I personally believe that there are and that this lands in that category. I also don’t like false narratives causing hate. The narrative that 13% of the population is shot by cops 30% of the time is pushed and causes hate and protest. The fact that’s left out is that 13% commits over 50% of violent crime probably has a lot to do with why they get shot more. PC people only want to focus on that first part. How can you solve any problem if you won’t factor in everything that contributes to that problem? They have a right to protest but how can people work together if they won’t admit the whole problem? I know, it makes me racist to say the whole problem... right? By the way, I support signing this guy.

Not a racist post at all. You are correct in (round-a-bout) stating that people only get half the facts. If you ever go to P&R (which is where this thread will end up tomorrow) you will see a lot of it. This is much like our society. Closed minds arguing one side thinking they have all the facts has become the American way of dispute (politics). The media pushes this agenda on both the left and right because, well, it makes them billions each year. 

The real criminal is the media. There once was a time when they united the country with truth. Now they divide it with lies and personal agenda's based on contributions, directed agendas and financing. Since the NFL is a big partner with the media stations and receive a large part of it's revenue from them, it seems money spoke and maybe the NFL was sorta hogtied? There once was a time when I thought the NFL could soon become America's pastime and steal that title away from MLB. Not gonna happen now.
