WoW! This issue is crazy important! Let's just drop all other discussions and focus on this.
Ignore that 53% of our budget is focused on war. Ignore that the majority of every dollar earned in America funnels to the elites. Ignore the NFL is tax free. Ignore the fact that blacks have been disproportionately targeted for decades, and that the black panthers were formed to OBSERVE AND MONITOR police actions.. (MSM calls this terrorism?)
Just fucking ignore everything, and focus on Beyoncé..

Was it not a black power salute? Granted, nothing was overt or explicit, there were several coincidences - all pointing in that direction.
regardless of whether or not it truly was intended for that, the fact that people are protesting is a really bad sign of the race relations in our country right now.

Everything is a protest these days.. Get over your bloody selves for crying out loud. I am not one to Bash and or generalize Police officers etc., but we must Acknowledge that amongst the ranks across the fruited plane, there are a bunch of assholes that must be weeded out. I had no idea until I read this article that this is what Beyonce and her dancers were going for, and I saw the performance (guess i'm just daft and aloof?) If in fact this is what her attempts were, to bring attention to this matter, then she indeed did a good thing? after all we are talking about it now.
We must defend our cops yes, The ones that do a good job, that has good intentions at heart, that is well meaning, and is interested in law enforcement for the betterment of society as oppose to the ones that gravitate towards the Police force as a means of Power, as an ax to grind with a school yard bully to whom they must now show who's boss, to the small penis man who thinks that wearing a uniform enlarges his genetically small penis and the RACIST cop that uses the police force to mask his true intentions. The assumption that all Police men are noble reminds me of the automatic respect we seem to level at aged or old people. Fact is, a lot of old people are just aged Pricks, this same mind set can be applied to a lot of Police officers.
Wearing a uniform does not shelter the cops who are assholes from the fact that they are indeed assholes. So I say to you Beyonce, thanks for highlighting a problem if your gyrations and dance steps at last weeks otherwise absolutely boring Super Bowl was the intent....

Anti-White racism should be as unacceptable as anti-Black racism. A Black Power demonstration should never have been allowed. Are they going to have a White Power demonstration during the Super Bowl next year? Perhaps when Trump is President and Obama is in prison and all things are as they should be.

I thought black panthers... Carolina panthers.
Still in bad taste.
