I think it's safe to say all those athletes you talk of actually do spend more than you on their communities. I am guessing. Maybe you spend more or what you can. You too OP. No judgement. But.... I am not black. So I dont understand what it is like to be black. My grandmother was not a slave. So I am going to just respect that these men need to express something so important to them in a peaceful manner. I dont watch the NFL for patriotism. I do my share for vets. I am not sure what standing at a sports event has to do with actually caring. Much respect.
