Something That Really Pisses Me OFF

Is when someone I've always thought was smarter than the average bear parrots the Orange Buffoon and faux news memes about the NFL player protests. The ones that claim the players are disrespecting the flag, the troops, and mom's apple pie! The one below really pissed me off.

This photo has nothing to do with the protests. The guy died in a motorcycle accident in this country. SHE IS PISSED THAT HER PHOTO IS BEING MISREPRESENTED THIS WAY!

The Overpaid Kneelers in the NFL, we all know what this means, "What are these uppity niggers protesting about, they have money and no reason to bitch!   

The above meme even gets religion involved, talk about hitting all the buttons of Reich-WingNut Fuckery! 

When they try to use the flag and troops as the reason for the protests they are basically saying they have no answer to why the players are protesting and want to distract people from the real problem. SQUIRREL!

Jesse Ventura, a Navy Seal, said it better than me when he was asked about the flag burning amendment (put that way it sounds like you are in favor of burning the flag) back in the 90s when Rush Limpballs and the rest of Reich-WingNut pundits were pushing for such an amendment. "I didn't go halfway around the world and put my life on the line to take rights away from people." That is one of very few things I agree with Jesse. I personally didn't put my life on the line altho if I had gotten orders for the "Land of Fun and Sun" it would have been a different story. I fought the war on the home front other than a short time in the Iceland Campaign. But, yeah, I also didn't serve to take rights away from people!

Another thing about this that pisses me off is most of these Super Patriots pushing these memes never served. I don't have a problem with not serving, but I do have a problem with assholes like Ted Nugent who bragged about shitting his pants to avoid the draft and is now a Super Patriot Warhawk! Anywho, why is it that most of those that didn't serve are such Super Patriots -- to over compensate? Also, it seems like those that push these memes could care less about the fact the Russians interfered with our election in 2016, and that the Russians poured a lot of money into the campaigns and to the NRA for them to launder and use in the campaign! I'm old enough to remember when the Russians were the enemy not the benefactors of the GOP!

If we don't follow the Constitution and the Bill of Rights then it might as well be as aWol was accused of saying, "It's just a goddamned piece of paper!"

Addendum: This country was founded on protests, if it wasn't for those protesters 250 years ago, we would still be kissing the Queen's ass!
