For the umpteenth time, they are not protesting the flag, the anthem, nor the military!

JHC.

Please advise what specifically are the social injustices against blacks? I've heard it tied directly to one issue; however, what are the others.

FYI, what I think you are refusing to acknowledge about these protests are that people don't give a sh!t what they are protesting against IF they are going to (metaphorically) give the finger to things most people hold as being sacred.

What would happen to me if I would go to Dearborn, MI to the most prosperous Islamic neighborhood I could find, park myself right across from the mosque and draw pictures of Mohammed as a protest against the plight of migrant workers in Saudi Arabia? Do you think they would show empathy with my protest?

I'm not black...you'll have to ask them. I would guess it's things like racial profiling and stuff like DWB. Something only they can experience. Perhaps it's overblown, but if you're not black, it's hard to just blatantly dismiss it.

And as I said earlier, I would prefer they protest in other ways and other places...and also speak out more vocally. But again, it's not my place or right to tell others when and where to protest.

Seems to be a disconnect then. If you aren't even sure WHAT they are protesting against - because "social injustice" is WAY too generic - then how can you ever take anything they say seriously? And why not interpret their actions as slamming our country? Honestly, if the crux of their protests are per your speculation based on police interactions, why not protest those specific cities for these injustices? Why aren't the 49'ers railing against the evils of San Francisco? Or better yet, the Bears protesting against the city of Chicago because of the ridiculously high murder rates?

I pretty much ignore all protests, so this matters little to me. I'm just telling you what they say they're protesting...and again, it ain't the things trump and his RW minions are telling their masses it is.

What they say doesn't really matter in this case. It's what it looks like that is much more important. And what it looks like to the majority of Americans is a bunch of whiny, pampered and spoiled millionaires disrespecting the flag and the anthem of the country that provided them the opportunity to become whiny, pampered and spoiled millionaires in the first place.
