Backlash from Michael Thomas, among others, forces Drew Brees to clarify comments

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I invite all of you to stop and read the 14 pages here. Everyone using different words but sounding the same; everyone wanting to be heard, but no one is listening. Try continuing without using they or them. This country ...

Try continuing without using they or them. This country is divided into two, 'We the People' and 'the government'.

Rez made a point about what is genuine and what isn't. If you have genuine reverence for the flag you don't fly it once it is tattered, you do not fly it in inclement weather... There are 3-4 pages of etiquette and flag code regarding the United States flag that are relatively unknown much less followed by most people yelling "respect the flag".

Calls for respect for the flag feel hollow to this Veteran. They feel more like talking points than an understanding.

This is the cry of the liberal lunatic pretending to be moderate.

When my son sees a group and asks if they're like Mommy because they're black, ill let him know, no son mommy is Haitian. Theyre black American men. They like weed, 40 oz beer, and blaming qhite people. Stay the F away!

I am possibly misunderstanding your reply. You are referring to me as liberal?

Re: Backlash from Michael Thomas, among others, forces Drew Brees to clarify comments

Hi guys and girls. I don’t get on here much anymore....mostly because life is crazy and busy these days. But I feel the need to weigh in on this thing with Drew. I can’t even fathom what is going on. Drew Brees has shown his heart to New Orleans....the city, the communities...the state of Louisiana so many times and in so many ways that if you doubt his sincere efforts to help, you haven’t been paying attention. Without Drew, no Super Bowl, no respect, no amazing years. Michael Thomas, Malcolm Jenkins and the rest of them are so wrong for speaking against Drew. I hope MY QB takes his spoils and goes home and tells them all to have it their way. He does not in any way deserve the crap they have dealt him. I wish he would not have bowed to the front desk pressure and apologized. He had no reason to. That.is.all.

I’m black and I don’t smoke weed, drink beer, or blame white people for nothing. I served this country and what I have I've worked hard for. What you’re saying is really out there. And I’am a moderate also so don’t say I’m a liberal cause that is far from the truth

Do you have children? Sometimes what they have difficulty saying what they mean; the only way to know is to listen, ask questions, and listen to the answers. Emotional adults can be the same way.

If just hearing someone out is something you consider "liberal" then in your mind I suppose I am liberal.
