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!

This cancer will not die, and they will go nowhere. And you know thats hard for me to say.

I wouldnt buy a ticket, merchandise, or watch a game, until these haters apologize to HIM and to US. (and if you know my racial makeup, i dont exactly qualify for the aryans) I mean Americans. It comes before games and sports. I can tell you Media isnt doing well this year... CBS just had massive layoffs. These fools are about to find out who pays the freight.
I don't think you are giving these men enough credit, Mike. They all know Brees far better than us. If they say they have forgiven Brees for his words then I believe them. I believe Brees is sincere and I have no doubt they do as well. The cancer is with the media for fueling exchanges such as this. Brees and his teammates are not stupid. They know what is going on. They were able to talk personally yesterday and have apparently found common ground. People tend to react to extremes quickly these days. Brees is the same man he was one week ago. For anyone to say that they have lost respect for him forever is pretty shallow thinking.

And those haters are the media, Mike. They are the ones that fan the flames and feed the fire.

I'am a black American just like my father and grandfathers that also served for this country. I come from a military family and grew up in a strict home. The majority of black American do. Its the minority that gives the majority a bad name. Like with cops the majority of cops are good but it’s the few bad ones that give them a bad name.

This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with communities being divided which allows sociopaths to navigate unnoticed between the cracks and prey on targets of opportunity.

That is not going to get fixed playing us vs them.

Cops shoot and kill 1000 people a year (documented statistic). Given the level of stress involved in those situations I assume at the very least 5% error. That is 50 innocent people killed every year. Since 2007 only 35 cops have been convicted of a bad shooting. This has nothing to do with race and everything to do with Americans fighting with each other rather than their government.

That is not going to get fixed playing us vs them.

If you want to call me liberal for not being sucked into a false dichotomy... That is fine by me, the liberals call me Alt-Right for the same reason. I am comfortable on my island of clarity and peace.

I think you truly believe this. Unfortunately, in reality people are being called racist and told to stfu for saying don't kneel for the flag. Figure out a different protest. I'm qith you, I'm on your side but this one action I'm not okay with. The reply F you racist. Kneel before Zod.

Its a joke, there's nothing to learn from listening to people who lie.

People have been calling each other things for centuries, I was just called liberal believe it or not.

Truth be told, I am as happy to be called liberal as you are seeing someone kneel for the national anthem. Yet here we are, still speaking civilly and you somehow rethought that statement without me telling you to go %&^K your self.

Cooler heads have prevailed?

Good to see the discussions on here...

Some I don't agree with, others I do, but I value everyone expressing their opinion.

I see some people calling for posters to be banned. Regardless of what there post is, I hope we don't start going that rout. Freedom of speech is important to me, even if I disagree with what they say.
