I've remained mum on my position so I'll give it. I'm against police brutality against anyone. If someone thinks it doesn't happen or that cops don't exaggerate charges and what happened or plant evidence....you're simply thinking wrong.
As for this...as TKUHL put it....in summation....there are many other ways. Hell....the sumbitch could have held a press conference FFS.
I don't watch sports or go to concerts to hear your political view. I stay out of PnR because I've already hashed those battles and I can tell ya NEITHER side likes my politics of accountability and compromise. So I just keep it to myself.
I don't like Trump...or HilLIARry....but Roger Waters' incessant bellyaching (thank God I saw clips of the show before I bought tickets) during his whole The Wall shows kept me from going. I don't want my entertainment muddled with politics. I want my entertainment to be an escape. Waters also has ample opportunity to speak his platform. Do it on your own time Roger....and not on my ticket dime. Don't cram it down my throat....I don't cram my views down anyone else's. No wonder the rest of the band wouldn't reunite with you.
Same goes for CK....you have/had a platform. Use it. I find his method distasteful....but he could have given a presser or pre/postgame interview and got his message out, a message on his helmet or something. I'd be fine with that. Calling attention to YOURSELF during the anthem reeks of being an attention ***** to me....not an activist.....and like I said....show some class and respect to those that died or lost loved ones in order for you to make millions playing a GAME.
