An Army recruit starts off with a salary under $20,000. Thousands of active duty military personnel are on food stamps. Millions of veterans rely on them to feed their families and themselves.
That’s how we treat the best of us. Here’s how we treat the worst of us.
An NFL rookie’s minimum salary is $465,000. And the majority of NFL players are usually bankrupt a few years after retirement because they blew through most of their money. Dozens of NFL players are arrested every year on charges ranging from murder to rape to animal abuse.
2017 was a banner year for the NFL with three times as many arrests as last year.
Along with the usual drunk driving and disorderly conduct arrests, there were 7 arrests for assault/battery, 6 for drugs and 5 for domestic violence.
The Seattle Seahawks announced that they weren’t going to “participate in the national anthem” because of the “injustice that has plagued people of color in this country”. While they lost that game, they are one of the top ranked teams in arrests. Alongside the Los Angeles Rams, the Green Bay Packers and the New York Jets, all of whom showed some solidarity with the anti-American protests, these top NFL criminal teams have racked up arrests for domestic violence, drugs, DUI and assault and battery.
It’s no wonder that so many of the NFL’s millionaire scumbags are eager to join Colin Kaepernick’s protests against the justice system by degrading our anthem.
It’s because they’re criminals.
And it’s no wonder that the NFL stands behind its thugs. If a team can shrug at abusing women, what’s a little anti-American tantrum by a prize property that makes them millions of dollars?
The only question is why are the rest of us subsidizing it?
NFL teams loot millions from taxpayers to fund their stadiums. The Seahawks have a point about injustice. And the injustice is that taxpayers had to spend $390 million on their stadium.
Who will let Washington taxpayers take a knee and opt out of being exploited by the Seahawks?
Ten New Orleans Saints players sat out the anthem. New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton expressed pride in the players who rejected the United States of America. The Saints not only enjoy a stadium paid for by a billion in taxpayer money in a city with one of the highest poverty rates in the country, but are exempt from sales tax. And receive millions every year in “inducement payments” to stay put.
Sweetheart deals like these are not uncommon. The NFL comes with a pass on property taxes (those are for little people) and taxes in general. Until 2015, the NFL was a non-profit. "Professional football leagues" was actually inserted into the Internal Revenue Code to provide a special non-profit status. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell got paid $44 million in one year. That made him the highest paid non-profit exec in the country.
The entire NFL is an illegal trust. It’s a monopoly that was illegally legalized by Congress.
That monopoly allows the NFL and its teams to cash in on television licensing and team gear. After the NFL uses its illegal monopoly to rip off broadcasters, ESPN rips off cable subscribers.
ESPN pays the NFL almost $2 billion a year. Even if you don’t watch ESPN, you’re paying $9 a month for it because of yet another illegal monopoly. If you subscribe to cable or live in a major city, the odds are good that your pocket is being picked by the millionaire racists “taking a knee” against America.
But the monopolies are dying.
ESPN is bleeding subscribers. The NFL’s anti-American turn is alienating fans. And cable is collapsing.
The NFL is built on government taking money from people and giving it to the industry. Its leftward tilt isn’t an accident. It’s a calculated move. Who are the folks most likely to bail out an industry? They’re on the left. Not the right. If your monopoly is dying, it’s time to go left and hate America.
Anthem bashing is popular with the left. And it’s very popular with the social justice bloggers who increasingly dominate sports journalism, and not just on ESPN. Hating America will score points with the left. It’ll buy the NFL more protectionism from the media and the 2020 Democrats.
The only question is why do we need the NFL?
Once upon a time there was a football free market. Multiple leagues competed with each other. And the NFL was just one of many. The NFL-AFL merger created a monster monopoly that has worked to crush any independent league through its control over broadcasting and venues.
That's what happened with the United States Football League which won an anti-trust court case against the NFL, but was forced under anyway.
The man at the center of the fight against the NFL was New Jersey Generals owner Donald Trump.
The illegal monopoly that created the NFL was the work of Senator Russell Long, the son of radical criminal Dem kingpin Huey Long, who illegally took over his father’s Senate seat (previously held by his mother) and spent almost four decades in the Senate with no qualification except his last name.
The NFL got a monopoly in exchange for New Orleans getting a franchise.
Congressman Hale Boggs, the corrupt Louisiana Dem boss who went to war with the FBI, got it through in the House by appealing, “The Republicans are out to get me. I need this to save me."
And Boggs held things up until he got assurances from the NFL commissioner that the franchise was in.
That’s the corrupt Democrat deal that created the NFL monopoly. Of course the NFL thinks the justice system is unfair. It was created by a crime and it’s full of criminals.
Before the anthem protests, the NFL was just one of the corrupt legacies of Democrat rule. It’s a reminder of the fact that social justice politics, whether it’s Obama’s “You Didn’t Build That” or Huey Long’s “Share Our Wealth”, is nothing more than organized thievery from the working class.
But the NFL is no longer just a corrupt monopoly. Instead it’s becoming a radical anti-American organization that uses its taxpayer-subsidized stadiums and monopoly broadcasting rights to spread hatred toward this country and disrespect to the soldiers who fought and died for it.
America could have tolerated the NFL’s corrupt thievery. But there’s no way Americans should be subsidizing this diseased leftover of Democrat corruption when it spews hate at the United States.
It’s time for the NFL’s anti-trust exemption to go the way of Ma Bell.
Break up the corrupt Democrat monopoly of the NFL and demolish the barriers to the formation of independent leagues by taking on the NFL, ESPN and its broadcasting partners in crime.
It’s time for the NFL to take a knee and for the free market to rise.
They were showing unity with players who feel that others, less fortunate than themselves and without voices, are being discriminated. The players who have knelt chose to be those people's voice.
They are trying to bring about police reform. They are trying to say stop shooting people. It is not okay to shoot people.
I will not ever take a knee during our anthem. I completely understand why others do.
Why aren't we asking the obvious question? how can we change so that these people will want to stand?
What kind of change in the Police are you looking for?
What about it? The Air Force Academy is an institution. It's imperative for the integrity of the Air Force to frown upon any racial remarks or behavior by their recruits. Police Academies have the same policy. The NFL probably has the same policy as well, but apparently they don't have a policy in regards to bringing political issues to work which is what Kaepernick did and what the whole league is doing right now. I am willing to bet none of those guys would play football on a Police Officers salary.

Anyone equating the military and law enforcement with NFL players/teams/staff .... needs to have their driver's license and voter registration cancelled. Not only on "salary" levels, but on community/nation SERVICE.

Keep whining bitches. You are as bad as the divider in chief.

You rate everything on monetary worth.
You don't? On a hooker board? Oh, yea, I forgot. You don't pay for pussy.
If I were you I wouldn't either, since you ain't worth much!
Media says sales are down about 20% this week, even with the NFL KneelingGate Summit trying to strike a "compromise," but I heard it's really around 30%.
Rather than help the "oppressed" I can anticipate the players/teams buying up the empty seats to maintain the Lie.

Trump isn't trying to divide this country, it's already divided, been that way for decades. The bottom line is Kaepernick stuck his two cents into something he has no first hand experience in and has no solution for, and Trump's statement sparked retaliation. Just goes to show this country hasn't made much progress in race relations. If it had, Kaepernick never would have opened up his mouth to begin with . The American Flag does not represent or is a symbol of racism or bigotry, people represent that and that's why racism exists.
Perhaps investing more in non lethal options might be appropriate.
I have noticed a lot of these incidents happen where one officer on the scene draws a taser, and the other a gun.
That sounds like a good setup as long as the suspect doesn't have a gun drawn. If he does, well he made his bed.
Train that setup better, though.
What's the point in one officer using non lethal if simultaneously the other uses lethal force? Kind of makes it pointless to use non lethal at all.
Why not see if the non lethal option stops the threat first?
Both have their weapons drawn. The threat will stop. If it doesn't stop, no one can say he or she wasn't warned.
Bad policing needs to be called out by good police. It should be okay to cross the blue line when someone's actions are unjust. Police are not infallible. Bad cops needs to be held accountable.
The NFL receives tax money and incentives they are therefore not a private organization. Huh?
That's what you're going with, here?
Since the tax payers foot the bill for damn near all their stadiums, then YES i don't see how they can claim to still be a private org.

As a 20 yr naval vet, i DO see it as disrespecting the flag..
Just like that idiot who TOOK a knee at the tomb of the unknown soldier DURING Taps..

What facts (FACTS ... not Opinions) can you present that PROVES what you just posted is NOT BEING DONE.
Keep in mind there are approximately 500,000 to 600,000 law enforcement officers on regular, "active duty" in this country.
Also, keep in mind THE SOURCE of what FACTS you allege TO PROVE what you are attempting to support.
Caveat: By asking the question(s) I am in now way acknowledging and/or agreeing that the "NFL Protest" has anything to do with "police oppression of Black people or "people of color (what ever the fuck that means)," because I do not believe the "NFL Protest" does. But that's an issue to set aside for the moment to discuss later, if necessary.
It's the lib-retards who are dividing this nation.
This is the bitch that claimed that Dr. Seuss' -- who was a dim-retard supporter of FDR -- books project racist stereotypes when Melania Trump made a donation of Seuss books.
And the lame-stream media echo chamber picked up on the story and amplified it, but ... ooops!!! ... their hypocrisy is once again exposed.
I wonder if those red and white stockings are "thigh highs"! That would look hot with her sliding her tongue up and down my cock before she takes the whole thing down for the count for CIM WITH SWALLOW!

Police reform is constantly being upgraded mainly due to the fact there has been so much controversy in the How, when and Why Police use force. Police Depts all over the country have implemented non lethal means such as Pepper spray, Tasers, expandable Batons and Bean Bag Shot guns. All this in conjunction with their issued sidearm which of course is lethal. In my opinion secondary weapons in the course of a Patrol Officers duties complicates the "Use of Force Continuum" Officers go through In Service Training throughout their careers and many Dept. post special schools outside of their Department for Officers to apply for. Now you stated you've seen videos of one officer training a Taser on a suspect and another with his sidearm drawn. The reason that might be is Tasers have been known to malfunction and their has been suspects who have not been subdued by the Taser. The link below is an entertaining video but it does prove a point that it is possible to resist the affects of a Taser. Just avoid all the other parts of the video and jump to tape marker 5:00.
