    What has never been stated is what black NFL players are protesting.

    The National Football League and National Basketball Association are 2 of the most racist organizations in the USA: racist and bigoted in employment against anyone who isn't black. NFL players are among the absolutely highest paid employees in the USA.

    So what are black NFL players protesting? That their teams are only 70 to 80% black, and not 100% black? Are they protesting the few non-black players on their teams demanding pure racism and purely black teams?

    I guess if you lived under a rock you would not know the players were protesting the treatment of black American citizens by some police departments.

    Your comments reflect that ignorance.

    Or really? So they are NOT protesting "white privilege?" NOT protesting Donald Trump? NOT protesting the immigration ban? Not protesting high black unemployment? Not protesting racism?

    You know that for a fact? Prove it.

    Not standing for the national anthem has NOTHING do to with what local police departments do. It isn't even rational as there is nothing the federal government has to do with it. Or are they claiming FBI agents are abusing blacks?

    On it's face, they are protesting the non-black members of their teams, which are overwhelming black.

    If your analysis is correct, than anyone buying an NFL ticket is financing opposition to the police and support of BLM.

    A statistically insignificant media fabrication. But you go in believing your leftist myths.

    This is one of those protests where the initial protest was really stupid and no one cared, but then it became "cool" to be involved, so a few more did it, now they forgot what they are protesting and it's turned into a protest against the President.

    No one is ever going to accuse the average NFL player of intelligence ;)

    So they protest with an act of submission LMFAO :)

    The whole thing is beyond comical :)

    If you couldn't be bothered to look up the reason for yourself, which has been explicitly stated for some time now, why bother making the thread?

    Perhaps if people paid attention to their concerns they would be less inclined to protest.

    Shoot! I thought they were cleaning up by protesting antifa and Black Lives Matter (you know, the group that chants that all they want is dead cops.)

    If you are a law abiding citizen, and dont run afoul of the law there is no chance of "police brutality".

    They're protesting whitey and whitey's countries, where they are minorities. Whites ruling over them is oppression.

    Does anyone find it amusing that the NFL/Kap stated it feels disrespected or oppressed by police or Mr Trump but the NFL for years turned its back on Rape, DUI's, Domestic violence, Drugs, Roids, Dog fighting etc. etc. and now the NFL wants to take the moral high ground? The NFL would not address the many abuses of the team players or management until outside pressure was put upon them and they got called out for it.

    Protest away Kap and others, The NFL's own history sucks...

    Donald Trump. Or at least that is how all the protests yesterday came to be seen by most non-political fans.
