What is the controversy surrounding #takeaknee

[Brian37]

I won't call you a racist AM but there's a clear bias in your thinking. Can you be honest and answer one question - do black people scare you?

There's a white husband/black wife with two black teens living in the third house down the street. Don't recall ever being scared by them.

So if you claim you are not a racist, GREAT, awesome. PROVE IT by shutting the fuck up, and listen and understand and accept and face the fact that our economic and justice system DOES impact blacks more negatively than whites. If you are not willing to accept that, then you are a tone deaf moron.

Pretty sure I did that by acknowledging white privilege, at least to any reasonably intelligent person (which leaves you out).

No matter the positions you claim to espouse, your analysis -- and I use that term very loosely here -- of statistics shows a bias in your thinking.

How so?

Protest is hurting ticket sales:

You haven't admitted shit, otherwise you wouldn't have spent so much time in this thread bitching about others doing the right thing. 

FYI, white poor people exist too. So I am not trying to make anyone feel guilty about being white. All the players were protesting is the inequity of our economic system and justice system.

My friend in Oklahoma, grew up in a poor family. Even now, even with a college degree, and working at Walmart, he is legally blind. He depends on disability too. But unlike you, whom have done nothing but bitched about players protesting, he understands why they do and he agrees they should.

He doesn't like the term "white privilege". But he does accept that between poor blacks and poor whites blacks are affected more negatively on average ratio wise.

And as far as ticket sales going down. I could give a shit less, some things really are more important than profit. Same shit with pro sports happened back in the 60s and 70s when black players increased in numbers. That reaction will be short lived.
