My 2 cents on 2 damn issues of the day

#1 I wish that we could see the same outrage that was thrust upon Colin Kaeperernick, by those same people who were so apoplectic for someone taking a knee at a sporting event, thrust upon trump for not doing shit about the bounties placed on our men and women serving on the God forsaken battle fields of foreign lands. Where are they now, the "I stand for the National Anthem, I stand for the Flag" crowd? Troops can't hear you !!!!!

#2 The powerful rich, white folks, taking advantage of a talented, clearly mentally ill Black man, Kayne West. Kim K has been begging people who will listen, to help. Kayne is not in a right state of mind and yet trump operatives are convincing him (seemingly pushing him) that he needs to run for the presidency.

They did similar shit to Mike Tyson too!!! They made Mike go off his meds so he would be a better fighter (a killer)... who knows what else they were doing to him or giving him. But Mike went crazy, raped and beat his wife, tried to kill her. I in no way excuse Mike T but those handlers did contribute to his crack up. They ruined his life and first chance at happiness, in his hard life. Exploitation at the highest level. This needs to be shouted from the highest rooftops by those around Kayne ... get allies, respected Black leaders to help. Not to be political as much as to stop this abuse of someone who is ill. Disgusting
