The Left, can get the Left out of this country! No country, No man or woman on this Earth is perfect. There are good people, and bad people all over this Earth. For those of you that think your "good" and "righteous", think again! The "Left" condemns anyone that has a different opinion. We ALL hate racism. But, "The Left" calls anyone that disagrees with them "racist" by default. Go to any other country in the world, especially in the East, and see what true racism is. The left keeps moving the "goal post" and changing definitions of words to suit their divisive, group think, racist, self righteous narrative. The Dems are the ones pushing it so ignorant people will buy into their nonsense just to get their vote and remain in power. Those of you that have voted left for most of your lives.......WAKE UP! They want us to be divided! Just listen to their rhetoric! I have NEVER seen Democrats so desperate to divide this nation.

The technical difficulties were that they wouldn't play it because it would "offend" some people. This was the time the BLM movement were saying there should be a Black National Anthem. In the UK, I remembered this clip and I was aghast because - for all we say about American's - American's do love their country and the fact that the crowd sang the anthem brings tears to my eyes still. I still not sure why the other coach didn't let their team stand up for the anthem but I will always remember that - with this video - it wasn't a technical issue, it was a social issue and, always in the end, it's patriotic American's that come to the rescue.

This baloney has been going on for decades.. but the riots and b.s. really started happening in 2011 under the occupy movements. Its just called different names now.. but I believe Antifa sprung up from these groups.. I was going to college at the time and they had leftist talking heads, like cornell west, come to my campus to talk about democratic socialism and how much better it was than capitalism. Talked about corruption within the government and how we need to fight hard against it. How Republicans were evil and wanted to take everything away from us. About how we needed to get money out of politics, so on and so forth. I actually attended some of the occupy protests up until Bernie lied and wanted us to support and vote for a woman who has a massive body count behind her as well as been under fbi investigations since she has been in public eye. Since then, I have done extensive research (down lots of rabbit holes) and have officially left the democrat party with a vengeance. I am ashamed to have ever called myself a democrat. One day we won't need parties, but for now, the republican party has been the ONLY party that has been working tirelessly for the American people (besides the RINO's.. in which need to be voted out immediately). I know many know this already.. but some don't. RESEARCH EACH CANDIDATE BEFORE CASTING YOUR VOTE! There are many wolf's wearing sheep's clothing. JusticeDemocrats have stated that they are going to recruit and run people under the Republican ticket. No republican is doing this within the democrat party. The dems think we are that stupid. We need to prove them wrong and vote their asses out. We need term limits. These positions are not ment to be made into a career.. so therefore, we don't need career politicians who are easily bought and paid for by lobbyists. We have seen many irregularities during 2020 elections. Make sure to cross off every name and bubble you're marking to vote.. to try to decrease the amount of fraud. It won't be much.. but at least it's one step we can take (for those of us who can't do anything else to help in those regards). If you have any better ideas.. please let me know. I am always open for suggestions.
