Pence is a disgrace, leaving an NFL game after players making their protest.

Blacks in America, as in the African Americans, they certainly should have the right to protest against the human rights abuse that is being done to them.

That's it.  Nanny Kelly needs to turn off little Donnie's internet access since he's proven he can't use it responsibly.

Season 1, Episode 'Taking the Knee' in 'The Towers of Trump' TV Series is over. As you recall, Kaepernick  is still not in the NFL, no policies were made to change the lives of minorities, no polices were changed in the NFL accept the anthem is no longer televised during games, and we still don't know the meaning of the anthem. Where have you been, we are on Episode ' The Mad Hatter', with continuing story arcs of rescinding DACA, pulling Obamacare subsidies, and he's still lurking, 'Rocket Man'. I want to see 'Rocket Man' in a Frederica Wilson 'dollar store' cowgirl hat.

African Americans can protest as can Vice Presidents.  No one with even half a brain has said any different.

"Trump continued his attack on the NFL calling their patriotism in question. Trump attempted to buy the Buffalo Bills in 2014 and was denied entrance into the exclusive boys club. The other stunningly obvious reason for his war on football is his unmitigated bigotry and that of his supporters. Trump is playing the race card by inflaming the emotions of his bigoted base, who are wholly threatened by the concept of wealthy men of color fighting for change"

It's probably wise to remember that many of the NFL players have very fleeting fame.   They may make good money when they play, but some of those careers are very short lived and most fade into obscurity quickly.
