If it was a meaningful event in the context of the current movement an relevant than yes. That doesn't exist though.

I also don't find issues or people black and white. Kap isn't perfect. Castro did some great things along with some awful things, just like most leaders including our own.

you are very ignorant of national socialism history. lots of people where praising hitler in the first few years of nazi germany.
lots of "important" foreign leaders and celebrities met with hitler.

Yeah right Kap has said if someone will sign me I guarantee I won't kneel during the anthem again.
Tell me Ron do you support Black Lives Matter? You support groups that want cops killed? Kap did not just kneel...he wore socks depicting police as pigs. If that is your kind of hero, go take a flying leap.

I do support black lives matter. It does not support cops being killed, neither does black lives matter. Cops do great things and are needed in our society but as a group they discriminate against black people. That is a fact well proven with evidence. I personally know many great cops who do their job great. Some do not, and many discriminate subconsciously.

Do you support people being mistreated because of the color of their skin? Do you not think everyone should be treated the same regardless is their skin color? If so then get you crap out of here. Society doesn't need that crap.

Is it okay to wear shirts of presidents of the USA that have done terrible things? Is it okay to celebrate US even though it has committed awful acts? I think so. It is all relative.

His shirt was not of just fidel. It was of a meaningful event in US history.

I wont defend Castro because he did awful things but we also celebrate others it just depends on the situation. Nelson Mandela for example is celebrated as a hero for the great things he did. But many people ignore the fact that he orchestrated bombings that killed innocent people. It can be perspective sometimes. Castro did do some good things in his life along with some terrible things.

I disagree. Many people use it that way but I have seen numerous conservatives act that way. They get offended at every little thing. They often try to mask it by calling the person that offended them a snowflake.

Cool, sounds like you ran out of an argument and are just shouting embarrassing things again. Good luck lil buddy.

How many owners, coaches and front office people are black? No player has been talented enough to make the NBA but cut because they were white.

how about most black people come from single parent homes. that means they never met a man of authority. no man in the house. so when they finally meet cops they act up!

how come bikers who are more bad *** then most gangstas know how to not get killed by cops when they get pulled over

In America? Yes you could.
Where you live? I have no idea.

Most people in the U.S. saw Castro as a hero before he went with the Soviets instead of the U.S..

The U.S. would have gladly taken him on as an ally after the revolution, and they would have painted him as every bit a hero and you would be sitting here calling him a freedom fighter right now instead of a piece of ****.

tl;dr before people in the U.S. hated Castro they loved him

what response do you wnat.?


muh racism?


what about different culture and upbringing. other things accept race. alhtough people of different races have different talents.


you accept that black people can dunk easier. it has nothing to do with gravity being racist, or the rim being at racist height.
but still people.


but with police brutality and such, maybe the upbringing is different. and if you blame racism, these things happen in blue states.

Yep, racism is in every state. Good point.

Also thanks for pointing out some of your ideas that are racist.

"black people" can't dunk easier.

On the continent of Africa there is a community with the shortest average height and another with the tallest average height. People native to Africa have greater variation in genetic makeup than all the rest of humanity combined. So there is more difference between two people from Africa than there is between a German and a Chinese person and a Native American and a Middle-Eastern and a Pacific Islander.

So no, black people don't have an easier time dunking. Tall people have an easier time dunking. Athletic people have an easier time Dunking. Tall athletic people have the easiest time dunking. With so much genetic variation it is simply more likely that a black person will be on the extremes, any extreme, in all directions.
