[ Outline ] · Standard · Linear+ Sf Giants, Black anthem

So apparently the Giants opened their season by playing the "black anthem."

I'll go ahead and step on the third rail here.... does anyone besides me think it's weird that our country seems to be going down a path where instead of becoming more American, we're supposed to be more and more conscious of our "race"?

How is it supposed to help us as a country and as a global community to focus so much on race? Will there be a time in our future where the Olympics no longer have national anthems and instead play a tune based on the race of the individual athletes?

Didn't Martin Luther King say he dreamt of a time where his children would be "judged the content of their character and not the color of their skin"? Was he wrong?

I refuse to watch any sporting event that starts with such a thing or any overpaid individual or common person kneeling during the Anthem . RANT OVER . By the way I didnt miss baseball , I wont miss baseball . Nascar now sucks . And we shall see when football starts . Now Rant over.
