The more they make....the more they fire.
Maybe consider taking 150 or 200 million killing devices off the street.
The people hanging their hats on 2nd Amendment rights are "dead" wrong.
There are too many people out there willing to pull a trigger and way too many triggers waiting to be pulled.
Stand Up!

Wait I'm confused are you saying have the people who own guns legally turn their guns in because this will cause the people who have guns Illegally not to use their guns. Wut ?
There are certainly incidents of injustice and those need to be handled fairly (both black and white), but recent incidents (e.g. Milwaukee) proves that some people just want an excuse to riot and assault innocent people by expressing their racism. At this point, as a pretty far left liberal, I've come to the conclusion that there are a lot of misguided people in this movement and they are setting back race relations with each subsequent step they take. Basing actions on emotion is never a good thing, but yet this movement is consistently allowed to do it over and over again without any real condemnation. It will stop eventually and those of us whom really want peace and equality will have to clean up their mess.
Now in regards to Colin Kaepernick.....I never liked this idiot. He, over the years, has been nothing but a grandstanding, overpaid, cry baby. In his interviews I liken him to the dumbest frat boys I can remember in college. His actions now are nothing to support as we must remember whom is doing this action.
How will you take my guns? You'll send armed men in costumes to my house, with guns...
These people are nothing more than animals, who'll use any sort of violence in any situation. Just look at Milwaukee. A guy points a gun at a cop, the cop shoots him, and the animals that are supposedly "oppressed" start rioting before they even know the whole story.
Confiscating guns will do nothing to cure the problem, the animals will use another means to kill each other.
That is extremely racist, this is the issue with race relations right here. Calling a group of people animals? What makes you think that is ok? When the KKK were hanging people in the streets, that was animalistic, but I'd never refer to all whites as animals as you just did...
I truly empathize with victims of police brutality (no one wants this), especially when someone is wrongfully killed but at the same time, Ferguson, MO was destroyed based on a lie so it's hard to take these dumbarses seriously. Obama and his army of communists and racists are doing their best to stoke racial unrest, only problem is that it's manufactured to a large degree...it had to piss him off when the Olympics and her patriotism rolled around, right when they were trying to get momentum (DOH!/haha), underscoring that what's good for America is bad for democrats and vice versa. Political correctness's best days are behind and it can eff off.

He nothing to do with race, fool. It's only racist because the group I'm referring to happens to be black. If it were a group of white people, and I called them animals because they were burning down the town, you'd find no issue with it.
Act like animals and get called animals... Because normal humans don't act the way they do... Don't like it then they should open a book and rid their community of rap culture...

The name calling is unnecessary, lets keep things civil. Saying THEY as a collective group puts everyone in the same race into a bucket, thus you're judging an entire race based on a select few. This is an issue, and if you fail to see that, then there is nothing anyone can do to help.
Wrong again. The term "they" refers to the group of people that is pillaging their own town, not the race as a whole. Once again, if it were white people nobody would have issue with what I'm saying.
Far more whites, per capita, are victims of police brutality.
Everyone is a victim of police brutality. The need for some groups to act as if they own that problem is ridiculous. I've never seen the country take a step back like it has with race relations, it's ridiculous. We have a whole team of players who get along and work together. It's clear that certain political groups wish to change that for political gain.
Bingo!! I won't own a gun until the government tells me I can't have one.
Why give that 49er knothead any pub? He isn't smart enough or talented enough to deserve it.
I disagree. He knows he is going to get cut and realizes this may be his last chance to take a public stand. (pun intended)
He showed up to a press conference with a Castro shirt on. He lost all remaining credibility by doing so.
I'm thinking these idiots that seemingly want communism, should be allowed to have it. We can create an area that is strictly communism for them and let them have it.
White people: "Black people should protest peacefully!"
*Black man sits quietly during National Anthem*
White people: "No, not like that!"

What does the 2nd amendment have to do with Colin Kapernik not standing for the National anthem?
Your a typical libtard that can't even follow a simple conversation and turn into your agenda.
Or your just stupid and are getting your 1st and 2nd amendments confused.

Pretty sure, we he said they, he was referring to the looters and rioters and shooters. Are YOU making the statement all the looters and rioters were black? See how looking for racism in every little word kind of makes YOU look racist?
^^^THIS. He won't stand and respect a flag that he thinks represents oppression and then wears THAT shirt. You are right, credibility thrown right out the window.
Nobody will look at the much bigger problem, more accurately, the main problem which is the self genocide taking place everyday for years and years. Take a wild guess what the number one threat to a young black male is.
This has nothing to do with the Second Amendment, Lib.
Think about that number you just put up. If guns were the problem and your narrative that gun owners are a problem, you would have tens of thousands of people shot and killed everyday. The facts don't back up your statements and they sure as hell won't push your agenda.

