SleeperCards doesn't seem interested.

You can't be against oppression and then go out and wear a shirt with Fidel Castro on it. Doesn't work that way.

If the message was the most important thing, no one would've cared about the Pats' kicker's Three Percenters Tattoo. There's nothing 'bad' about their message itself.

I gave him a new life, things to do, and battles to win, but he seldom “brought home the bacon”. I didn’t like his “leadership” style or much else about him, and many others agree. Glad he is gone!

That and the whole "elected president" thing, but who's keeping track.

You two comrades and your appreciation of cheating and denial.

That's right, Russian agents escorted me to the polls and made me vote for Trump. You are one weak minded sorry excuse for a troll.

My reasoning is if you can link people getting shot and dying (which I have absolutely no problem with BTW) then foul language shouldn't be an issue, but America is strange with their standards. People being be killed, meh. Show a female nipple or say a naughty word and people get upset.

NSFW Language, there's a longer version somewhere.

Ridiculous hive mind mentality.

Turning into that episode of The Orville pretty darn quickly.

I'm a Third Party guy. Lock'em all up—the right, the left, and the media.

I'd love to see all the things you're saying.

Brees and Kaepernick should have an old school steel cage match.

Winner gets to QB the Saints in 2020 and the loser gets banned from social media/ever speaking again and has to officially retire from the NFL.

He is very deservingly being put through the ringer, but I think if he felt pressure to retire that's silly.

His comments were extremely tone-deaf, and he clearly needs to be educated more, because he doesn't get it. But he's not a racist or anything, he didn't beat up a woman, he didn't kill someone, he just should've not said anything.

You'd think there isn't anything besides 'adamantly for', or 'adamantly against'.

The best thing to do is not say anything. It's a risk if you say anything.

Actually, no. Staying silent is now also bad.

Or you could be MLB and only say something after public pressure.

I don't understand why there is this need for EVERYONE to say something. It's such a weird cultural thing. Like, if you don't say something then you are a bad person that thinks black lives don't matter? There have been a lot of touching things said by lots of people, but some are just clearly a PR piece to look good (or not look bad, and I'm talking about the NFL, 49ers, etc)

Hitler wasn't a very religious person, he didn't really care for any of them, I though most people knew that.

There was media/social media outcry around Pittsburgh that Mike Tomlin and Sidney Crosby hadn’t put our “official messages” as of yesterday afternoon.

Mike Tomlin, one of the biggest promoters of minority coaches in the NFL, the HC of the most progressive franchises in the NFL.

And a white Canadian who rarely even talks to the media on a good day, whose most controversial statement ever was “this ice water is too warm”.

What is wrong with people?

A lot, everywhere.

I don’t get Antifa. There’s nothing close to fascist happening in this country whether you like you some Trump or Obama. They should change their name to Antica, it’s more accurate and has just a nice of a ring to it.

Let's say that every single person, team, organization, etc. with access to social media put out a statement saying that they stand with Black Lives Matter. Would this make the cause stronger? Would this accomplish reform?

It's just "You're with Us, or you're against Us."
