  2. Bottom line food for thought. Sports have been one of the Few things Americans can come Together and just be Americans. A lot of stuff is getting politically on both sides . It’s gone take reasonable people on both sides to come up with reasonable solutions. If we wish to have our sports be about sports again.

    Black National Anthem?

    You can dislike the men who wrote it all you want but you can't have America without the constitution.

  5. If you go back and study, some of the founding fathers were opposed to slavery... it’s an issue that they conceded on so that the colonies could unite and break free from England. The issue remained a polarizing one that led up to the Civil War. Did you know that slavery was still legal in the England at the time of the American Revolution? It was partially outlawed in 1807 and formally abolished by the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833? America is no different than any other modern nation. There’s a history of slavery everywhere. In 2020, you’re mad that America was doing something in 1776 that pretty much every other country in the world was doing at the same freaking time.

  7. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” And you say throw this out??? What do you think will happen if we get rid of our individual rights and freedoms???

  8. You cannot "love America" but hate the constitution. We cannot be America without the constitution, it's wrapped up in the fiber of what being an American is. Our constitution is what allowed people to challenge and ultimately overcome slavery. Without the constitution the decision (slavery or no slavery) is left in the hands of the people with money...what do you think they do? The constitution defends OUR freedoms as Americans.

  11. You know, I agree with you, but at the same time I disagree. About the only problem that I have with PamFam is that his pride won’t allow him to admit that there’s a violence problem in the black community.... which is pretty typical of the black community and BLM. Until the black community acknowledges that black violence is out of control, they’ll never be able to fix it. The man can cry about the Star Spangled Banner not being “their” anthem and otherwise complain about getting historically screwed by the “systemic” and “institutional” (both code words for “we can’t prove it”) racism, and I’m certain that if we’d just allow them, most blacks would buy one-way tickets out of here. EXCEPT NOBODY EVER DOES BECAUSE IN SPITE OF THE NONSTOP COMPLAINING, NO BLACK PERSON EVER LEAVES BECAUSE THIS IS THE BEST NATION ON THE PLANET IN WHICH TO BE BLACK. Fact.

  12. PAMFAN10, We might have different political opinions but I think that's what makes this country great. You state your opinion and you allow others to state theirs...and that's what this forum should be about. Let's face it, we're all grown...and nothing we hear on this forum is going to convert anyone. No matter what color we are, we're all Americans. I dont think using this place to post nonsensense and half-stories just to anger people for entertainment is doing anybody any good. I may disagree on some things with you but I will always be respectful when it is reciprocated, as you have shown...and I know most folks will agree with that

  13. Yeah...this morning I slapped a 4 year old Japanese American girl for what they did to us at Pearl Harbor. That’s about how much sense you make.

  14. So what you're saying is anything done during slavery is not for all Americans? And insulting? So.... Anything in the constitution prior to the end of the Civil War needs to be thrown out? You can't believe that needs to happen, but that is what you are preaching.

    Black National Anthem?

    Well, I was commenting about you saying it wasn’t about the flag. The flag my Dad served for 30 years in the USMC to defend - including 2-1/2 tours at war with 2 Purple Hearts and The bronze medal with Combat V for valor among other commendations. The first time he met me, I was already walking and talking. He went overseas when I was just a few months old. When he was 50, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 non-Hodgkins lymphoma due to exposure to agent orange. He eventually died from it. His biggest regret was not being able to serve his flag and country anymore. Before you think that Kaepernick’s harmless protest has nothing to do with the military, ask the men and women who have sacrificed EVERYTHING for flag and country. I have no issue whatsoever with him protesting. He’s doing it all wrong. My dad died so your punk Kaepernick could piss on his service.

  16. Kaepertwit let his feelings be known by wearing socks depicting police as pigs. He is a real POS!! Good riddance, hope he never takes another snap in the NFL.

  17. So, if someone says the Rebel flag just looks cool to them and it doesn’t mean anything racial, is that ok? I think I know your answer. Just cuz Kap says it, doesn’t it make it any less disrespectful. While I may not agree with his message, I respect his right to peacefully protest. I would much rather he did it in a much less volatile and ill perceived way. March, give speeches, grow a bigger fro, move to Canada, write a song...just don’t cause the perception of disrespect to our armed forces, our good cops and Americans in general. I think he’s done pretty well for someone so downtrodden.

  18. No disrespect, but “harmed no one” is not true. Ask soldiers who lost limbs or eyes. Ask kids whose moms and dads never came home. Ask Parents who never get to see theirs sons or daughters again. If kneeling is harmless, then so are statues and flags and names of federal buildings or military bases. Harm isn’t just physical as I’m sure you will agree. It’s also perception and intent.

    Idk if that was in order or not @RaiderGirl2010 if so, putting Vidor at number 3 makes no sense, whatsoever.
