted?  Do you not feel they have some culpability in this?  How do you propose we fix this? 

     C.  You mentioned loan forgiveness programs.  What REPAYE/PAYE/IBR/ICR plans aren't good enough?  And if not what other plans would you suggest that will help students with higher levels of melanin?

 

2. Attention has been brought.   Many, many, many times.  Why in your mind is there still a problem and what are the next logical steps to reduce/eliminate your vision of this systemic racism?

 

3.  Managing money??  You really don't know what I do, do you?

What issue and if we interviewed 100 kneelers around the league separately how consistent would the answers be? 

Take a shot at it and let me know.  Racial discrimination will be the theme.

Instead of asking a litany of questions, try telling me why the ideas will or won’t work.  Tool.

I would love to tell you how your ideas will or won't work.  You haven't given any details on them.  They are vague at best.  I'm trying to give you the opportunity to give me some details and you dodge and dodge and dodge.  That makes me a tool?  If you have no details on how all this will work that's fine.   Just admit it and I'll leave you alone.

Hoax.  I gave you ideas.  You demand micro details with respect to the jobs.  Then you called me a tool.  I’d love specifics from you on why these ideas (reducing armed police in schools, integration of city/suburb student bodies, incentivizing such integration through scholarship monies and future student loan forgiveness, and increasing minority participation in gifted and talented programs) won’t reduce race-based barriers.  Your move.  Tool.

He's being proven right every single day that passes. It's pretty amazing he was willing to sacrifice his entire career right in his prime for something that he believed in. Years later the mass majority now shares the same views, even if they don't attribute it to him now, or even think fondly of him. That "son of a B word" changed the whole world.

You gave me very vague ideas. I demand nothing. I simply as for details.  Micro details?  No.  Details. 
 

I will tell you why your vague ideas won’t work.  Because some of those ideas have been tried and have not solved the problem. And yes there is a problem.  If your ideas would work why didn’t Affirmative Action?  Shouldn’t that of have fixed your problem of systemic racism?  In my mind we need to focus more on the family unit values that seem to be greatly lacking in these communities than the carrots you propose.  I’m a big carrot guy but it’s not working.

Rule #2 with respect to the prior failure of “some of” my ideas.

Loan forgiveness. Scholarships.  More money for schools.  Integration.  

 

Can you at least agree that a decent amount of these issues can be fixed at home? 
 

Now Rule #2 (I assume it means provide proof) of systemic racism
