Screw this loser!
ummm... Trickle down, regressive tax structures where poor people pay and HUGE businesses don't is not exactly decades of leftist econ. That is just not true. Where I live we have had conservative econ for almost two centuries. We have more poverty than most places.
Slavery, racism and segregationKaepernick had a way of showing the world that he did not respect America or American traditions, views and values.
No I think what the lesson from that story was, don't take advantage of the downtrodden people and not expect to be wrecked.
The has-been former football player turned democrat political activist is now inciting blacks to violence. Can anyone be surprised this America-hating leftist democrat would do such a stupid uncivilized thing?

Maybe not, but the bottom line is that for every action of violence, there will be a reaction. That is human nature
He began to take a knee after a vet told him he found it disrespectful to sit. American traditions include lynchings. Look at some of the photos. American traditions and values are great for a certain group of people for others it is terrorism.
Kaepernick took a knee because he was tired of racist getting off Scott free for killing black people
Slavery, racism and segregation
Nope he does not respect those traditions and views
So when a criminal shoots at a cop they have the right to shoot the criminal. Its the only logical reaction.
And the police should respond. OK then...dont call us. And if you do...sorry...love to help...but...nope.
Cops would be stupid to respond to calls in black communities for the next several months.
So he advocates violence against America because of slavery, racism and segregation? American soldiers' lives were at risk for months after WW2 ended from Japanese soldiers still fighting as they came out of caves to find out the war had ended long ago. Slavery was ended 150 years ago when the democrat South was beaten on the battlefield by Christians and Northerners fighting against slavery. It is time for those still living in the prehistoric caves of prejudice and ignorance to come out into the light and enjoy the freedoms and opportunities currently being enjoyed in America by happy people who descended from hundreds of different individual nations, cultures, color and religions around the world.
When did segregation end legally at least
How many Americans were thrown into camps in WW2 because of ethnicity?
Violent thugs protesting cop violence want the alleged offending cop lynched without a trial. Savage unbelievers are all alike, whether white or black. They are for blood and violence and opposed to law and order.
Have you ever wondered why poor nations which discourage "trickle down" economic policies never do have thriving economies? Impoverished nations don't have unfair imbalances of wealth. Everyone remains equally poor. Stupid Marxist economic policies always rob whole nations of people of wealth and freedom in order to appear to be compassionate on the poor, but poor people in rich nations are often richer than richer people in poor nations.
Democrat Marxist narrative: 'America has trodden down the poor and the ignorant proletariat and it is now time for them to rise up against their oppressors to tear down and destroy the corrupt society in order to rebuild a new nation in socialist communist prosperity and peace.'
Hugo Chavez turned Venezuela's bustling economy into a barren desert wasteland with such Marxist idealogies as this. His communist "trickle up" economic policies did away with many formerly wealthy people and businesses. Now just about everyone is on the same dirt poor economic level. Not that formerly dirt poor Americans would care that so many tens of thousands of Americans would be ruined if America trades "trickle down" capitalist business plans for "trickle up" communist plans.
Juries have found accused cops innocent of the crimes they were charged with and violent mobs of disgruntled leftists erupted in violence and protest. When bloody murderers like O.J. Simpson "got off Scott free" there were no violent mob protests from anyone over the injustice. There is a lesson there for anyone willing to see. God-rejecting hateful leftists will not stop hating those they want to hate no matter what a jury or judge may say.
And if the thugs who killedt George Floyd get off like the thugs that killed other unarmed black people, Then the violence will continueThat may be true. As can be surmised from Trump's words, if the criminal thugs keep up their wicked lawless actions then there could be a deadly reaction involving flying bullets from security forces sent to put down the unjustified lawless violence.
The reason for destruction is HATE. In this case, hatred for cops.

“But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of negro Americans. It has failed to hear that promises of justice in exchange for patience have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity.”

Look, cabse5, your point is well-taken. Everyone agrees that responding to violence with more violence is unfortunate and usually counterproductive. But let's not equivocate about this. What is happening right now is the inevitable result of institutional and individual racism that African-Americans (like me) have been living with for our entire lives. What you are condemning is the REACTION, not the inciting action. The ACTION was ANOTHER murder of an unarmed black person at the hands of the police. What we're seeing today is the result of that, and everything that followed.
There would be no protests across the country right now....there would be no riots anywhere....if African-Americans were not being abused and killed by police all over this country for the last 140 years (since the end of Reconstruction).
It is a discouraging FACT that a black man in America has a 1 in 1000 chance of being killed by a police officer. That's about 25,000 times greater than my (or your) chances of winning the lottery...and yet people play the lottery all the time. The probability of me or my sons being killed by police violence is greater than my risk of dying from a stroke...and about the same as my risk of dying from cancer.
And this isn't new. It's not as if police violence against African-Americans has gotten worse in recent years. Let's be clear also about this: Racism in America isn't getting worse, it's just being filmed now. The only thing distinguishing George Floyd from thousands of other black men (and women) who have died at the hands of the police is that Floyd's murder was recorded on cell phone video. Without that cell phone video, this would be just another case of white people believing the police report and black people believing the witnesses and family members.
At some point, enough is enough.
Hatred ONLY for Cops?
I would add that there is a hate for a whole lot more than just the cops. In Indianapolis, the Memorial to veterans and War Dead in the center of the city was spray painted with profanity after the "peaceable assemblies".
There is plenty of hate and the "demonstrators" are filled with hate and empty of thought, reason or logic.
WHY?
