Nice. How does one “wail” in lower case text? Project much? Also, it’s not my message, I just don’t seem to have the difficulty understanding it that you seem to have.

WTF?
Yes, this is America. And if theise to MORONS want to invoke anyone that died, then they better remember that SUPPOSEDLY they all died for freedom. Not the freedom to do what some backwoods bigfoot approves of, but freedom to NOT do what some backwoods bigfoot motherfucker approves of.
If those two don’t like it, THEY can get the fuck out.
I think Trump is taking it so hard (gee that sounds dirty) because HE is the no balls having snowflake. Same goes for his pathetic fanboys who I THOUGHT were oh so tough and thick skinned and had no fear of “tellin’ it like it is”. Pussies.
Sorry you were disappointed, but perhaps it will console you to know how many gray hairs and nervous breakdowns the Pats inflicted on their fans with that game before Tom Terrific and team pulled off the win. :eek: 
In 1943, the Supreme Court ruled in West Virginia State Department of Education v Barnette:
The Court eloquently stated: “If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein.” To underscore its decision, the Supreme Court announced it on Flag Day.
That’s one that really pisses me off. I have always though Petty wasn’t such a southern redneck (for lack of a better term). He always came across much more unbiases than you would think. I like[d] him. Evertone did.
It’s like when I found Don Garlits was a bigoted asshole. I mean, Don Garlits? I know I don’t really know these celebrities, but still, to find out they as jerks is still off putting.
I doubt I’m the first person to think of the term, but I’ve come to think of the conservative equivalent of “snowflakes” as “soap bubbles” — they tend to pop when they come into contact with something solid. Like reality.
I often wonder if the sense of humor disappears* before* the authoritarian mindset petrifies, or after? A cause and defect relationship, maybe?
Huh?
I thought car racing was like horse racing, but with longer distances and fewer races per day. And cars instead of horses.
Or maybe the league thinks peaceful protesting is just fine and in keeping with American traditions (because it is). It’s nuts that peacefully protesting is pissing so many people off. How can they protest if not peacefully in this way?
I don’t think it even matters how the league feels. The rules of the NFL are (AFAIK) part of a collective bargaining agreement. It would be a violation of federal law to fire a player for conduct not prohibited by that agreement.
In the first place, one generally needs to experience something (such as being consistently wrong) before one can get tired of it. We haven’t (experienced it) so we haven’t (grown tired of it).
Additionally, for an American citizen, at least, it is far better to be a Trump-hater than an America-hater, as Trump himself is (and as I’m beginning to suspect, you may be).
Are you tired of winning yet?
He’s just trying to Make America Great. What’s wrong with that, why you hate America so much ?
Sunday was too beautiful a day to be indoors watching football. But, at 1 pm EST I posted a picture on Facebook of me and a bunch of friends “taking a knee”.
The picture is still generating discussion. I’d like to see more people joining in.
[nitpick]
I don’t think this is accurate. AFAIK, collective bargaining means that the law doesn’t really apply; what matters is what’s in the contract. So IIUC the scenario you outlined wouldn’t violate federal law, it would violate the contract that the two parties agreed upon.
I have had the NLRB tell me that the contract takes precedence over the law and there is no requirement that CBAs have to conform to all labor laws.
[/nitpick]
By the way, apparently what pissed off so many of the NFL players was the “son of a bitch” line; Trump insulting all their mothers was just too much for them.
Just more evidence that Trump is just an old senile man watching Fox News and ranting about whatever they bring up.
Though I want to thank Projammer for not popping in to be an ass and make fun of someone for making a new thread about Trump. Let’s see if that remains true.
Well, Trump sure put those uppity blacks on their knees, didn’t he.
Nobody misunderstands the kneeling. Well, except the Republican President, of course, but you have to budget for that.
This started with a black man boycotting the National Anthem trying to bring attention to the racial injustice of police killing black men and getting off scott-free. Conservatives are terrified of black men trying to address racial injustice so the Fox News crowd re-framed it as “Black man disrespects the Flag and Troops”.
If there’s any misunderstanding go on, it’s because conservatives are lying about the protests. But I guess we got to budget for that, too.
