Trump's cynical effort to hijack Kaepernick's message and morph it into a wedge issue worked perfectly on you. Kap and his kneeling colleagues picked the time and place to maximize eyeballs on their issue and knelt silently and legally (and kneeling is universally considered a gesture of reverence).

Your complaint rings like "Those uppity ni....rs should know their place" and shouldn't do anything that upsets white people's sensibilities when they protest racial injustice (as well as our Bigot-in-Chief's threatening and cynical comments). I guess you think they should protest at a time and in a place that will protect white folks from having to hear their message.

So, it's OK for GOP Congresscritters to take a moment of silence as their sole response to the Las Vegas massacre (instead of having a needed debate on gun laws), but it's not OK for black athletes to take a moment of silence to protest racial injustice (while the very same Congress fails to take necessary action on criminal justice reform)? It seems to me that the black athletes are the brave, patriotic ones and your GOP Congresscritters are the cowards.
