How does one dress like a thug?
Ok, so if someone accuses all white people of being racists, and treats them as such, using their phone and recording and calling them racist, your response would be that this white peoples fault? It's the fault of white racists?
Because I dont think I have EVER seen you take that stance on these boards.
After all, other races just dont make stereotypes out of thin air, right?

As far as effectiveness his knee was by far the most effective thing he did. Although it pissed off a bunch of white racists, the awareness brought to his cause, and subsequent donations from others to that cause, was more effective than any money donation he himself made.

:sigh:
Please show us how Kaep's kneeling 'pissed off a bunch of white racists', brought any significant awareness to his cause, or generated donations to that cause.....
it wasn't just white people and it wasn't specifically racists, firstly
....nor is it only whites that CAN be racist, for that matter
His cause was unjust violence by law enforcement against blacks....by mid-season 'kneelers' were about racism in general. Where were his generated donations going?
He generated tons of $ and awareness AND handled it all in a peaceful manner. It just helps show that no matter how people protest in this country they will be attacked by many. We hear this is because it isn't peaceful but the POTUS was going at CK all the same, it's always just about whining trying to kill the message.
I agree it isn't all white people and racists but those siding with them at the time and so on should probably reflect on why they got so made/vile and so on over someone protesting peacefully and if they understand how it is clearly different than looting/starting fires and so on. Why was there such a need to disrupt his message for their own politics?
well, it wasn't politics per se...it was more about how people view the proper way to handle themselves while the national anthem is being played...guess you could still call that politics. In my case, I didn't like it but my dislike wasn't strong enough to make a big issue about it...for me it was more the timing of it, but I understood why doing it at the end went against his message, too
POTUS said stupid **** constantly before 2016 and 'we' still elected him. He's continued to say stupid **** since taking office and still maintained a decent approval rating. These last few months he's continued to say even more stupid **** and has seen his approval rating rightfully take a hit. At this point 'I say stupid ****' should be one of his campaign slogans...........yet with all the stupid **** he says, the Dems are still throwing a guy like Biden out there as their best opponent.
It became political via the leaders like POTUS and there are polls that show drastic differences in party lines on the issue. I know he always does stupid things so the question is why does the Republican base support him at such a high rate? Once again the answer is he is pushing their beliefs just like he was in the CK instance. He got his first jump in approval when making the birthirism claims against Obama. He ran on building a wall and banning Muslims from entering for a period of time. I am not saying Biden is some great candidate but you can't ignore the type of rhetoric and so on the POTUS uses and that he is fueling his support with it.
