I really want to like this BUT - NFL's Botham Jean Ad

[tulipsandroses]

After demonizing and blackballing Kaepernick for his message - NOW they have an ad/PSA about police violence and a slogan that says we are all in this together? Uhm, OK. When the fuck were they in this together with Kap? or the players that were being punished for taking a stand? Much respect to the Jean family. I truly respect and support them wanting to keep his legacy alive. The NFL, on the other hand, can kick rocks.

Though the NFL has undertaken several social justice initiatives in recent years, including the Responsibility Program and its Inspire Change initiative, the league continues to face criticism over its treatment of Colin Kaepernick amid his public displays of protest.

If we are all in this together, why no mention of Kaepernick and why he was kneeling in the first place?

The ad itself is fantastic. Worth watching.

1. They are "in it" unless it negatively affects their bottom line, then...

NOT SO MUCH.
