>>I'm saying that the entire judicial system in this country suffers from systemic racism. This is a widely known fact here. Even the laws themselves contain this problem (for example, the penalties for crack cocaine vs powdered cocaine. This is the type of thing that the Obama administration was addressing and that Jeff Sessions is screwing up the progress that was made.

It's also a widely known fact that when strict federal anti-crack penalties were first debated in 1986, the Congressional Black Caucus loudly decried the effect of crack on mainly black communities and pressed for even harsher penalties. Are those the racists you refer to? Besides which, if it's true that most coke arrests are at state level (with few sentencing disparities) rather than federal level where cocaine results in fewer than 2% of federal incarcerations, seems to me this may be a great clarion call, but doesn't carry racist stain/explanation for over-representation of blacks in prison populations.

>>It doesn't happen overnight. You think black people were setting at the front of the bus 2 days after Rosa Parks?

Yes but she didn't hold her protest in a nail salon, she did it on the bus where the bias was happening. Unless you're alleging that the NFL is racist against blacks (which the quickest glance at any NFL team makes seem unlikely) it's simply not the same.

>>I've only been to a few NFL games my whole life -- and there is no need to seek approval from me for a peaceful protest about anything. I might not agree with their message - but I for sure agree that it's their right to do so.

I'm asking where people might make a big display of lacking pride in the flag in front of an audience of people like you, so nobody's feelings are hurt and there's solidarity rather than more division. Otherwise a cynic might conclude that you're quite pleased to see angst caused for those NFL fans you refer to so disdainfully.
