This is comical. The black community is having a tweetfest over this. At least they didn't go full on blackface.

SHANNON SHARPE
UNCANCELS DREW BREES
After QB Calls To Apologize


Shannon Sharpe had a change of heart about Drew Brees -- now saying the QB deserves a 2nd chance ... just days after blasting the NFL star on national TV.

Remember, Sharpe called for Brees to retire and walk away from pro football forever on his FS1 show "Undisputed" after Drew condemned NFL kneelers during an interview with Yahoo Finance.

"It wasn't what he said," Sharpe said Thursday ... "it was how he said it. He was defiant. I will NEVER respect the man."

But, after Sharpe went scorched-earth on Drew, the QB picked up the phone and talked things out with Shannon ... and apparently, he made a real impact.

Shannon says Drew understood he messed up -- and has vowed to educate himself on the topic so he can try and redeem himself.

Sharpe says he lectured Drew on why the protest is NOT about disrespecting the military -- but rather putting a spotlight on police brutality and racial injustice in America.

On Monday's "Undisputed," Sharpe says he's now in Drew's corner -- and hopes he makes the best of this second chance.

This is what I had hoped would happen, glad people are cooling off and not acting out of anger so much. With social media society and public opinion is now happening in real time. Just as an individual goes through stages of grief so does society as a whole now. Collective knee jerk reactions and society speaking and acting out of anger as a whole.
Even the government has adopted this knee jerk reaction plan of action. Let’s just dissolve the police department and privatize it without any infrastructure or plan of transition. Yea that will work.

Well, you ain’t gonna please everyone. And why African scarfs like black folks just got here? To be quite honest I hate the term African American. My family has been here for over seven generations as most other black folks have.

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.

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.
