It's not about racism, it's about the flag

Post by Screw_Michigan »

Oh that's right, it's about racism and it always has been.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national ... story.html
When A. Scott Bolden appeared on Fox News to defend National Football League players who protest racism by kneeling during the national anthem, he instead found himself under attack.

“You’re wearing thousand-dollar cuff links; don’t give me the victim card!” host Tucker Carlson told Bolden, who is black and a partner in an international law firm. “Those cuff links cost more than my first car!”

After the September appearance, Bolden said racist messages flooded his voice mail and email.

“ ‘You n-word, S.O.B.,’ ” Bolden recounted from one voice mail, censoring the caller’s language. “ ‘You’re making millions as a lawyer while I’m making $10 an hour, and you have the audacity to complain about racism in this country.’ ”

Schilling looked at her husband, Dave McCabe, who’s 67 and a retired high school basketball coach. She nodded at me. “Tell him,” she said to McCabe, “what you said the NFL is …”

McCabe looked momentarily wary. He laughed a little. “I don’t remember saying that,” he said unconvincingly.

Schilling was having none of it. “You’re the one that told me, liar,” she said.

She looked at me.

The NFL?

“Niqqers for life,” Schilling said.


“For life,” McCabe added.

I saw where some person was saying the National Anthem is racist. When will it end?

Damn those NFL players for disrespecting the flag!

It's too bad they don't respect the flag like Tomi Lahren & Kid Rock!

United States Flag Code
§8. Respect for flag
j. No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.

Can't see how the verse is racist. It's descriptive with a bias and judgement. I'd imagine colonial marines wouldn't be popular in the US, ultimately the British aim was to create a buffer state between Canada and the US, be it black or Indian. A bit like creating Poland as a bulwark between the Soviet Union and Germany.
Germans employed Hiwis in Russia to a similar task, they weren't terribly popular in some circles.

Not that I'd compare them as Key was a hack, does this mean Shelley is a racist for commentary on Ozymandias :?

During the War of 1812 the Redcoats would offer American slaves the opportunity to fight for their freedom against their former masters.

This bothered Key and as the third stanza of The Star-Spangled Banner shows, Key reveled in their untimely demise. It seems to be a Maryland thing, their state song also celebrates the death of slaves fighting for freedom.

Strikes me he had problem with national choice, 'hirelings and slaves' implies freedom of decision and a poor one - in his view. I suspect he had a problem along those lines, rather than race? Key being a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed terrorist, errr.. revolutionary, would view service to the crown as self-appointed slavery in itself?

What's a "peom", niglet?
It's the Tourette's Spray, Gary Coleman's white twin can't help it.

I am just surprised that he didn't say 'shit or fuck or black cock" after "peom". You know stupid shit like that he always post that makes no sense.

What a piece of shit he was

Spiro Agnew becomes the first U.S. vice president to resign in disgrace. The same day, he pleaded no contest to a charge of federal income tax evasion in exchange for the dropping of charges of political corruption.

He had one of the best lineups in baseball last season and could barely break .500 much less make the postseason. He’s no Bruce Bochy, and don’t expect him to last too long in SF.
