Asked about his "Three Percenters" tattoo, new #Patriots draftee/K Justin Rohrwasser said he got that tattoo as a teen & thought it was a military support symbol. "Turned into something I would never want to represent. Should have done way more research on it." Will cover it.
Does anyone here think that Robert Kraft, who is Jewish, would be okay having a white supremacist neo-Nazi on the team? Simple yes or no will suffice.
We are nobody to say otherwise, and Kraft, a Jew, may actually enjoy owning a white supremacist neo-nazi and forcing him to run up the Hills.I agree totally. I'm using it as an example of *EVEN IF HE WAS* one of those, and Kraft, a Jew, was cool with the guy being on the team and representing him, his family, and his brand, who are we to say otherwise?
Note that he did NOT say that he will remove his tats.
That could be easy. I just read the III% group has about 10,000 members, so he can add 0.00 before the "III" to represent the 0.003% of Americans the group actually represents.Did he say he will cover them? If so, covering them doesn’t mean he will just wear clothes over them. Typically a person that is a fan of tattoos will never go through the removal process but instead choose to tattoo over them which is commonly referred to as ‘covering’.
But my point is that there isn't that much in the 16 pages of this thread crushing the kid for the tattoo. It's people talking about Kaepernick and such and arguing whether the 3%ers are racist not.
I agree Brady took heat from the left wing but it wasn't even close to what Kaepernick got, and continues to get, from the right. Kaepernick isn't even in the league anymore and people are still melting about him in this thread. When was the last time you saw someone talk about Brady's hat on this board? How often does it come up now, three times a year?
The answer is "no". I would be more sure if Myra were still with us. However, it is NOT at all clear that the Krafts have reviewed the background of this player.
Are you making a generalization about an entire segment of people? I thought that wasn't allowed. I assumed you were more enlightened than that. Who knew you possessed such ignorance and prejudice?
Right. And if they do review it and want no part of him, then the critics here will be happy and the guy will be gone. And if they do review it and are fine with him, then the critics need to shut up because if Kraft, a Jewish owner of the team, is fine with him, then who are we - who haven't actually done the research and interviewed the guy and such - to b***h about it?
lmao this thread is like 100 knuckle draggers getting trolled by illegalcontact, it owns
There are obviously correlations between poverty, race, and crime. There's also a correlation between conviction rates and wealth level. You don't see rich white kids in court for smoking pot, or even arrested, at the same rate as poor black kids. Comparing Black and White Drug Offenders: Implications for Racial Disparities in Criminal Justice and Reentry Policy and ProgrammingAre you claiming all groups commit the same crimes at the same rate? The only difference is who the police "choose to arrest" and who the courts "choose to convict"? That seems like a blatantly ignorant and uninformed position.

This reads like a version of the Chewbacca defense...lol diarrhea of the mouth should be treated.Disparities do not tell you anything without first looking at behavior. Looking at disparities without first examining the actual behavior is pointless. If you want to get into the various causes of the behavior, I'm more than willing to have that discussion. However, you first have to acknowledge disparities in actual behavior do exist.
If I told you drownings increase with the sale of ice cream, would you assume ice cream causes drownings. You're part of a very large group that allows your own biases to blind you from obvious truths and realities. You are part of the problem. Hold people accountable for their behavior, and stop blaming the invisible boogieman.
Racism exists, and it always will. People judging and treating people poorly for a countless number of reasons has always taken place, and it will be taking place well after you and I are gone. People will hate others because they are black, because they are white, fat, skinny, smart, dumb, rich, poor, smelly, pleasant smelling, tall, short, wear glasses, don't wear glasses, etc., and they always will. Get over it.
