Here again is Bennett explaining why he took a seat:

“First of all I want to make sure people understand I love the military — my father was in the military,” Bennett said. “I love hot dogs like any other American. I love football like any other American. But I don’t love segregation, I don’t love riots, I don’t love oppression. I don’t love gender slander.

“I just want to see people have the equality that they deserve and I want to be able to use this platform to continuously push the message and keep finding out how unselfish we can be in society, how we can continuously love one another and understand that people are different. And just because people are different doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t like them. Just because they don’t eat what you eat, just because they don’t pray to the same God you pray to doesn’t mean you should hate them. Whether it is Muslim, whether it is Buddhist, whether it is Christianity, I just want people to understand that no matter what, we need to stay together. It’s more about being a human being at this point.”

Bennett’s message is in favor of peace and equality. Who exactly is on the other side of this divide Lynch is talking about? Is the implication that he will alienate teammates and fans who … don’t think peace and equality are a good thing?

The most frustrating thing about the whole conversation that Colin Kaepernick started last year has been people like Lynch willfully misunderstanding the message players like Kaepernick and Bennett are trying to send. First the talking point was that kneeling for the anthem is somehow disrespectful of the military—what the fuck do the troops have to do with football in the first place?—and now it’s that kneeling will somehow divide the locker room. Who is being divided, though, and from what?

That is just stupid. I agree the military has nothing to do football(other than the fact that military academies play college football). But these guys aren’t protesting football, they are protesting the national anthem. And you know what? fuck whatever message Kaepernick and Bennett are trying to say. When you send a message, no matter how good, just, and/or right, in such a shitty way, don’t expect me to listen to it. And of course peace and equality are good things. True, this alienates teammates and fans that don’t think equality and peace are good things. I don’t give shit about people like that. This is going to alienate teammates and fans who are patriots, people who love this country. You want to protest what is going on in this country? Find another way, put “black lives matter” on your uniform or something. What are they going to do next? burn the flag?

“But I don’t love segregation, I don’t love riots, I don’t love oppression. I don’t love gender slander.” This is problem. He doesn’t understand that is country, its flag and its National Anthem does not stand for these things. They stand for the opposite. The American ideal is the direction opposite of those things. I agree our country has not lived up to the American ideal and still doesn’t and some ways. Many things needed to be fixed and still do. But this country, its flag and Nation Anthem stands for freedom, justice, fairness, equality and peace. While I agree it is their right to do so(and I wouldn’t want it any other way), I will never approve of protesting the national anthem. If that bothers/offends you, frankly, I don’t give a damn.

Huh, whatever happened to

I think there is a big difference between telling black people to shut up about what offends/bothers them, and simply disagreeing with them. Believe me, if I were disagree with an African American in regards to something that offends/bothers them, I would so as politely and as sensitively as I could. I would discuss the situation and choose my words very carefully. I’d also try to be as open minded as I could with them.

Because I’m a racist.

Because that is my opinion.

If something bothers/offends African Americans, I want to know it.

So you can say it shouldn’t?

So I that I can give whatever it is fair consideration and either agree or disagree.

I know of no sequel to Gone With the Wind. I know there is spoof book and miniseries sequel called Scarlett, but that is it.

Spoof book? It was authorized by Margaret Mitchell’s estate.

I didn’t know it was authorized by her estate. Still, there is big difference between something authorized by her estate, and something authorized by her, and a much difference than something written by her(I do realize both were impossible). Not to mention the miniseries didn’t star the same actors(I do realize that would have been impossible).

Only spoof I know of is Carol Burnett’s Went With The Wind sketch.

I never saw or heard of it, but it doesn’t surprise me that she did such as sketch.

true, but it is not same as “blackface”. With “blackface”, the intent was comedy via making fun of the the African American face. If I am not mistaken, while the Arabs were played by whites in makeup, the intend was to play them seriously and realistically, and not to make fun of the Arabs.

I don’t disagree. That’s why I put a question mark. Just answering why some might worry that it could cause offense.

And I just wanted to post because it is my pleasure.

I suppose it is possible, in world where a fantasy football auction involving both white and black players is thought to be offensive.

Goddamn pesky blacks telling white people what’s offensive! When will they learn to keep their mouths shut?

Just to be clear, I do not want African Americans to keep their mouths shut when it comes to something that offends them. Even with something like the fantasy football auction. I might disagree with them and say this really shouldn’t bother you imho, but I would never tell them to keep their mouths shut. If something bothers/offends African Americans, I want to know it.

Worth mentioning GWTW sports a G rating. Can’t get more inoffensive than that. 😛

I am surprised that GWTW has a G rating. There is violence in the movie. Adult subject matter discussed. There is a scene suggesting rape occurred. There is a famous scene where their are a whole lot of wounded people moaning and groaning. Horse is ridden to death in the movie. I think the n-word might be used in the movie, I can’t remember for certain. I am pretty certain another racial slur for African Americans, beginning with the letter d is used in the movie. Finally, there is the famous curse word at the end of the movie. I think this at least rates a PG rating.

It got a G rating in the early 70’s, which had not yet become a label for kiddie fare. The Planet of The Apes sequels got G ratings too, and have as much if not more violence.

weird.

You generally couldn’t curse in the movies in 1939, and an alternate version was contemplated, (can’t recall if they shot it) but they remained faithful to the book in the end. The motion picture production code office merely fined the producer and the sun came up the next day.

I know that there was talk about the line being changed to darn, but they decided against that. I agree with it, a man like Rhett Butler would not say darn in that situation.

You can say hell and damn in a G film. See Star Trek The Motion Picture.

That is rated G? Didn’t know that. I would have thought the transporter accident would have been enough to make it PG.

The N word is not said in the movie. David O Selznick actually toned down such things from the novel. I’m not sure it’s uttered in any movies made before the 1960’s.

I still pretty sure the racial slur starting with d was in the movie.

Well, I am sure a lot of historians know about him. I guess the first time I ever heard of the guy was from the movie 1776. At the beginning of the movie, everyone in congress wonders where the representatives from New Jersey are. A little bit later, 3 representatives from NJ arrive, announcing that the old delegation was recalled and new one sent in its place. One of the the three was Richard Stockton. The other two were John Witherspoon and Francis Hopkinson. It turned the royal governor of NJ(Ben Franklin’s son) was arrested and the new delegation was instructed to vote in favor of Independence.

I have. He a member of the 2nd Continental Congress from New Jersey. He is one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
