Things NFL Players Could Do Than Kneeling

I originally wasn't going to waste energy on this episode of conservative political correctness however a tweet from Anarcho-Capitalist rapper Eric July got me thinking.

"It's not about disrespecting, it's about the injustice" The fact that you have to explain this at a massive level, shows it's not working

July is 100% correct here, the whole kneeling thing isn't working for what Kapernick and others are opposing. In general I've never felt that protesting accomplishes much of anything other than making oneself a target for government or political enemies. If Kapernick and other players really want to make an actual difference when it comes to government goon squad abuse here's what they should do.

1. Support Gun Rights and Self Defense

Athletes should know that they're a much higher target for crimes (both government and private) given their high public profiles and wealth. So arming themselves should really be a no-brainer. However it shouldn't be enough to be armed themselves they should go into neighborhoods and teach about gun rights and usage. There is a great guy named Maj Toure who runs the organization Black Guns Matter . Toure's organization is decided to introducing if not reintroducing gun rights to black neighborhoods. Athletes should absolutely be backing Toure's project and if not they should be doing something on their own.


2. Support Self and Community/Neighborhood Defense

Anarcho-Captialists know government security is a joke and harms people more than it helps. Not to mention that it has been ruled that government security has no obligation to protect you. So this is an area that should be promoted.

The Black Panthers while an awful left-socialist and racist group did three things right; they exercised their right to carry firearms, patrolled their neighborhoods and filmed cops. The result of this was that cops were significantly more "civil" when Black Panther patrols were around.

Also reaching out to organizations like CopBlock and Photography is Not A Crime is a must. Given that the media, no matter if it's the local or the national they are stenographers for the police. These two organizations are one of the best when it comes to documenting government security abuse. 

3. Stop caring on what the opposition thinks

Like communists, cop supporters cannot be reasoned with. There is no reason to attempt to win these people over they will always hate you even if you choose to lick the boots. Their criticisms only exist to distract you from the real problem, they have no interest in changing their line of thinking.


There is no guarantee that any of this will work or change anything but it's more productive than taking a knee.

The Pointlessness of Denouncing

So the "battle" between right wing socialist Alt-Right and left wing socialists Anti-Fascist Action (aka AntiFa) in Charlottesville Virginia has come and gone. I sit here and try to make sense of it. The conclusion is that there was no sense to it at all. Just two statist factions who's cornerstone philosophy is socialist identity politics arguing over who gets control of the boots of the state.

Then afterward people come out saying that they denounce the alt-right or denounce anti-fascist action. Personally I see all these denouncing to be pointless. Here is the thing no matter what ideology it, is the people who say that so and so needs to denounce "insert-group/person-here" will still hate them no matter what they do. It doesn't just pertain to the altright and antifa, for example; whenever there is a terrorist attack (or should I say CIA/FBI false flag) the right is quick to squawk "Why won't muslims condemn attacks?" On the surface they say there is a difference between the innocent muslim and the radical one but it's a farce. They've declared years ago that muslims are the enemy and it doesn't matter what they say there is no changing their mind. It's all but a pathetic attempt to get people to jump through hoops for them. It's not just terrorist attacks, it's immigration, mass shootings, guns, taxes, police brutality/bootlicking, war, political/patriot correctness, etc.


My father once said to me; "Not everyone is going to like you but that doesn't matter just live your life" I consider that one of the best pieces of advice he's given me to date. In my view thats how people need to handle things when the left and right start screeching for people to denounce things. Why should I apologize or denounce something that I didn't engage in personally? The answer is that you shouldn't and if you do it doesn't matter to those people anyway.
