In addition the cop had already handcuffed the mans hands behind his back so no need to kneel on his neck at all. |

This American wasn't outraged about that but I did sigh. A football game is all about football and not a venue for any kind of protest, imo. It's entertainment for many. Time to take a break from issues and just relax. Let them all protest on their own time but for a game let's just have a football game, for God's sake. And in reality, when players did that it was only during the national anthem - no big deal really. What annoys the hell out of me then and still to this day is all the crappy singers singing the national anthem in their own personal way. Note: for a constant example, tune in to NBC World News at 3:58 each weekday morning. It's a pitiful mess almost every day. IMO, national anthem should be played by a full band that uses the sheet music and only the proper notes and tempo as it was originally written. > When a knee is bent on a black guy, > they ain't got nothing to say. That's an entirely different knee bend - apples and oranges And from what I've seen lately, MANY Americans have something to say about that. Black and white. |

When a knee is bent on a black guy, they ain't got nothing to say. That's just bent. This kind of thing happens often enough that you'd think the cops would be given extra training on how not to kill people in this manner. My daughter's friend's brother was killed in this manner. I wasn't there but I suppose it usually plays out in a similar manner - the perp is subdued on the ground with the cop's weight on his chest or neck. The guy on the ground will be saying that he can't breath, the people in the area yelling that the guy can't breath, the cops ignoring all the pleas to let up because they're killing him, the people in the area screaming for the cops to stop, the perp on the ground falls unconscious and unresponsive. Then the guy dies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxUQATD6Ezs === :((((( |

So free speech it great stuff except when it interferes with your mindless enjoyment of entertainment. Gotcha. What better place for Kaepernick to protest the needless and thoughtless deaths of black people than on national television? If you want to draw attention to systemic racism you could hardly find a more effective way. Cindy Hamilton |

Interesting comment- when these things happen , they get covered by news and as is way too common and horrifying to see these days, captured on cell video and they go viral. I have seen an awful lot of video of cops killing blacks. One video is too many to have burned in one's memory, but this happens with great frequency. You should acknowledge it. Want me to get you a nice fat list of them? Had your coffee yet? Resisting arrest? BULLSHIT. Really. Racist bullshit.

Cops and child molestors often get protected incarceration. They could sentence this fired cop to only one week in a prison and put him into "general population" and he wouldn't live more than a few days. His dead body would get released before his week was up. Saw a funny in my newspaper many years ago. Some guy in New York City mugged a priest and an old lady. Roughed them both up and stole the woman's purse. He got caught very quickly. Once arrested, he was very arrogant about it all during questioning. He had a long history of petty crime arrests, and a short jail sentence didn't bother him at all. Then the cops informed him just who is victims were. Priest was John Gotti's brother and the woman was his mother. The bad guy shut up and visibly paled. He knew he was a dead man. At that time, John Gotti was NYC's Godfather of the criminal mafia organization. |

I don't know anything about football (and don't wish to) but I know his name and respect what he didn't stand for. Dave cranked on about him being super rich etc, I don't see where that really makes a difference. It was probably more risky for him to do it. |

Gotcha. Give me a break, Cindy. BTW, condolences to your husband that has to live with you. Your constant "devil's advocate" responses are getting old. You DO seem to have issues.

Conjecture: Saturday was the previous pay period; Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday were the current pay period. Perhaps he does work the same days every week and it will be Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday all the time, while that initial Saturday was a one-time thing. I'm sure he'll keep us posted every time he works a shift. Who wants to volunteer to track his time? Cindy Hamilton |

I started on one of those when David died I knew he had paid about $2,000 for it and my Scottish side demanded I find out how to put it to use :) I still have a box of floppy disks, I think it's Best Buy that has an adapter that can be placed like an external HD or CD drive, might be fun to get one and see what's on them after all these years. |

Perhaps veterans might talk about those days with other vets but not so much with civilians. I've never been in the military (came very close once) but I've always been a strong supporter of our military. I've known so many veterans and many active military and none have ever steered a conversation to their military life. Most never even mention it unless you ask a direct question. |

Maybe to impress you. The men I know who served in the wartime military never steer their conversation that way around me, and I know quite a few. I can listen quietly when two are recounting their experiences to each other from afar. I have no right to join the conversation. Well...one friend who served on a swift boat told me of a time he fell overboard in the Tonkin Gulf and treaded water for forty five minutes until the boat came back. I have another friend that served on one and has never told me squat. leo === My husband served in many wars and conflicts.
