    why did the NFL re stir the hornets nest ?
    This topic was dead and all but forgotten.

    with their action I learned police have killed 378 black people since Kaepernick first knelt and re invigorated athletes to take a stand.
    Curious move

    I think it's always worth underscoring what the protests are, and aren't about. People go to great lengths to make it about the flag, or the military, to avoid grappling with the reality of what the players are protesting.

    I dont think most businesses would be happy with employees engaging in political acts on company time...especially when the political activism is objectionable to part of the customer base

    Maybe the protestors need to find a new outlet to better land their message.

    That would require spending their own money and time and they don't care that much to do it

    I'm not saying that Roseann shouldn't have gotten cancelled. I'm just pointing out hypocrisy.

    So its ok to criticize religion as opposed to race? Seems people are very selective on which religions you are allowed to criticize. Same goes for face actually.

    Do you have the rules so I can understand them?

    aside from the religion angle, we need to show more respect to people who hear voices in their heads...whether God's or someone else's voice

    "I am your retribution."

    To be fair to Roseanne I had no clue Jarret was part black. Certainly though one of those things you triple check before joking about. Don't drunk tweet. OR be dumb.

    I saw where msnbc brought on Joy Reid to bash Roseanne. Not a bad troll.
