  1. i’m glad more people of power are standing up and marching. we need you sportsmen and sportswomen, thank you!

    1. Marching for what because there’s a few incidents of police brutality in a country of 350 million you people need to get a life already the only thing black people need to fear is other black people

    2. @cj p i wouldn’t say i’m a follower of athletes, i don’t play any sports, but i know of many people who do revere them.

    1. @Oz John Only if you believe that people who collaborate or enable or otherwise lack the courage to challenge an administration that looks to replace a democracy with an authoritarian regime that desires a national police force to fill the streets with jack-booted thugs to enforce fascist ideals are on the right side of history. Maybe you do. Some people are actually happier being free of the responsibility to make their own decisions.

    2. @Charlotte Katakuri He did not deserve to die being murdered by those racist cops. There is nothing you can say to justify what they did. Ben Carson is just another swamp creature in Trump’s cabinet. He and Betsy Devos are corrupt and incompetent and should be removed.

    3. @BREAKING NEWS Can’t wait to see his Neo-Nazi hillbilly morons gather to drool over their dysfunctional king.

    1. Mickey E πŸ˜­β—οΈ Where do they come up with such clever zingers? Must be from some stable genius textbook

  2. This is the same Ben Carson who said that the Egyptian pyramids were built to store grain πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

  3. *We breath the same, we bleed the same.. one love.. one race.. one nation..one family.. one existence.. one planet*

    1. @Charlotte Katakuri that’s a terrible thing to say ! We are all Gods people, really one people just the outside is very different, but our hearts should be as one ,if you ask a parent with many children, which one they love the most? Their answer will be I love them all the same ! The difference comes from how well they behave themselves. I Know as a kid I was at times very badly behaved! My sisters very well behaved, and I reaped what I deserved, my sisters reaped better and deservinly so! The discipline I got made me a better man

    2. @Jimmy Jazz I believe first man originally came from the middle east , I could be wrong ,but point is we all come from one creator

    3. @Pat Jenkins no one is the devil ,but people choice whom they follow, trump serves satan , now does he know that , probably not , so as Jesus said on the cross father please forgive them for they know not what they do! But repentance is in order

    4. @ALF MAC7 your right blue eyes are evil! Lmao, to think at one time in America people believe left handed people were evil Wow my son is a lefty , ok that one is true lmao

  4. Wasn’t it Ben Carson who said Bunker Boy 45 was at 205 pounds last year? πŸ€£πŸ™ˆ

    1. @Micah Ben-Avraham he was a good surgeon, came from humble beginnings, he’s a great success story. but he’s wrong about this. just like he was wrong about the pyramids. just like he has no business as secretary of hud. absolutely no qualifications for that job. i really don’t know why, given his medical expertise, he wouldn’t have been appointed surgeon general. regardless, being proficient or even great at one thing doesn’t mean you’re great at everything; his credentials as a surgeon are meaningless in this scenario.

    1. The core fans of the NFL will not watch football if the NFL is going to go social justice.

    1. @Joe V — That in order to be taken seriously black people must swear allegiance to and love for the flag. That’s what he said wrong. Weren’t you listening?
      Allegiance is NOT a prerequisite for expressing yourself —- unless you’re black.

    2. @South London Metal Detector – *And a California deputy was ambushed by a white man*
      Your point?

  5. I warned Ben Carson five years ago to stay the hell away from politics altogether because he didn’t belong there and it would ruin him. Now, it’s ruined him.

    1. Ben Carson has actually tried to help blacks but I guess they don’t want it. They just want to cry about the big bad white man.

    2. @Billy M. No he hasn’t he was trying to take away housing from us he is against us and we African American are not the only ones who have housing when wages are down housing is up please

  6. The players have been saying that this whole time. It’s not about disrespecting the flag and never has been.

    1. Take a knee during the coin flip, take a knee while switching possessions, take a knee when you celebrate a touchdown, take a knee after a turnover, take a knee in between quarters..do it when you are at the bank cashing that six figure check while driving away in a Bentley passing the neighborhoods you claim to kneel for………there are many problems in America……but this circumstance of making Kapernick a hero is not what it should be about……people make a criminal who was murdered more of a topic than children that are killed by nonsense violence on the community who had no chance…..it has become about what color of the person who kills someone black more than the actual problem.

  7. Exactly who does ben carson see when he looks in the mirror! The gop needs to show him what they really think about him.

    1. Wake up, i know very well who both parties are, if you re- read my comment i think you’ll find that we are talking about 2 different things.

    2. @Wake up . You should go back to school.. your knowledge of american history is minimal at best.. the argument that you make is directed towards people who you assume know less about history than you when in reality most of them probably know far more than you… Yes the dixiecrats were highly prejudiced and when they combined with right wing republicans much damage was done… But since the civil rights movement it was the democrats who passed civil rights legislation and the republicans who opposed it … When the voting rights bill passed the dixiecrats were voted out of office in the south and replaced by the progressives that you hate so much… They political platforms of democrsts and republicans are not the same as they were during the time of the civil war.. nor as they were after ww1 when the tulsa riots occurred.. which makes what your saying moot… Today the negro isnt going to support an all white political party that opposes any social iniatives that would uplift them…. At the time of Tulsa there were a lot of important republican racists too.. Hoover ordered over 50000 chicanos who american citizens and whose families had lived here since Calif was a state to be illegally and forcibly seized and dumped in mexico to free up jobs and property for white americans during the depression… Harding was in the KKK .. Coolidge did nothing to stop the lynching of blacks… I can go on and on … However what matters now is what the parties represent today.. A Reagan republican wouldnt recognize the party platform today .. you people pay Candace Owens to keep negros out of the Rep party.. the party leaders are not stupid and they know that negros are not as stupid as you think they are.. they know they will disgusted and repulsed by her and that for every 1000 negros that join the rep party.. at least 5000 whites will leave it.. the party agenda is based on the historical distortion that a multi cultural society will ruin the white race…

    3. @river rat republican are white supremacist party. Derek chauvin is amurder and a REPUBLICAN fraud voter in Florida

    4. @Wake up .. without democrats there would have been no civil rights laws in the 60s… LBJ was a democrat..JFK was a democrat.. you should retake the 3rd grade again… It was NIxon in 60. Wallace , Goldwater, ect who ran on anti civil rights platforms.. do you really believe the nonsense your saying??? In the congress and senate it was republicans who voted overwhelmingly against giving blacks the right to vote.. who voted overwhelmingly against allowing them into state colleges.. against ending segregated water fountains, stores, busses, ect… Why dont you google it???? Learn something today

  8. Look closely to see if there is an incision site near Ben’s frontal lobe…
    Something is not right here people, he appears to have echolalia with a flat affect void of emotion or facial expression.
    Something is definitely not right here.
