    If yo understood what you read you wouldn't have such a foolish answer.
    The point is that America is not the only nation who owned or sold slaves Africa was the biggest trader in slavery than anyone.
    The way you people act is we are the only ones who ever had slaves I just proved your all hypocrits and full of false history.
    Go to the first source which is Africa where the idiot racist are killing white farmers and already started to starve because of their violent hateful ways.
    raping their little girls in front of them til they die then slowly killing the parents, don't even think about telling e about hate. Hacking them up with machette ,etc,etc,etc,.
    Nobody is more filled with hate than what is going on over there today.

    I'm not ignoring it
    as I pointed out in another post there are blacks that support the confederate flag so does that then make the confederate flag not offensive to blacks ?

    Forum rules require that I not address this post with logic so... instead I'll just say "neat".

    best you on occasion step outside your liberal bubble and you will realize not everyone as a matter of fact the majority doesn't think like you they are patriots they respect our flag and our anthem hold both in high regard and its wrong to disrespect either it didn't take Trump for them to have that sentiment

    if wearing an offensive shirt causes a riot the problem is with the rioters not the one that wore that offensive shirt

    An outfit cannot have an opinion or a belief. If you support violently attacking those wearing symbols you find offensive, you are in the wrong country.

    I wore a Dukes of Hazard T-shirt to school. Should I have been physically assaulted?

    Yes, if someone found it offensive, you should have been beaten to a pulp. I had a Dukes of Hazard lunch box, and also at one point had a Skynryd tee shirt. I'm lucky to have escaped with my life

    I wasn't the person who started that conversation. My concern is that white supremacists are no longer operating out in the open, which explains the decline in KKK attendance. That, in my opinion, makes these people even more dangerous.

    Nitpicking a handful of blacks who like it doesn’t make it less offensive. Or did you not notice the “72% of blacks find it racist” bit in your first link?

    How is anybody acting like we're the only people who owned slaves?

    Yeah.. buddy, this is what we call a distraction. The discussion is about what's occurring in the United States.

    and one vet telling Kaepernick to kneel doesn't make it any less offensive to the vast majority of all other vets
    so why do you keep bring that up as if it is some righteous excuse to tell others don't be offended by people disrespecting the national anthem

    Because unlike the flag, doing this in school is not guaranteed to get you in trouble.

    is it because those that are offended by the kneeling during the anthem have more self control raised properly so not to become violent over something they become offended over

    or are you referring to getting in trouble by the school and that brings us right back to the double standard and hypocrisy you either don't think exists or don't care that it does

    If it hasn’t been made clear already, i don’t give a sht whether white folks are butthurt over a double standard over a Confederate flag. That flag belongs to a failed nation of losers and as far as I’m concerned, the fact that more white people hate the kneeling but swear there’s nothing wrong with the flag tells me that folks have no issue wearing their racism out in the open.

    That’s fine. All of this is about stuff on school grounds, and the fact is you can’t wear it there, period. Deal with it.

    I didn't see any ' white people ' here say the kid was right or should have worn the shirt. What I did see was most people with any character would or fairness would never agree with a gang of kids jumping on one kid.
    Far as the flag is concerned though it is free speech so you " deal with it '. A sports event that people pay to see is not free speech or the place for politics. Even worse imo are the sick people who still go to watch these highly overpaid jerks.

    There used to be a black guy who sat beside Hyw. 49 between Hattiesburg and Jackson, near the Piney Woods School, who sold them and had one on his truck. This was 15 years ago.

    Don’t remember too many people here saying they were noble or good for jumping him.

    You can cry free speech all you want, it doesn’t work like that at schools. Suck it up and move on.

    As for sports games, I watch and attend them weekly because I don’t overdose on self righteousness like many folks who got upset by protests but will flaunt the flag of a failed nation because their open racism makes them really fcked up.

    and you just exposed your blatant racism
    skew white people don't give a dam what offends them their feelings don't matter
    what offends a minority is superior
    the definition of racism
