Religion does not equal race.

Amazing that people don't understand the difference, isn't it?

No it's not.

 

So this isnt racist or racism. It was in LA.

You understand the difference between race and religion, right?

Nope. It's anti-semitism. Rage against the Jewish religion. There is no Jewish race.

Oh call it religion. I call it racist or prejudice. Racism is when one group feels superior. The Muslims feel they are superior to the Jews.

 

You all can call it what ever you want.

 

If I get up there and protest blacks being in America and also add in they should go back to Africa or give up where they live because someones white great great great great grandparents used to own it. Is that racist?

Nope. It's anti-semitism. Rage against the Jewish religion. There is no Jewish race.

It shouldnt matter. Race or religion. Prejudice is racism. Your condemning someone based on something.

You clearly have zero understanding of what the word racism means. Or you're being purposely obtuse.

Kaepernick has landed himself on the cover of TIME magazine.

And what, all 20 people saw it or was anyone there at all?

 

Why do people continue to comment about the importance/number of people for a protest? They knocked Kaepernick because he was a backup quarterback and now they are knocking the WNBA players because their sport isn't as popular. They knocked Megan Rapinoe (the soccer player) because they didn't know who she was. Why does that matter? Why does it have to be Tom Brady or Michael Jordan or Michael Phelps to do the protesting? Is someone's protest less valid because they can't throw a football far or don't have 20,000 people cheering their name every night?

As far as one being a "Jew"...while true it is not a race, it is also viewed by many as more than a religion. If born of a mother that is "Jewish", then many of that culture consider the child of Jewish decent as well and may be considered a "Jew" for life, regardless of the actual religion they might go on to participate in.

 

Not that I'm an expert on it by any means, but I have asked questions about it because I find it interesting. I believe if one can trace their lineage directly back to one of the 12 tribes, that plays into it as well.

So was Hitler, Man of the Year.

 

As was.

The magazine has nominated several controversial figures as "Man Of The Year" since the tradition started in 1927, including Joseph Stalin, Nikita Kruschchev, and Ayatullah Khomeini. Osama bin Laden was strongly considered in 2001, but the the award went to New York mayor Rudy Giuliani instead.

Great question and is along the lines of the debate I was having about how people would react differently if it were Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers.

 

 

I hope someone answers your question.

I, for one, could care less who it is. As a veteran I find it offensive. CK absolutely had the right to protest. I have the right to disagree with him.

 

I'd feel the same if it was Rodgers or Brady.

That's you. What about the rest of America? What about Wisconsin and New England?
