Tulsa high school takes a knee

[Pstmstr]

Most kids praying before a game know why. Kids taking a knee just because its the latest protest method of entitled losers is not even close to the same thing. This liberal BS is what's wrong with America today. The little punks should be benched until they learn to respect America.

I would also say that player should not be forced to pray, that would piss me off personally regardless of my personal beliefs. I have equal disdain for being forced to pray or being punished because you do.

Oh, I concur fully. Was just giving my thoughts as to what another poster stated.

In all fairness @YukonGlocker generally tries to bring several sides of any story to the table to make ya think. Sometimes it makes me think, other times I fall flat on my face. My take is that he is simply saying kids are kneeling because that is what they see, know, are taught and want to be a part of. Kids that are praying are doing so for the same reasons. Either way, they are doing what they are taught, talk about, believe and have experienced. Grew up learning Russia/Cuba/China/Poland/South Africa were bad, their people were slaves to the government, they had no freedoms, etc. Army trained me for years to fight the U.S.S.R, later trained with the Polish Army, later fought beside the Polish Army. They were brought up that the USA was bad, had no freedoms and were slaves to the Government. All you know is what you are taught, until later in life when you can form your own opinions.

But I would agree with your greater point about fairness to YG, I would agree that he has moderated a great deal lately and will at least make a fair and reasonable argument at times, and doesn’t fire both barrels of unadulterated liberalism anymore (for which I am greatfull

Kids that are praying is not germane to the discussion. It's just a distraction.

Change all school names to numbers until the numbers hurt feelings.

Yeah, he’s got that liberal education and likes to spout a lot of stuff like he’s a great philosopher or something. One more reason why our colleges are warping the minds of Americans. He was real when he lived in OK and made tires for a living. Now he wants to compare protesting against America with praying. I think I liked the old model better.

What's a "liberal" education? How are colleges warping the minds by educating them? By showing them the world isn't flat?

By showing them that protesting every little thing is ok and disrespecting the country where men and women die to protect their freedom to be stupid. By not teaching them that an individual is responsible for their own actions and the world doesn’t owe them a living. A “professor” these days makes well in excess of $100k and might teach a single class per semester. It’s a cancer in our society but I guess you think that’s ok?
