Spoiler alert dipshit, it was a suggestion to not seem AS disrespectful as sitting on the bench. Never did he say he agreed with any protest, he suggested it as the initial protest was even more disrespectful.
The reason everyone hates you on here is because all you do is attempt to belittle everyone and have a simple mind that "everyone is wrong but me". It's every time with you. We get it, you feel Russia colluded with Trump, America is a repressive country where only blacks are taken advantage of and held down, and so much other garbage that there is no point to continue. You seem to think because you're in the media that you hold a superior edge to everyone on here, but to be honest, you offer nothing. I can honestly say no one likes you on here and only patted you on the back the last time you cried about no one liking you bla bla bla out of the goodness of their hearts. You're a cancer and a person that only responds negatively and that thrives off negative emotions from others. Wow, pat yourself on the back there hoss, you're makibg the world a better place. Just give it a rest, because good gosh almighty it gets old and nauseating seeing your continuous bitching.
Boy, according to you guys I'm the true asshole here yet you can't share your shitty, ignorant ass little opinion without calling names like a 3-year old (not to mention I wasn't even talking to you).
And you 100% made that shit up about him suggesting it because it would "not seem as disrespectful." So, either you dont actually know the story or you're putting words in the guys mouth.
"We sorta came to a middle ground where he would take a knee alongside his teammate. Soldiers take a knee in front of a fallen brother’s grave, you know, to show respect. When we’re on a patrol, you know, and we go into a security halt, we take a knee, and we pull security.
[Kaepernick] reached out and we were able to sit down together for a couple of hours before the last preseason game last year. It was really cool to hear him just listen, too, and be very open-minded, too, and [say] “Look, I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t want to hurt your brothers and sisters.” I showed him text messages of friends of mine and some of them were saying I was a disgrace to the Green Berets ’cause I was even meeting with him. And some of them were like, “I’m with you man but it really hurts me to see that.”
So when I talked to them, it was mutual. Me, him, and Eric Reid [said] “I think maybe taking a knee would be a little more respectful. It’s still a demonstration. You’re still saying something but, people take a knee to pray. So for me it was a common ground, at least, to start from."
Straight from the horses mouth.
As for the rest of your whiny little diatribe... IDC who does or doesn't hate me (or have you not gotten that yet)? There you go again making shit up and putting words in peoples mouths again. Show me post, just one single post, where I've EVER said, "America is a repressive country where only blacks are taken advantage of and held down." Spoiler alert for you, you can't because I never have, liar.
And as far as your little media crap, I'm a sports editor for a small newspaper. That doesn't make me superior to the old guy on the corner screaming at the sky, let alone anyone else, nor have I ever said or thought I was. And you made up the shit about people patting me on the back about nobody liking me on here, that literally never happened.
And you can say that I attempt to belittle everyone because I dont share your ignorant opinion but you're the one that came in here calling me names (yet again). This has been happening for forever. Having a difference of opinion on this site, in regards to politics, is seen by some of you as spitting in your face. You pretend like its me that has the issue, but you absolutely cannot stand that someone (or someones) may just think differently than you. I'm a left leaning person living in south Alabama, I've literally gone my entire life hearing nothing but a different opinion (and being shouted down by dickheads like you for having the audacity to voice mine).
