Candace Owens Takes On Kaepernick At CPAC

Conservative commentator Candace Owens exposed the hypocrisy of left-wing activist Colin Kaepernick during a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday. During her speech, she described liberals as a “doomsday cult” due to their paranoid fear-mongering about the Trump administration’s agenda. One prominent leftist she drew attention to was NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, the controversial leader of the ‘Take a Knee’ movement in sport, who has claimed that the “expansion of American imperialism” was underpinned by “attacks on black and brown people” in response to Trump’s Iran policy. “Persia used to be an empire,” Owens stated, exposing the… Keep Reading

Weekend Of Fights Shows That NFL Brutes Belong Behind Bars, Not On Pedestals

This past weekend, NFL players – who alongside Hollywood stars that regularly get on their knees for acting roles function as our collective moral compass nowadays – across the country were involved in a series of grizzly brawls adding further embarrassment and shame to the beleaguered organization with its ratings already in the toilet. Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver AJ Green savagely attacked Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey, choking him and pummeling him brutally for no particular reason. Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Flynn leveled New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore, again, for no good reason. In both situations, the… Keep Reading

If they didn’t have it in there, it would just be tradition. But this is law. If we disobey this, what else are we going to disobey? While the former Alabama Supreme Court Justice was criticized for his remarks, he isn’t wrong. Keep Reading

“Taking The Knee” Rhymes With “Taking A Pee”

Taking a knee stands for the specter of beefy, pampered athletes—they’re not sportsmen—wealthy beyond belief, striking a political pose on the football field, during the playing of the national anthem. First to kneel when he was meant to stand was Colin Kaepernick. The reason the San Francisco 49er knelt, in 2016: “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.” Like Kaepernick, current kneelers are not Copernicus. It’s hard to fathom what they actually want. A non-player activist has since narrowed the kneeling to “ending… Keep Reading

Why Is Public Opinion Shifting On Athletes Kneeling During National Anthem?

The country has become engulfed in the National Anthem debate once again. Last year, National Football Player Colin Kaepernick ignited a firestorm of public opinion and debate by refusing to honor the National Anthem. In the months since, it has spread to other players and across numerous sports. Kaepernick’s reason for doing so was to protest racial inequality, a reason many others have adopted. In the beginning, many in the general public stood by Kaepernick. While there is an argument regarding respect, they understand the importance of standing up for what is right. There are legitimate issues nationally regarding racial… Keep Reading

The Absolute Absurdity Of The #TakeAKnee Debate

Of all the headlines taking control of the papers and social media, entertainers bending their knees appears to be at the top of the list. National Football League free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick made headlines last year repeatedly for refusing to stand during the National Anthem, a move he said was protesting racial inequality across the country. In the time since, other players have jumped on board, and it’s even spreading to other sports. Liberals celebrate such an apparently courageous stand, and opponents are triggered by knees being bent during a song. Both sides are deeply passionate about the topic… Keep Reading
