    So if Whites had affirmative action for 300 years, don't you think minorities deserve a chance?

    Your laughing because your argument is so bad you can’t provide a single example to back it up? That’s... pretty sad.

    My argument is sound. You should do stand up comedy; you are gifted.

    You’ve made no argument. This has been your entire thing. “Systematic racism and oppression is a thing, but there are no examples of it to present. You just have to believe in it.”

    An executive order from 1893 restrict's Trump's Constitutional authority? Are you sure?

    THE PRESS IS DETERMINED TO CLAIM TRUMP IS “POLITICIZING” FOOTBALL. Have They Not Noticed Their Leftist Allies Politicizing Football, and Everything Else, For a Decade?

    The left wanted a culture war. Apparently they forget that the other side can fire back during one.

    We have to level the playing field. Because of white male privilege they are starting the race 100 yards ahead

    It’s stupid if you are a privileged white male who throughout history had privileges, while minorities were denied the privileges you were. With those privileges come legacies which are carried out today.

    Such hateful "othering" of those you have been picking a fight with for years, finally a few jabs back and you guys collapse into a quivering mess.

    Half of the country is broken and in the middle of a nervous breakdown, and they can't understand why the rest of us are sick of hearing their endless conniptions.

    The press says Mr. Trump is pushing the battle of the national anthem because it plays to his base. I suppose it does. But here's what galls even non-Trumpians about this kneeling kerfuffle: We live in a world soaking in partisan politics. Then one day you wake up ready to relax with NFL Sunday, and you discover that "The Star-Spangled Banner" has become totally politicized. Any normal person, including liberals who won’t admit it, would have a three-word reaction to this spectacle, and the first two words begin with "w" and "t."

    So what else is new? Today, if someone has a grievance or beef, first thing they do is look for something to attach it to--the anthem, the Pledge of Allegiance, 19th-century American fiction, Mom’s apple pie--anything that will draw the world's attention, meaning the attention of the viral plague called social media.

    I got an email this week from San Francisco flogging "Artists Get Political Ahead of Midterms." How? By embedding political messages in everyday objects, such as bus kiosks, hand towels, bedspreads and toilets.

    Then, even now, the people who voted for Hillary still claim to be shocked and stunned that an electorate beaten down by the politicization of everything in life voted for the guy who makes a mockery of all that!    ​

    Wouldn't this just encourage people to kneel?

    Trumping the NFL

    President Trump's offer to consider pardons for people recommended by NFL players is a polite way of saying, put up or shut up.

    NFL players say they kneel during the national anthem to protest police brutality. Colin Kaepernick, who began this movement, explained the protest to NFL.com in August 2016.

    Heres a list of six good things Donald Trump did in his lifetime and if you don't immediately reverse your position on Trump after reading this or you demand some sort of context for these deeds then you're just a bitter poopy pants who hates America.

    Sigh.

    How did they get "so ahead", if all the other races were here first?

    Haven't white males OUTPERFORMED the rest of the planet, to get to where they are?

    That’s because they denied women and blacks the same opportunities
