Drew Brees ??‍♂️

Plus if you are really are against virtue signaling then you should definitely be against Brees and these fake, taxpayer funded nationalism displays before sporting events.

Over 700,000 cops and a handful of questionable death incidents involving blacks AND whites, I’d say is pretty good accountability. Get over the bs

Facts disagree that there isn’t an accountability problem.

Have you been asleep the past two weeks?

lol. the point being made that these are outlier events. nobody has ever kneeled when a cop gets abused or a white person, asian, indian, etc etc. this would carry more weight if that were the case. let alone the over the top vitriol and name hurling that comes with it. you cant force people to act peaceful thru violence and destruction. blacks do not hold the only card to victimization no matter the screaming.

Brees chickened out. Values don't change.

Cops kill over 1,000 Americans per year. Very rarely face any legal consequences.

Americans kill @ 100 cops per year. Most of them are killed in the spot and the rest get arrested, the crap kicked out of them, and then into the system.

Did you not know this?

True.

True. I am wrong on the accountability, wasn’t considering that concept. They do need to be held accountable but it’s not only blacks they harm. As well, everyone needs to be held accountable for the bullying and abuse. This is being slanted and bent out of proportion because the media is looking to divide people.

So Never whats his name thinks we are living in a time of *insane political correctness *. Same white men who object to PC as a hindrance to calling Blacks " nixxxers", women "bitcxs" and "cunxts", or Native Americans redskxxs. You still have a first amendment right to be obnoxious, insulting, or a genuine a-hole, but I much prefer a world of insane political correctness. And, yes, this thread has nothing to do with running.

Brees's endorsements, and even his career, must have been in huge jeopardy with his pro-flag comments. He's on full boat apology tour. Even got the wife involved. I'm not sure if "we" means just Drew and Brittany, or if she was using it on the "Royal We" and purporting to speak for all white people in America.

Drew Brees said the Right Thing, Most People agree with him, including Black People. Never Apologize when you are correct.

Should Nathan Hale have had to Apologize for saying My only regret is I have but One Life to give for my Country when he was about to be executed?

Of Course Not.

LOL....Most people, especially black people now know Drew Brees is a closed minded idiot. After all these years and he is still talking about a song and a flag. He lost all respect from black people.

All this talk from Drew about my family fought in wars for America....so what. Blacks fought in every war this country ever had. The first to die for America was a black man, Crispus Attucks. My great uncle fought in the Korean War and when he returned he was lynched while in his U.S. Army uniform in Alabama when visiting family. I don't ever want to hear that BS about the anthem...and my dad or grandfather served...so what! What does that mean? You are still racist as hell.

You wouldn't be saying that if it was you being murdered on a busy street in broad daylight by the police.

I would be upset because in the military they have protocols for pretty much everything. Protocol for the National Anthem Is standing at attention.

Most of us aren't in the military, and we are talking about the anthem played at games that don't have anything to do with the military. Kneeling has always been a sign of deeper respect than standing in a rating of human acts.

Exactly!!

It's fine that Brees thinks of his grandfathers who fought in WW2, during the national anthem, but it was an insult to his teammates to tell them how they should feel about the flag and the country.

After his comments, he spoke with a lot of people, heard some different perspectives and decided it was better to respect the opinions of his teammates. Seems like the right decision to me and he sounds sincere about his apology.

The story about Colin got the idea to kneel has been told a million times but these inbreds still pretend like they never heard it before. Bunker Boy says they are kneeling because they hate the troops and the flag......now Redneck AmeriKKKa regurgitates this nonsense. Sad

And meanwhile, your snarky azz won't say a thing about black on black murder.

23 dead just this past weekend in Chicago, alone... at a time of protest for a black man's murder by a cop. It's insanity to not do anything about it, and you're saying that its okay.

Once again and ignorant white person talking about black on black violence and the City of Chicago. For the millionth time, when a black person kills another black person they go to prison. The black victims family wants justice regardless of the killers race. When an UNARMED AFRICAN-AMERICAN IS MURDERED BY A WHITE POLICE OFFICER...rarely does the white police officers go to prison. Even when on video. This has been happening for centuries. As for Chicago, it has never ever led the nation in murder rates. You only mention Chicago because the lying racist orange crap in the white house has lied on President Obama for years and then he and Fox so called news wants to attempt to blast him because that is the town where he lived a good majority of his adult life in. Also news flash...white on white crime is virtually the same as black on black crime.

If you are really keeping score....how many blacks have died directly and indirectly due to whites in the western hemisphere since 1502. Untold tens of millions of blacks have been killed by whites, while only a minor percent of whites have been killed by blacks in the last 500 years.

He does not want to lose his job. Values do not change just because people are mad. Respect the Flag and what it stands for!
