  1. That's appalling you've received racial abuse. And if I'd witnessed it I'd certainly have supported you in standing against it.
  2. I haven't booed people taking a knee. But I also won't state that people who do are automatically racist. Will some of them be? Possibly. Theres virtually zero racist abuse of players at the Riverside. If all that booed were racist you'd hear it and the reality is u don't. I think any acts of racism should be dealt with as the criminal offence that they are. It's association with Marxism is an interesting debate. Some who boo will be considering that, others won't be. Mine is specific culturally. There were other gestures that wouldn't have been as divisive. Standing proudly togeth
  3. I don't like it and I'm not racist. I have mix raced children. They also consider it divisive. How about the likes of Taylor who have said he won't kneel. Is he racist too? Disagreement doesn't mean racist.
  4. What if they too have genuine points? It's not like they can debate it. If there was booing of the knee and racism at the match I'd agree. The fact is there isn't. Or very isolated incidents of racism that should be dealt with legally. It's clearly a divisive gesture.
  5. Of course it was my reasoning for objecting and why I never will agree with it. There's also a great deal of negativity to people who don't agree with it. Automatically called racist and such without even a conversation about their rationale.
  6. That's exactly right. I don't want to see anyone kneel. I don't see it as an act of inclusivity. I don't want anyone or any race to be submissive. You stand against tyranny not kneel before it. Im much more interested in actual policies ensuring theres equality of opportunity. Not this.
  7. You used to Nazi salute buses? Excellent. Perhaps u could raise your hand without a straight arm? Just a suggestion.
  8. I'm a Romani. The nazis made the roma kneel before shooting us as part of a genocide. It is not a statement of inclusivity. Its a sign of being submissive.
