It’s September 11, Patriot Day. The day we remember those innocent victims of Islamic terror attacks on New York City and Washington, DC. It’s also a day when we remember and honor those first-responders who rushed in hoping to save others while everybody else rushed out trying to save their own lives.

But on this Patriot Day, we have idiots like the QB for the world’s largest outdoor insane asylum (San Francisco) Colin Kaepernick, Denver’s Brandon Marshall and now Kansas City Chiefs’ Marcus Peters all of whom have refused to stand for the National Anthem prior to their games.

"’I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,’ Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game.”* "’I'm against social injustice,’ Marshall said.”**  “’I’m just stating that I’m black and I love being black,’ Peters told reporters. ‘I’m supporting Colin (Kaepernick) and what he’s doing as far as raising awareness with the justice system.”***

In that case, I’ve got something to “state” to all you overpaid, pampered, spoiled black NFL players who think blacks are so oppressed in this country by racism and an unfair justice system: you think you’re so oppressed here in 21^st century America, MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTRY!

And, while you’re relocating, why don’t you go and try expressing your opinion in such “tolerant” countries as, oh…say, Saudi Arabia where you can be put to death for wearing a piece of jewelry with a cross on it, telling someone about Jesus Christ or otherwise NOT abiding by Islamic Law. **** 

Or perhaps you’d like living in Rwanda where 20% of the population - 70% of which was of one tribe’s bloodline (Tutsi) – was killed by another indigenous tribe (Hutu) simply for having an unpopular ancestry. *****

Maybe you find the North Korean justice system far more to your liking. In the 1990s, 3.5 million North Koreans died of simple starvation. When was the last time you knew of any of the so-called “oppressed” blacks you claim to be defending in this country were denied food stamps, welfare and/or housing assistance on the basis of their skin color? 

My bet is never! 

One doesn’t have to look very hard in this country to find evidence of reverse discrimination – you know; preference in hiring, promotions, college admission, student loans, small business loans and housing loans given because the applicants are of minority ethnicity.*****

Not only that, in several of these communities where you spoiled rabble-rousing football playing nitwits say blacks have been so abused by the justice system – specifically by law enforcement shooting black perpetrators – have been cities with black police chiefs and/or black mayors. And let’s not forget these cities are all in a country with a 2-term black president.

So, you pampered, overpaid whiney baby NFL players that feel the need to make names for yourselves protesting the national anthem of a nation you’re so convinced is oh, so oppressive and unjust can just pack your crap and get the hell out. And “don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.”

And mark my words; racism will never be allowed to die. Because the likes of you and others like you know there’s power, money and all sorts of other advantages to be found by throwing the race card. So, no way you’re ever gonna let your biggest and best weapon ever go by the way side.

Like they told the hippies of the 1960s, “America; Love it or leave it.”
