Mike Ditka

[Proud liberal 80]

I know everyone is focusing on his comment about there being no racial suppression for the last 100 years. But the comment that pissed me off was when he said “if you don’t like the country then get out, adios.”

I don’t know where to begin, but basically he is saying if you don’t like racial suppression and injustice then leave. Like we should just take it. And the funny thing is that African Americans’ ancestors were here way before a lot of whites’ ancestors (including Ditka’s Polish/German ancestors).

Conservatives like using that “then get out.” line, but only for liberal protesters. They never used it when the Tea Party was protesting or when Bundy has a stand off with law enforcement.

1. Dont forget

The assholes in Oregon. These groups have taken up arms against the US goverment, but dont take a knee during the National Anthem? Your disrespecting the country.

2. Yeah

That’s who I meant by the Bundy’s. It’s funny that most Libertarians are anti government and you would think that they would applaud kneeling.
