Welcome To Trump World

Jehovah's Witnesses are not intentionally sitting or kneeling as a political statement, their religion actually forbids them from doing something like that. Colin Kaepernick has stated his protest was because "he refuses to show pride in a country that oppresses black people". It seems like a rather inappropriate venue considering he was next to a line of 50 mostly black men being paid millions to play professional ball. To me it became offensive, and bordering on ridiculous when the rest of them decided to do the same.

So they make a lot of money means that they can't be subjected to police brutality or racism? Ask Michael Bennett, defensive end for the Seattle Seahawks, who was held on the ground at gunpoint by the Las Vegas police despite having committed no crime. Or black tennis pro James Blake, who was tackled and manhandled by the NYPD outside of his hotel. His crime? He "fit a description." Being rich didn't stop it from happening to those two men, now did it? These are but two examples.
