Your family isn’t a football team at a Federally funded military academy.

Not in public institutions you shouldn’t be able too. The 1st amendment in regards to religion is weakly enforced enough with allowing this bullshit. . .

Scouts say Reid has great quick-twitch muscle, and Lane is a natural athelete. The scouts are split on Kaepernick, some saying he athletically gifted, some believing he is a student of the game. All agree he was raised a grinder.

I wish men would stop saying this. We don’t have value because of our relationships with men - we are people with worth no matter whether we’re related to you or not. Instead of thinking, “what if this happened to my wife/sister/mother/daughter” try thinking “what if this happened to me.” Because that is what we think…

The NFL is bottom line driven, morally bankrupt, billionaires boys club where they have shown they will bend/break any of their own rules if it suits their immediate purpose. I know we all know this, I just wanted to type it out and add to your list that last year, while Manziel was currently under investigation for…

Same here — I stopped watching the NFL two years ago as well (although as a life-long Lions fan, many might argue that I was preventing my own psychological damage by walking away from the league). The concussion issue was what got me feeling guilty at first, but the last season I was still watching, I started…

And they succeeded! They not only got me to stop watching this stupid, shitty game, but I now actively loathe the institution and its fans. And this is coming from someone who was born on a reservation but wore a Washington jacket for the entirety of grade school. They’ve helped me come a long way, baby.

It’s his method of action that I take exception to

So, with caveat that very few of the people in this whole mess deserve to be defended on their own personal merits...

Both major parties are two sides of the same white supremacist coin.

She was unique in taking an active role pushing her husband’s policies as Secretary of State and supported many of these policies as Senator.

He's making the point that while Hillary is allowed to make a stupid mistake and face no consequences, if black youth do something much more minor like smoke weed, they can face years in prison. And you know who supported those mandatory minimums? Hillary Clinton.

Considering Hillary has and continues to use her husband’s presidency as a positive for her “experience”she should take on the negative like the mass incarceration. You can’t pick and choose which parts you want to be a part of when you use that administration’s time in office as a foundation for your own political…

Considering Hillary Clinton’s husband was the one who signed the legislation that led to a generation of mass-incarceration and proudly gutted social services in the name of ending “welfare as we know it,” there is every reason to be dubious of Clinton’s commitment to improving the lot of minority communities in this…

“But this bullshit equivocation of Democrats as equally guilty for this ongoing police state is laughable to people who have been paying attention to the political landscape for the last forty years.”

Conservatives on big government: “I made this money with my own hard work, I didn’t need the government’s help.”

I use a similar “come on, man...” and, you’re right, it let’s them know where I stand without me being aggressive towards them and allows them to engage in whatever way they see fit. It works pretty well, so far.

I have found a “Dude, what the fuck?” to be a solid opening line right after the comment. Then it’s up to the other person to decide how confrontational they want to make it.

Huh? Drop your friend. They prioritize their own romantic wish fulfillment fantasies over the well-being of others. Homophobes gonna homophobe, but peer-pressure out to force them to homophobe alone.

Definitely call him out on it. Life's too short to hang out with asshole people.
