As for Lee (another topic you supposedly were "done with"), I told you where to look, and you rebutted with "...but Ken Burms..." Pitiful.

Yeah....
"Raising my fist at the Olympics cost me friends and my marriage".
That's a big price to pay, perhaps not for you.

As far as LEE goes...Bullshit! you didn't cite a source you mentioned it may have been in a Time Life coffee book or some such nonsense....
If you did cite a source, please cite it again.......

Speaking of research....did you ever find a cite for the Robert E Lee order to shoot all Union officers who commanded Black Union Troops on site?

Here's some pitiful research...just for you Magoo.

Raised-fist Olympians punished in 1968 will be received at White House

The image of Smith and Carlos, gold and bronze medalists in the 200-meter track event in Mexico City, thrusting their black-gloved fists into the air, has become an enduring symbol of the fight for racial equality.

Their example has surfaced repeatedly in past weeks as an inspiration to African-American National Football League and college players protesting racial injustice after the fatal shootings of several black men by police.

Smith and Carlos paid a high price for their protest, not only with the Olympic Committee but also in the court of public opinion.

“It was against the charter of the Olympic Committee to make a political statement at the victory podium,” Carlos said in a phone interview. “But we felt it was the only place we could make the statement at that time.”

Standing in black socks, the two Americans bowed their heads and pushed their fists into the air as the U.S. anthem played, shocking the world and many Americans reeling from a turbulent year in the fight for civil rights. They were suspended from the U.S. Olympic team and sent back to the United States.

It was widely interpreted as a black power salute but the athletes later described it as a “human rights salute.”

Carlos said he did not expect or want an explicit apology from the Olympic Committee for sending him and Smith home, because their actions were in clear violation of policy. He said, however, that over time and as their raised-fist salute has become a precedent of sorts, U.S. Olympic officials have a better understanding of the reasons behind their protest.

“Time has gone by to the point where they had to take a look at themselves and say, ‘These guys weren’t bad guys,'” Carlos said. “‘They were courageous enough to make a statement for what they believed in.'”

I'm done with this Magoo...as I said Smith and Carlos were willing to pay the price for their actions without sniveling or complaint...
Have a nice day.

He took a knee instead of stood. I love all the manufactured outrage over this peaceful protest by Kap, kids take knees when kids are injured all the time it's a sign of respect.

You have twisted logic.
And bad grammar.... " stood " .." Knees " ???

Kids take a knee to show possibly respect, but to ensure the
play is halted.

There is absolutely NO correlation between kids taking a knee
to halt play and dumbass Colin Kaepernick displaying his
ignorance and disrespect for the very Country/flag that gives him the
freedom to play a highly monetized Professional sport.

I enjoy debunking your weak attempts at alternative reality to much. It is you that should research your links and info before posting them . . . I'm batting about .750 off you, and you I? .000

How is that tough talk ?

You asked me a question and I responded with an answer.

You were not just wondering, you see I've dealt with your kind multiple times.
We would not be where you are if you were not the pussy you are.....
You have done the same with LE and probably the same pattern on other forums
under different monikers....
