    Lol

    And you forgot to add that if CNN was reporting that there were demands to investigate if racism played a part.

    This crap makes my blood boil, but I actually agree that Nike has no business putting an American Flag on anything they sell. The company outsources everything they make to asian sweatshops and they jump at the chance to endorse this Kaperkenipple jackass and anything else un-American they can find. Nike selling a USA themed product is the most ironic thing ive seen in a long time. The only way that they could put an American flag on their shoes without being complete hypocrites is if they put it on the soles of the shoe so you could trample on it with each step.

    When will Nike come out and say Kaepernick is their new CEO?

    What a bunch of panty wastes over there.

    Exactly! I was surprised to see an American flag on a Nike product. One of the most anti-American companies around. This situation highlights the fact that they prey on the ignorant to buy their over-priced crap. It wouldn't surprise me if this thing was all set up to further Kapernicks agenda.

    I need to ask. The police officer in Las Vegas that froze, yes he does deserve to be fired does he deserve to be charged? The guy took an oath when he got his badge he froze and people died because of his inaction. Sure a lot of complications like back up not there but he froze he was inactive. Sure easy to say my job does not involve dealing with armed people shooting up the place up still the man took an oath, is it no different that an officer getting favors using his badge as leverage? Brett what say you?

    IMHO, School resource officer should be fired, but not charged... Would need more details/context if I was on the jury pool.

    I think Tim was referring to the officer on the scene at the casino...

    1) A 2005 supreme court ruling (the Gonzales case I believe) states first responders have no obligation to protect the public. Any cop being charged for failing to protect the public is going to have to go through that court case.

    2) the cop has a handgun...the bad guy has a high powered semi auto or auto rifles. Who is going to win that battle 99 times out of 100? Should he engage that threat without proper gear? Like taking on a guy with a handgun with a knife.

    3) The cop advanced all the way up to 1 floor below the bad guy then his fight or flight instinct took over for a few minutes and all his instincts told him to stay put.

    No I dont think he should be charged. It would be the same as charging a fire fighter for not running into a burning house without the proper training and or equipment...would a firefighter be charged criminally for not running into a severely burning house without a respirator and holding a basic fire extinguisher? I think not.

    Ignore Kapernick and spend your money elsewhere, the free market will solve this problem. I haven't bought Nike's since the signed him as the political activist "athlete."

    TDS is real. The left have been clammoring on about the excessive costs of the fireworks display and Trump's Salute to America. Then, when he announces the fireworks have been donated and thanks those responsible this happens.

    Guarantee that within the next 6 years we start hearing talks that the American Flag is outdated and offensive and needs to be redesigned to fit the "new" America. There's a reason they are trying to erase history.

    If you are not the type if person who believes it eating healthy, exercising, and taking good care of yourself, consider this: I work in a medical school. Just saw a medical student come into the gym wearing an “I am an Elizabeth Warren Democrat” tank top to work out. In 5-6 years, this kid could be your doctor. If that is not motivation to take better care of yourself, I don’t know what is.

    He should be fired, not be charged. He doesn't have what it takes to do the job, but that doesn't make him a criminal. The psycho is the one who killed the kids, not the officer. Granted, he could have saved lives but it's a slippery slope when we start prosecuting cops/fire fighters etc for failure to do their job properly. Plus police departments don't always do a good job of hiring. Applicant pools are not what they used to be. Just a fact.

    Always a good sign when the IT Helpdesk guy just starts laughing when you call because the mandatory annual online HIPPA training keeps kicking you out before completing it. Even the IT guy couldn't complete his training. He told me to get in line and get comfortable.

    I don't get real offended by much these days but the words, "old white guys" being flung around with disdain is making me think. Been a lot of "old white guys" that have given everything they have for this country...including their lives. No one would dare say anything about any other group of people without expecting major backlash except "old white guys".

    We cant win this election if the candidate is an "old white guy"

    OR

    we cant wint this election if it's a "young black male"


    We cant win if it's a "gay mixed race female"

    "Rich Asian man"

    "Poor black woman"

    "Mentally retarded person"


    None of those would fly and if spoken by anyone it would be a major problem...but keep saying "old white guy" with indignation. Real great. Hell I refused to put my race on my marriage license and many of my job applicationsbc I dont like defining myself and or being complicit in ridiculous racial statistics, but this stuff is irritating me.