This is a very interesting perspective on this. I had not looked at it like this before. Looking at things from all different perspectives is important when trying to solve conflict, and many people only want to look at it from their own. Thanks for the food for thought.
Are you for real?
You are right, people of every race have been the victim of police brutality. I am a white person living in a major metropolitan area known for high crime rates...and police brutality and corruption. I have been harassed by the police and I have (white) family members who have been victims of police brutality when no crime had been committed. And I agree, it is never okay no matter what race the victim is. We have a serious problem and it impacts us all (by the way, I do not believe that all police officers are violent, hate-mongering idiots nor am I supporting Colin Kapernick).
HOWEVER, the fact is (not my opinion) that Blacks/African Americans are disproportionately targeted by police (both verbal and physical harassment). I have witnessed police yell racial slurs at Black people who are simply walking down the street. I am, also, a researcher and I can tell you that there is overwhelming empirical evidence showing that minorities and, especially Blacks, are disproportionately targeted by police even though they are no more likely to have committed any crime. I could barrage this board with articles, but I won't no one wants that. But below is a citation from a national study, just to illustrate my point.
Engel, R. S., & Calnon, J. M. (2004). Examining the influence of drivers' characteristics during traffic stops with police: Results from a national survey. Justice Quarterly, 21(1), 49-90.
Racism exists and it is insidious. It damages us all. To deny it is not only wrong-headed, but it contributes directly to increasingly hostile race-relations.
Before you start talking disparaging about liberals in academia having some sort of communist agenda (I have lurked long enough on this site to know that for some this is seen as an acceptable rebuttal to anything they disagree with), half of the research in this area is conducted by government (federal, city etc.) agencies who are, on average, centrists or even right-leaning. Racism is not some fiction created by "the left" to destroy America.
This is my first post on this board, I usually ignore the political banter-- everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the existence of racism is not matter of a opinion it is a fact.
Now, I am going to step off my soapbox.
I came to this site as a Hawkeye fan, not to engage in off-topic arguments.
I'm sick of this "freedom of speech" "it's his right garbage".
If they're going to play the national anthem all players should be REQUIRED to stand.
People making $8/hour are required to follow their employers rules. Why should folks making MILLIONS a year not be required to do the same?! Ridiculous....
So no non-white Americans could think it is BS? No asian/latin/middle eastern etc that is proud to be American can find that offensive? Only white people can have a problem with it? Only white people can find these idiotic riots to be idiotic? I know many "white/black/brown/yellow" people that find it pathetic! What a joke....

STFU...I'm so sick of this white black BS.

I don't like the fact that he has chosen to sit during the anthem but I will fiercely defend his right to do it.
ITS BLACK NOT AFRICAN AMERICAN!!!
Do you not include hatians, jamacians, cubans etc? Can cops tell by look that one is cuban and not african? Or do you think cubans, hatians etc don't mind being called "african"? Even if their roots can be traced to africa 100s of years ago I bet most still consider themselves to hatian etc......
What about a white person born in africa that moved here later? Do police realize they are African?
Will you defend all americans to do as they please at work w/o fear of being fired?
My personal belief is that if a group of people are killing each other indiscriminately, then I would agree they are animals. The color of that group to me does not matter. When the KKK were stringing up blacks for just being black, then they were animals as well. Color should not matter. Most of the people in this country are responsible gun owners, its the criminals who create the problems with them, and they are not going to give up their guns if the second amendment is overturned and guns are taken from the responsible folks. That would just ensure that the crime rate would explode in this country. Not to mention that trying to confiscate guns would probably lead to the next civil war. And, coming from a Niners fan, Kaepernick is a douche.

Are you for real?! You've witnessed police brutality, harassment and you heard officers yell racial slurs, I doubt it! Your first post insinuates LE as thugs and the bad guys. 99.9% of all cops do it the right way, a job I'm sure you don't or couldn't do. You want to point fingers, put on the uniform! LE deals with the worst people in the worst situations thousands of times every day and handles them with no fanfare. Every race is confrontational far more today then just 5 years ago, singling out one race is ridiculous. Nothing is a 100% there will be instances where it doesn't look good to the public, but that certainly doesn't mean officers did anything wrong, but sometimes it happens. LE targets criminals, they don't care what the race, religion or where they live! They do it to protect the 98% of law biding citizens victimized every day.
