There really are other ways.. as past protest and movements didn't involve Pro Athletes kneeling, but actually talking to be heard.Originally posted by Afrikan:Originally posted by 49AllTheTime:+ Show all quotes they made their point got their awareness heard..time to take another/different step toward progress. i mean if they do get signed and kneel.. hows that going to change people for the second time ?
that was their plan. And I'm sure they would have stuck to it. but when you have the President instigating...and some owners making their own idiot comments...Still some Police Officers not being held accountable (black or white victims)
God knows what the future holds.... so if Teams are trying to give them an Ultimatum like YOU BETTER NOT EVER AGAIN!!! PINKY PROMISE????
well s**t, I'd be the same way. If I were a player...I wouldn't plan on kneeling, but if some crazy s**t happens in the next year or two... and no one is doing anything about it...if the media is not bringing awareness to it. I can't promise I won't do my part by peacefully protesting.
I don't think there is nothing wrong with that.
Yes... but that's what Kaepernick and Eric Reid have done. Kap has done more than just kneeling since this whole thing started.
Just because his vocal critics choose to not look into it... well that's their problem. Actually I doubt they really care.
