Colin Kaepernick …. “🏈🏆🏈 Amnesty International’s Ambassador of Conscience Award …. Athlete and Activist 🏈🏆🏈 …. “!!

ATHLETE AND ACTIVIST COLIN KAEPERNICK RECEIVES AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL’S AMBASSADOR OF CONSCIENCE AWARD

The Ambassador of Conscience Award celebrates individuals and groups who have furthered the cause of human rights through acts of conscience, confronting injustice and using their talents to inspire others.

The USA is a country where people can freely disrespect the flag using it as a thong, underwear, condom, disposable plates, bras, napkins, etc. but people got a heart attack just because he kneeled down silently and that is so “disrespectful” to the flag.

Really?

Kneeling down is a form of respect and humbling yourself before someone.

I fully agree with Chino and his statement.

The award was officially presented at a ceremony in Amsterdam, Netherlands, on 21 April 2018, to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the opening of Amnesty International’s national section in the country.

“The Ambassador of Conscience award celebrates the spirit of activism and exceptional courage, as embodied by Colin Kaepernick. He is an athlete who is now widely recognised for his activism because of his refusal to ignore or accept racial discrimination,” said Salil Shetty, Secretary General of Amnesty International.

“Just like the Ambassadors of Conscience before him, Colin Kaepernick chooses to speak out and inspire others despite the professional and personal risks. When high profile people choose to take a stand for human rights, it emboldens many others in their struggles against injustice.

Colin Kaepernick’s commitment is all the more remarkable because of the alarming levels of vitriol it has attracted from those in power.”

“I would like to thank Amnesty International for the Ambassador of Conscience Award. But in truth, this is an award that I share with all of the countless people throughout the world combating the human rights violations of police officers, and their uses of oppressive and excessive force.

To quote Malcolm X, when he said that he, ‘will join in with anyone – I don’t care what color you are – as long as you want to change this miserable condition that exists on this earth,’ I am here to join with you all in this battle against police violence,” said Colin Kaepernick.

“While taking a knee is a physical display that challenges the merits of who is excluded from the notion of freedom, liberty, and justice for all, the protest is also rooted in a convergence of my moralistic beliefs, and my love for the people.”

Colin Kaepernick explained why he sacrificed his career in the NFL to stand against systemic racism as he received Amnesty International’s highest honor.

Keith Olbermann, #133 …. “💰 What Mike Pence’s Cynical Anthem Stunt Cost 💰 …. and the other Cabinet Members Too …. “!!

~~October 10, 2017~~

WHEN WILL IT STOP?

GREAT QUESTION

What’s the answer?

Seems that ‘draining that swamp‘ isn’t working as the public was lead to believe. Are you feeling it yet, America?

Tired of winning, yet?

The plan had been for Vice President Mike Pence to attend the Indianapolis Colts game at which Peyton Manning’s number was to be retired, a gala celebration of the former Colts quarterback’s contributions to Pence’s home state.

The former governor of Indiana and his wife, wearing a Manning No. 18 jersey, left Lucas Oil Stadium after the national anthem, following instructions from Drumpf after a number of San Francisco 49ers players, as they usually do, took a knee during the anthem.

“I asked @VP Pence to leave stadium if any players kneeled,” Drumpf posted on Twitter. “I am proud of him and @SecondLady Karen.”

The first rule of blatant political stunts is not to let on that they are blatant political stunts.

Pence was acting not out of spontaneous patriotism but out of blind loyalty to a president who reduces everyone around him to a sleazy character on a reality TV show.

I feel this is important information about what is happening in the Republican Administration lead by Drumpf and what we need to be aware of.

Keith Olbermann, #127 …. “🐧 How the Pittsburgh Penguins Became Drumpf’s Political Pawns …. 🐧 …. Simple: Decline Invite …. “!!

~~September 28, 2017~~ 

PLATO DE SEGUNDA MESA

Pittsburgh Penguins Just Became Second Fiddle to Drumpf

There’s a saying in Spanish … ‘plato de segunda mesa‘.

I’ve been looking for an accurate translation for it and ‘second fiddle‘ came  up. Another meaning ‘to be second-best‘.

I guess when the one chosen or entitled declines, then the one who accepts becomes the ‘second fiddle’.

~PLAY SECOND FIDDLE~

– to be less important or in a weaker position than someone else –

~Trump will welcome Pittsburgh Penguins to White House~

As Drumpf faced backlash for his harsh criticism of athletes who have kneeled in protest for the national anthem, the Pittsburgh Penguins confirmed on Sunday they will visit the White House to celebrate their Stanley Cup victory.  In a statement, the Penguins said they “respect the institution of the Office of the President, and the long tradition of championship teams visiting the White House”.

The statement added:

“Any agreement or disagreement with a president’s politics, policies or agenda can be expressed in other ways. However, we very much respect the rights of other individuals and groups to express themselves as they see fit.”

TAKE A KNEE 

PROTESTING POLICE BRUTALITY ON AFRICAN AMERICAN CITIZENS

How can we forget this amazing past weekend?

It all started Friday at a ‘campaign rally in Alabama.

The ‘man’ is absurd, juvenile, vile, selfish, egotistical, ignorant, bombastic and basically intolerable.

A weekend to remember.

Another new low … of which there should be plenty since this ‘man’ has no bottom!

TERENCE CRUTCHER … ANOTHER CASUALTY

DISCLAIMER … GRAPHIC IMAGES

How many more?

The count is lost.

Read somewhere that since Kaepernick started his protest, 13 more African Americans had been shot dead.

I guess we have to add another three to that count.

This includes Terence Crutcher!

Stop this insane madness!!

Terence Crutcher Walked to Police for Help

They Shot Him Dead

~GOLDIE TAYLOR~

“That big bad dude was a father, that big bad dude was a son, that big bad dude was enrolled at Tulsa Community College just wanting to make us all proud, that big bad dude loved God, that big bad dude was in church singing with all of his flaws every week.”

That big bad dude was 40-year-old Terence Crutcher – a man who raised his hands high above his head in submission before he was shot to death Friday by police in Oklahoma – and those are the words of his twin sister Tiffany, who is now left to plan his funeral service.

In all, a total of four officers and a helicopter responded to reports of an abandoned vehicle blocking the road. One of them pointed a Taser at Crutcher, but it was Tulsa police officer Betty Shelby, the first to arrive on the scene, who fired the single shot.

She pulled the trigger mere seconds after a second squad car arrived, killing the father of four.

For her part, Shelby claimed the victim was reaching into a passenger-side window of her car and that she, an armed officer of the law surrounded by three others and backed up by a police chopper, felt threatened.
