You should check your sources to make sure you aren’t being fed the wrong info. It wasn’t a girl it was his ex-GF and domestic violence cases aren’t cut and dry all the time. Not trying to defend someone accused of sexual assault, but no gun priors and shot in the back 7 times while his three kids were watching?
Here’s a fact to consider, Blake’s attempted murderers are still walking around as are Breonna Taylor’s actual murderers. Did anyone shoot Dylann Roof after he killed 9 innocent people in a church, of course not, he’s white, the police officers fed him Burger King instead. What if Dylann Roof were black and shot up a predominately white church? Would he have been given a burger or shot dead?
You are right assholes come in all colors. But the truth is sometimes that color is blue and we have the ability to punish those who break the law if we support real change.
We are talking about justice for all. Why propose a moment of silence for 9/11 first responders but not acknowledge victims of another tragedy that is happening right now that has no real change in motion yet? Sometimes we don’t want to hear something but that’s because we aren’t willing to listen. Rather than chastise the players for using their platform, just take a minute to understand we could all get along better if we just supported equality. Is that a horrible message to get behind? If you do that you may realize that in the end you may end up on the right side of history. When these black players take off their uniform and helmet, the system treats them no differently. Sadly that means that they aren’t treated the same as white players.
I started out convinced I didn’t want politics in my sports too. Then it occurred to me that this isn’t about politics or the flag, it’s about human decency. The flag I took an oath to support and defend today does not stand for the same freedoms to every American that I am afforded. Just like Drew Brees, now I’m willing to listen and I want change. I fought for someone’s right to kneel and seek a more perfect union and right now, we are far from perfect.
While I disagree with some thoughts, I can agree that I think you will really like that Wolf Grey. It looks good on the
Stinger and I’m sure will look stunning on your Telluride.
