So his socks and T-shirt caused you to tune him out? Are you that easily triggered?

Yeah, sounds to me like you were just fishing for an excuse or reason to discredit and ignore him or anyone else with that message. You just wanted to ad hominem him too death and silence his message, not really address it.

So do you believe a guy who supports Che Guevara but preaches human rights is credible? Also, you avoided the rest of my post. Why? Because you didn’t want to address it. It goes against you’re little self made mindset you’ve applied to everyone who doesn’t see it the way you do.

Do you justify this violence?

Don't you think the fact that we know the names of all the victims that sparked these protests/riots is probably evidence that police brutality is not nearly as prominent in this country as you would like to believe?

See, you still are not able to even bring yourself to say that it happens far too often.

Plus, these case still pale in comparison to the other incidents that don't end in a civilian getting injured or killed. These cops over the last decade have ramped up their militaristic tactics on the people (all races and now all genders). Hell, even family pets aren't safe around cops anymore without them having to shoot the s#!t out of Fido for trying to lick his jackboots.

And not for nothing, that is your complaint, not the complaint at large. The narrative is that black people are being disproportionately attacked by police BECAUSE THEY ARE RACIST. And you know that's the narrative. If George Floyd was white we are not here.

I have admitted that. I'm of the opinion that the cops need to improve in all of these interactions, no matter the race and gender. If they would do that, there is no ammunition for these people to use to riot.

Regardless of opinions on race, politics, feminism, sports, colors, etc., I fail to see how anyone with an IQ above like 35 could justify trashing these cities. Curfew is over, mow these people down. Let's go to bed.

And no one here is despite the baseless accusations

I'll address it.

Second, I believe the anthem should be respected as many others do. Kneeling during it inevitably divided people. He could have kneeled pregame or any other time and then people could’ve actually gotten behind it, and the point of the kneeling wouldn’t have shifted the focus from police brutality to disrespect of the nation. He made it about him. You say the people who didn’t like his protest had no issues with police conduct, wrong there too. I think police behavior definitely needs work. Clear issues there. So idk, you might feel like you’ve got it all figured out but you’re just lumping people into some mindset that you created yourself.

Well, I don't care too much about the national anthems, flags or the pledge of allegiance too much. Those are just warm and fuzzy sloganeering and propaganda tools. Hell, the pledge of allegiance was written by a socialist. And the law of the land is more important than a flag or some song. The Constitution, and in particular the Bill of Rights have been eroded since 9/11 and I hardly see one "patriot" or veteran stand up and get as butt hurt about that as I do these same people get butt hurt about a flag or a song.
