What I dont understand is why fans don't pepper them with cans & beer bottles when they do that chit. Fan culture in the US seems so soft compared to Europe (which is weird because Americans in general are more alpha/patriotic compared to Euro brahs)

because we live in a police state surrounded by livefeed video cameras and if you did something like that youd be arrested for assualt.

I'm not really offended but i do think the whole thing is stupid as f*ck. the media is lapping it up, and is doing an excellent job of creating divide in the country because some people think it is a good protest and others think it is offensive.

Long story short, I was outside a bowling alley smoking then all of a sudden ton of cops car swarm the parking lots. Apparently they got a call that some asian gangsters attacked someone with a knife and had weapons. the people outside with me ( i didn't know them) were the one that the police were targeting but i happen to be asian and outside with them so yeah, had several cops draw weapons on me.

**** was scary as **** and it happen so fast. In mere seconds cops had the entire place locked down. told everyone to get on the ground slowly then They cuffed me and every one that looked like an asian banger (lmao racism)

after what appears to be hours of questioning they let me go and i got the **** outta there.


I ain't mad. cops risk their lives on a daily basis. Recently a female cop got shot in the face during a regular traffic stop. Stories like that reminds me that they are constantly on edge. Be respectful to them and they'll show you respect as well.

There's a difference in being offended and disagreeing with something. Americans have a constitutional right to protest. I do not personally agree with the reasons for the protest because statistically it is hard to build a case that african americans are being harmed by police more than any other race. For example, African Americans represent a large majority of murders(>50%) in this country yet the absolute value of murders committed by police towards black people is significantly lower than the amount committed by police towards white people. It is stupid to deny that individual acts of racism occur, but i do not believe that american police are inherently racist.

I disagree but it's their right. I think ****n Kaepernick's original idea has turned into something else. Mostly a anti-Trump sentiment. But why was everyone in the NFL upset when Tebow took a knee in prayer? Seems like double standards
