Doubt he get close enough to Brees in week 14 to have opinion heard.

I may be in the minority here but I find repeating an act of perceived tragedy appalling and reprehensible.

A black man dies while a cop had his knee on his neck for 9 minutes.

Should I stand in the shape of a "T" in front of an atheist to honor Christianity?
Hold two fingers to my head to promote suicide awareness?
'Pour one out' as an homage to alcohol abuse?

FFS messaging matters.

It's a fact of life that some Americans are still stuck in the past and are racists who pass their values onto their children. Unfortunately, these are the ones getting all the media attention.

The next time you see a car broken down and people are jumping out to help push the vehicle I want you to notice that they are usually black people stopping to lend a hand.

Wearing African tribal garb for a photo-op. Isn't that cultural appropriation? Where is the outrage? That's worse that Trump holding up a Bible..at least he's Christian.

He never needed to apologize to anyone in the first place.
bunch of fascist racists.

No. He never needed to apologize, but he did after discussing the issues and coming to a new understanding of the gesture and what it truly expressed.

I've been there and done that. I felt the exact same way at first, but after talking with several friends I also completely changed my viewpoint.
