How tedious you are.

You and Dan lack the capacity to understand why this type of so called anti racism is totally flawed and promoted by people who could not care less about the lives of the ordinary people of any colour.

I lack no capacity to understand. Nor does every player in every football club in the country. Perhaps it is you that is missing something

And just to repeat, again. BLM is NOT an organisation. It is a philosophy. Some organisations have sprung up using the words, they do not all necessarily represent the views of those that believe in the philosophy.

I bet not one of the players have the slightest bit of control over what is on their shirts. I also would bet that very few, if any, have any knowledge of the BLM political movement and those that do have no sympathy for it.

Very few people in the UK are aware of the political beliefs of the BLM organisation. They have sympathy for the concept and make the assumption that the two things are identical. It may be naive but not everybody follows politics that closely.

I would suggest by not acknowledging this you are the worst kind of "white" person. You are certainly naive.

Not necessarily naive but misled by the media and their coverage. Why insist on calling the poster naive? because he happens to have a different view to you? Worst kind of “white” person!! WTF

But have the media done anything to differentiate between the two? Not as far as I can see, they have jumped on the BLM bandwagon. You say philosophy many in the media still calling it an organisation.

Colin Kazim -Richards didn’t kneel. He said he stands proud. So presumably everyone else can stand proud next to him and abandon the kneeling.

Yes, fair enough. Providing they, like him, substitute kneeling for a Black Power salute.

Personally I would not.

Then they are wrong. Fancy that, an unreliable media.

Some footballers lack the capacity to understand the rules of common decency let alone the ethos behind BLM.

Drivel.
There is no value in BLM whatever. It is a self serving and counterproductive concept which promote hypocrisy and division and is perpetuated by the threat of ruin to anyone who speaks out against it.

You know this full well and yet you defend it and play stupid.

Black Power? Sounds like a political statement.
