ATHLETIC ASSHOLES

[Blindgreed1]

I've seen all the hoopla about Colin's choice to protest systematic black oppression by sitting out the national anthem.

I wouldn't sit out the pledge or the anthem as a form of protest, especially on the job, because the reason I sometimes protest social issues is because I love my country.

But, it's his choice and it doesn't offend me. He's managed to get a lot of attention and opportunities to express his opposition. I don't know whether what he's saying and how he's saying it will make an impact, but I don't blame him for trying.

What does he know about black oppression? He's half white and was raised by two white parents in suburbia.
