    When the going gets tough.... Downshift.

  • Dunno how we got here but we are in a time when Colin Kapernick is praised for kneeling during the national anthem vs Drew Brees shamed into an apology for his belief in honoring the flag. Never thought I would see patriotism wither on the vine like it is today!!

    There's no HOA in my neighborhood, but regardless, I will always fly the American flag proudly on the front of my house. Let someone complain, I dare them...

    Brees wasn't shamed for his belief in honoring the flag. He was shamed, because like many people he didn't understand why Kapernick was kneeling and why people are protesting now. He was shamed more harshly, because he is the captain of a mixed race team sport and clearly didn't understand where some of his teammates were coming from.


    He apologized for his misunderstanding, not for his rightful belief in respecting and honoring the flag.;)

    Thanks for that - what he said is true as it can be!! I’m puttin that guy on my Xmas list :00008359:

    I might not be right but I can sure sound like it

  • This is truly slickening. I'm afraid it will only get worse at a rapid pace. Sad when Americans have to hide their patriotism! I hear stories all the time of people in collective association neighborhoods and apartments that are being denied the opportunity to display the American Flag. Sad, it's to the point of destruction for displaying the flag.

    what makes displaying the flag so offensive. To What country do they owe their allegiance. If Seeing our flag displayed offends you please leave the country because we will be better off. You are not a patriot. And you do not deserve all the benefits of this country.

    I don't believe anyone believes flying the flag (any flag) is offensive. What I believe is happening here is the HOA has pointed out that one of their byaws that prohibit anyone from displaying flags on the front of their house has been broken. As much as we all may disagree with it, people agree to follow these rules when they buy a home in that neighborhood.

  • I don’t want to start a new thread out of fear of being arrested....


    this isn’t sounding like what real Americans thought it was going to be....


    Americans companies are leaving China but not for the US....they are just moving to other shithole countries.....so no new American jobs will be created.....and there should be no new tax incentives for these companies either.....

    Sounds like corporate greed is still in play......American companies are still Only interested in using slave labor and low wage labor.....it’s about the bottom line......Not American workers or improved supply chains....

    right after I watched it a sign popped up saying the content was no longer available....more Facebook censorship for the democrats....


    I say Facebook, Twitter, youtube should be nationalized....because right now they have turned into socialist/commie propaganda tools.

  • I didn’t write this....it was another genius...


    If you don’t believe in the Deep State, look at these 8 bullet points. The bullet points are the 8 steps detailed by Saul Alinsky in his teachings of how to overthrow a democracy. Think of how they relate to coronavirus, and then when you get to number 8, think about the media’s role in their non-stop, week in, week out 24/7 coverage of George Floyd. Every one of Alinsky’s 8 steps to overthrow democracy has been taken:



    1. Healthcare: “Control Healthcare and you control the People”

    (COVID) ✅



    2 Poverty: Increase the Poverty level as high as possible.” Poor People are easier to control and will not fight back if the government is providing everything for them to live.

    (COVID) ✅



    3. Debt: Increase the National Debt to an unsustainable level.” That way you are able to increase Taxes, and this will produce more Poverty.

    (COVID) ✅



    4. Gun Control: Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a Police State – total local control.

    (IN PROGRESS)



    5. Welfare: Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Livestock, Housing, and Income).

    (COVID) ✅



    6. Education: Take control of what People read & listen to; take control of what Children learn in School.

    (COVID) ✅



    7. Religion: Remove faith in God from the Government and Schools. Close down houses of worship.

    (COVID) ✅



    8. Class Warfare: Divide the People into the Wealthy against the Poor. Racially divide. (GEORGE FLOYD) ✅. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to Tax the Wealthy with full support of the voting Poor.

    (COMING SOON)



    Pay close attention to number 8, creating class and racial warfare, the final nail in the coffin. We are in the middle of a global pandemic that has killed nearly half a million people. Why is the media focusing 100% of their efforts on 24/7 coverage of ONE man’s death? To distract the public from the fact that a laboratory in China, funded by the Gates Foundation, released a virus that has killed half a million people. To distract from the fact that Bill Gates will profit from the global vaccine that is developed to treat coronavirus. The Deep State is all around us, while the media divides us into black and white and gives us sharp sticks to go to war with each other. And all the dumb masses fall for it without even a second thought.

  • Brees wasn't shamed for his belief in honoring the flag. He was shamed, because like many people he didn't understand why Kapernick was kneeling and why people are protesting now. He was shamed more harshly, because he is the captain of a mixed race team sport and clearly didn't understand where some of his teammates were coming from.


    He apologized for his misunderstanding, not for his rightful belief in respecting and honoring the flag.;)

    I strongly disagree!! Brees is a very intelligent man and philanthropist (you don’t become one being stupid or naive) - that as long as this controversy has been around “he doesn’t understand”. What he originally said he said is what he believes but caved to the “social justice warriors”. That is what is the problem these days - whether you or right or wrong your beliefs are yours - capitulating just to satisfy dissenters is just being like another lame politician. Of course all of us can only speculate because we can’t read Brees’s mind but the facts speak otherwise to your assumption!

    I might not be right but I can sure sound like it

    any wrong move today will cause you to lose your job because everyone wants to distance themselves from not being politically correct...I’m Know nothing about the brees thing...don’t care....

    There is no such thing as an innocent comment with social media up your butt.....stay off it and you won’t look and sound stupid...

  • See, for me, I didnt care why Kapernick was kneeling - his cause was completely lost by when he chose to promote it and in reality for me it had nothing to do with the flag either.


    I go to concerts and watch sporting events as a chance to get away from all of the crap in life - I sometimes pay very good money for this chance to escape and the last thing I want when I have paid money to be entertained is for the paid entertainer to bring the very crap I am trying to get a break from into the time I PAID FOR


    you want to protest - - great I fully support it - - just do not do it on the time I paid for, go do it on your own free time


    Kapernick could have been preaching things I would fully support and it would not have mattered - when I have paid good money to see you play a game, or sing a song or dance a dance - dont waste my time and my money doing non related things

    and this guy is credible????

    Colin supported Colin .. it was a marketing ploy to save a failing career, now he say's it and Nike does it without even having to step on the field ... brilliant, harmful and I don't believe for a minute he was ever sincere, but brilliant nonetheless ...

  • I might not be right but I can sure sound like it

  • I don't give two shits about renaming army bases because of who they are named after. Name one Camp Unicorn sounds fine to me. It makes me mad when retired generals make political statements to make themselves look relevant. They took no action when in positions of authority because they valued their power and position over doing the right thing. It wasn't a problem when they were in charge? I've never trusted anyone over full bird, you don't get stars unless you climb the political pole. End of rant.
