Not defending Trump bro. He makes me cringe.

wat

One is legal because of the 1st Amendment and rape is illegal. One violates someone's personal space, the other doesn't. You should leave the logic to the liberals imo. I mean Kap has you all kinds of mad, seems to be working.

the amazing thing is CK is only good enough as a backup, which is like best job in the world cause you get paid $5-6m/yr to sit on the bench. He sacrificed that with his protest, yet tcash/trump are the ones who are super furious about it - despite it having 0 effect on their lives.

I'm probably ponied by days on this, but the latest Taibbi piece was very good.

Pretty sure in debate trump said we should deport flag burners. All USA#1ERS like myself concur. Extend it to sitters and avoiders of anthem as well.

For the love of god if I hear one more stupid right-wing American say the military is why they have their freedoms! The military has as much to do with freedom in America as Dunkin Donunts.

In fact, any realistic historical analysis would have to conclude America is less free because of your military.

Somehow Americans have convinced themselves that one of thier biggest problems is thier biggest strength. Your military is a terrible thing for your country. It’s not the source of any of your freedoms.

Regarding that post of the Taibbi article

This is the sanitized version. It strains credibility doesn't it? We dropped agent orange to kill rice.

Someone un-ban tcash. I wanna see if he was upset at having his freedom of speech oppressed.

Man, tcash seems triggered

I mean, the "we didn't just drop chemical weapons to make it easier to shoot them, we also meant to starve them" doesn't really help with the american exceptionalism argument.

hes a secret librul!!11

Could always give ND and MT to the Native Americans.

As a vet I get really sick and tired of conservatives evoking "Vets" for everything they disagree with. We aren't your ****ing mascots.

That's probably true. The dude's a bigot with that aspy trait of not understanding how to adjust one's behavior based on circumstance / context so surely would freely call Mexicans rapists, post white supremacist memes about AA murder rates, brag about molesting women, etc etc etc.

He'd break many reasonable limits of civil discourse and ethical behavior which ironically is precisely how he became POTUS.

I see dozens of kids a month and ask about their interests as part of my job, swear to you that 4 of 5 six to ten year olds list those three activities as their fav.

While catching your breath after the Nth time you've gone manic over CK's method of protest, have you ever even ONCE paused for the briefest of moments to consider why it is his simple act has so successfully brought attention to his cause?

Of course you haven't, such a thing would require critical thinking. I'll help you out.

How do you think white male regressives getting triggered & perpetually wetting the bed over this has influenced CK's goal of bringing attention to racial injustice? Alternatively, how much less successful would he have been to that end if you didn't collectively lose your **** over him taking a knee during sportsball renditions of your favorite song?

About 95% of people in Puerto Rico speak Spanish as their primary language, while about 70% don't speak English well. In Guam I think English is the primary language.

Also, I may be wrong on this, but I'm pretty sure the governor of Guam is a Republican who has supported Trump, and the governor of Puerto Rico is a moderate in a "progressive," party (some describe it as conservative or neo-liberal, but it's called a progressive party by name).

That's fake, just FYI (according to Snopes).

it's also fake just by using your eyes

Exactly. It’s so effective because it targets the great American lie. At th core of being American is the delusion that America is the best country on earth which is only true for rich white men.

0% chance he could have predicted the national pants-****ting that ensued. I'd like to believe he'd have taken a knee even if he knew it'd lead to him not signing a contract but there's insufficient evidence he's that dedicated to his cause.

The odd thing is kneeling is more respectful than standing. It's not like they are sitting down for it.

It didn't explode till the fifth game or w/e he was kneeing for the anthem. Literally nobody gave a **** till some ******* with power was watching and had a tizzy when the camera went on him.

Nazi flag is just freedom of speech, kneeling is the biggest outrage and disrespect to america ever.

Trump's just gonna gain support for this, nothing the right agrees with more than "get in line with what I want you to do or else".

My bad. Saw it on the internets tube.
