For those of you asking "How does the national anthem have anything to do with racial profiling and oppression. "

The Star Spangled Banner was actually wrote as a poem by Author Francis Scott Key.  In it he openly celebrates the murder of slaves.

The song itself was rooted in the celebration of slavery and the murder of Africans in America, who were being hired by the British military to give them strength not only in the War of 1812, but in the Battle of Fort McHenry of 1814. These black men were called the Corps of Colonial Marines and they served valiantly for the British military. Key despised them. He was glad to see them experience terror and death in war — to the point that he wrote a poem about it. A shortened version of that poem is now our national anthem.....

No refuge could save the hireling and slave

From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

We have cops out killing black people for no reason. We have white supremacists marching the streets and plowing through crowds and Trump calls them "good people". 
I understand why they are taking a knee. I'm happy the NFL are supporting them. Something needs to change!

We have BLM marching and shouting death to cops.  BLM burning and destroying neighborhoods.  You have blacks out looting people that have been the victims of catastrophic weather events(I'm sure there are whites doing the same).  So you need need to try and set on your pedestal and think that the whites are the only ones to blame.  There is plenty of evil doing to go around.  But that is the problem with the black community, always blame the white man.

The black lives movement is not about that. Our lives matter, too. Period.

When did this happen?  Did it really happen? I need a source besides some conservative website. If it is true, I don't think it is acceptable. If you were black and you knew why it was written. Would you stand?

In reading your description of the verse, I interpreted the words as a depiction of ALL enemies ( yes, anyone who fought against us) losing the battle.  The fact that some of them were slaves, from my perspective, was not a significant item.  If there had been no slaves fighting us but rather, in their place, a group of Chinese soldiers, I can only assume Mr. Key would have made reference to that fact as well.  As for whether the Dallas Cowboy situation really happened, I think you already know it really happened but don't want to acknowledge it because it goes against your narrative.  But, if you insist:

A bunch of Bolshevik being spread by this one.
Blacks were victims of an estimated 805,000 nonfatal violent crimes and of about 8,000 homicides in 2005. While blacks accounted for 13% of the U.S. population in 2005, they were victims in 15% of all nonfatal violent crimes and nearly half of all homicides. These findings are based on data from the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR), Supplementary Homicide Reports.

• Blacks living in urban areas were more likely than those in suburban or rural areas to be victims of violence.

So Bolshevickers why is a black person living in an urban area more likely to be a victim of violence then in a rural area. Since Urban areas have more minorties then rural areas? If what the Boshevickers are saying is true "systematic racism" then the  numbers should show more violence in ruaral areas since that is where all the racist always live?
The only answer it can not be is personal responsibility or lack of morals and character while listening to NWA all day.

If BLM really cared about Black Lives they would not be looting the liquor store...
......A quarter of violence against blacks was committed by offenders under the influence of alcohol or drugs Black victims were less likely than white victims, somewhat less likely than American Indian victims, and as likely as Asian and Hispanic victims to face an offender under the influence of alcohol or drugs. About 25% of nonfatal violence against blacks involved an offender perceived to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The victim did not know if the offender was under the influence of alcohol or drugs in 48% of violence against blacks (not shown on table).

If police were racist would they would show up in a decent time to crimes by blacks?
Police responded quickly to the majority of reported nonfatal violence against blacks According to black victims, police responded within an hour in about 91% of reported violent victimizations. Police response to nonfatal violence against blacks was similar to that for whites and Hispanics.

Of course the biggest Bolshevik lie of all is that "systamatic racism" is so bad that when minorities  become police officers they  become racist themselves.  Absentee fathers, drug use, living of the welfare state, voting democrat, a culture of disrespect  and listening to music that spews misogyny and hate towards others can never be an answer.

Anyway here is a link to the data I mentioned above

So none of these things exist in the white community? White kids dont listen to rape music etc? What makes them shoot up schools and movie theaters? Why are white males more prone to rape children and become serial killers?  Is it becsuse they listen to punk rock music? What you said is laughable. I am so happy Kaepis frustrating so many racists, like.yourself. Get over it. :). He will never stand and neither will I.

No one said that ALL police officers are racists. What have you been smoking?

87% of whites are killed by other whites.

But he only mentioned slaves. Why didn't he mention white people that were fighting against the U.S.?

      Yes. The Israel haters, and those who vote for and support the Israel haters have a clock ticking on them. They don't realize it but they do. Judgement will come and it won't be good.

      Sen. Tom Cotton was talking about all the tents set up at the Ivy League schools. Poor college stundents are so poor they scream to have the debt "forgiven" (transferred to us) but suddenly hundreds of brand new $500 tents show up. That Soros money does a lot.

      The Bible prophesied the destruction and restoration of Israel and the gathering back of God’s people. I don’t know about the purity of the twelve tribes, but God’s word is true regardless of how man interprets it. God says he will bless those the support Israel. Many consider Israel bullies because they don’t agree with the magnitude of their defense towards their attackers. The Old Testament is full of God’s support of the annihilation of their enemies.

      Here is the facebook post for y'all   I’m not going to put names or schools on this, but feel free to screen shot it to whoever you like. Yes yes, I’m a baseball guy. But I love football more than baseball. My son played all three sports in high school. So I’m not a baseball only guy. But if your high school football coach has your Varsity baseball son doing football drills in pads right now, that is wrong. At one certain school, the baseball team lost their starting third baseman (Gladiator kid) because he dislocated his elbow in a football drill. Two weeks before high school baseball playoffs, and now his season is done. Basically this coaches decision to make Varsity baseball players do football workouts on April 22nd, 5 months before Friday night lights, just sabotaged this kids season, and the teams season. And once again, I’m a huge football supporter, but this is wrong!! This is why kids stop playing football. Coaches preach they want kids playing all the sports, well how about respect baseball season, from Feb to May !  If the shoe was on the other foot, and a kid got injured playing baseball in October and he was a varsity football starter, what would that coach do? Be pissed off! And I would 100% agree with him! There is a reason I don’t have a fall baseball program with football guys. Because I respect football season. All I’m asking is football coaches to respect baseball season. Respect the High School baseball coaches that have worked their ass off to try to get their team in a playoff situation. Support them, don’t Sabotage them by taking their players out because of a “all important April 22nd” football workout. And I don’t want to hear this was bad luck, or any crap like that!!!A lot of these kids are Division One Baseball players, and just good high school football players. If you want to continue to have these kids play football, start doing the right thing. If not, I’m going to try to get those kids quit football and just focus on baseball. And let me say it again, I want all my Gladiator kids playing football!! I go support them watching their football games, and I love it!! But not at the cost of an injury in April playing football, not baseball . Bad miss……Do a better job! Be a better football coach, and remember, it’s not about you, but it’s about the kids who respect you and will do anything you ask them to do. Don’t punish them for being a good baseball or basketball player!!
