“I basically said ‘Americans are dying no matter the color of their skin. Americans are dying.’ I also said ‘courage is what it takes to stand up and fight, not kneel or raise the fist during the National Anthem.’ I got a lot of backlash.

The comment I saw the most was, ‘How can you speak about courage and stand up and fight when you got a bad conduct discharge from the United States Marine Corps. I’d like to address that first off. That was 18 years ago. I was 18 years old, went straight into the United States Marine Corps bootcamp out in San Diego, California. I graduated bootcamp with a meritorious promotion, went on tot he school of infantry where I was a squad leader and a guide. When I went to the fleet, and I’m not here to talk about all the negative things I saw that made me come to this realization, but there were things that I wasn’t happy seeing and wasn’t proud being a part of. What I realized was, I didn’t have the courage to die for my country.

But, knowing that about myself, I saw in many of the other men and women that I was down there with, young men and women, you could see in their eyes that they were of that patriotic spirit where they would put their life on the line for this country. That’s courage right there. Now here we are 18 years later and a lot of these men and women served their country well. Some of them might have lost their lives. Some of them might have come home paralyzed from the waist down, the neck down, amputees, unable to make love to their spouses. Unable to go swimming with their children, unable to walk the dog or take their kids to the park. Depression, different types of mental illness from all the stress they went through. That’s sacrifice right there and the sacrifice that their families gave for them to either die or be brutally hurt for their country, that’s why I think you should stand up for the flag.

Taking a knee, listen, everyone has their right to their opinion and I do believe that. I respect everybody else’s opinion. And all these comments I read, I went through them and a few of them I kind of laughed at, but nonetheless, they’re opinions. That’s my stance.”

Of course all these people ignore WHY people are kneeling. :martin:

It's about people constantly praising this country as great while your own citizens get unjustly killed by the police with no consequences.

Let's not even go into all the veterans who come back mentally scarred for life and/or end up homeless.

This country is all talk when it comes to showing appreciation for those who served.

It's mind boggling how he can ignore the veterans that actually supports Colin's gesture, ignore why he's kneeling in the first place and make it about the flag. While supporting Trump who constantly says that America isn't great. It just goes to show the extent to which people will go to downplay what black people go through over there in the US.

About 11% of the adult homeless population are veterans
45% of all homeless veterans are African American or Hispanic, despite only accounting for 10.4% and 3.4% of the U.S. veteran population, respectively.
But let this privileged guy who got discharged from the military tell you what it is

That whole respecting his stance but not liking how he did it thing is such bullshyt. We're maybe 6 weeks into this national discussion, and these scum are still putting a symbol over actual social injustices. A flag that you can buy for less than ten bucks is worth more than people's lives to these dummies

Listened to the Booker T interview. He went from saying that 'All Lives Matter' shyt on his Twitter to saying 'I respect his stance but I don't like how he protested'...backtracking like a fakkit. Its still fukk Orton over here.

You weren't respecting his stance a couple of days ago. Don't backtrack now

What I want to know is where's Enzo and Cass? For two dudes that owe their entire careers to Black people, Smacktalk & Skywalk awfully quiet.

maybe not big cass, but enzo is a certified wigger.. he has a tattoo of the wu tang logo, collects jordans and comes to the ring with an mmg chain on:camby:
he always references something from a rap song in his promos too and shmoney dances/does the running man challenge every week.. not to mention he calls himself a certified G

if he can take shyt from our culture to get himself over but can't speak up for the problems we face then fukk that cac too

Ya'll gon learn about these "down" cacs :ufdup:
