Please do not allow what is propagating in the streets to find a place here on these boards. I don't recall anyone hating someone else because of their race back in January, there is no need to allow emotions to cause that now. Unless your avatar is of you, I don't know or care to know any of your races, it is irrelevant.

A black man was killed by a cop and the black community is pissed. Don't ask why all of a sudden now, just know they are, and don't get caught up in the ignorant defensiveness of rhetorical questions. Maybe... just maybe you should ask your self why your community doesn't get equally as pissed when someone from your ethnicity is killed by a cop.

I believe that there are bad cops and that there are cops bad at being a cop but overwhelmingly the force is good and does good. If the public is going to get rid of any bad cops it is not going to get done by dividing by race and allowing the politicians to play us against each other, no single race has that horsepower anymore.

For those of you that believe strongly in the movement, be aware that you have some of the stupidest white people on this planet speaking for you and they are not furthering your cause one bit. There is a reason Dr. King did his own speaking, he knew that JamesBob podcasting from his moms basement would fu%^ up his message.

We are all here because we love a team, that team is struggling with social issues presently and it might be of value if we present a unified cooler head example for them. I know some of you believe that a good example can change the way others think, lets see if we can show our team how to fight along side each other rather than with each other.

That American flag represents all of us just like it represented every single race of American that fought beside me under it. It is the beacon to millions of immigrants that come here seeking liberty and freedom. History has shown that millions of Americans, all races and genders, can unite under it and be victorious. The colors represent unity not division. Red for hardiness & valor. Blue for vigilance, perseverance & justice. White signifies purity and innocence.

Even if you think all of the above is bull****; please done let what is out there divide us in here, for no reason other than you love this team and this place.
