You don't see any "america is shit to black people."? So when he says America oppresses black people, and there are bodies on the street and people getting away with murder, you think paraphrasing that as "America is shit to black people" is a stretch. Oppression and unpunished murder don't rise to your standard of 'shit'?
The fuck america was mine. But that's because I think if he said "Fuck America" he'd still be justified, let alone his much more reserved "I'm not going to stand up and show pride in a flag or america" that people are trying to walk back and play apologists over.
Why shouldn't it be about the flag or america? The flag represents this country. America is the country in which these things are happening. I can't follow why people are resisting this idea.

Nope, just to stupid to provide a link and to engage in a rational discussion. And you must be very fragile to let your emotions cloud critical thought so much. There, there (pats on head).
I'll say it again, he picked that time (singing of the anthem) to get his protest noticed. It initially had nothing to do with the flag or anthem. A valid protest as far as I'm concerned.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
