I’ve got nothing to add to that . You could indeed have posted it on the official Lewis Hamilton is a cunt thread but sadly he’s just adding to the problem which not only already exists but is getting worse by the day .
Just another thing that could be added to the list of reasons why the knee taking gets booed .
It ain’t racist . It’s an objection to being branded racist .
Why can’t people see this ?
I hate the knee taking rubbish - it is political and BLM should be wiped off the face of the earth, but the thing that really winds me up is being branded racist if you think the knee taking is a load of old cunt.
Full stadia of fans when they return will see this pathetic gimmick disappear for good. Hopefully there will be an alternative way to get the anti-racist message across because it certainly does still need addressing.
I agree with you about the knee taking crap. I don't give a flying fuck that George Floyd is no longer breathing good air, but, and this imo is the important bit, I do give a fuck that he was illegally killed and NOT, as a result, tried in court, convicted and sentenced for his crimes.
It has fuck all to do that he was black and everything to do that he was engaged in criminal activity which put him in that situation in the first place. Unfortunately the police fucked up big time.
But do you really think we have a racist problem in this country. Or for that matter in the US ? After all they elected a black president. And half of our national football team are black. Don't you think that , for some people, being black is just an excuse for the fact they are useless wasters ? Just as some would claim they are discriminated against because they're gay. It's much easier to blame someone else than front up to your own failings.
People who have a gambling problem blame the gambling industry, drug addicts blame the system that can't keep drugs off the street, but no one forces them to have a punt or use drugs do they.? We all have a choice. My vice is probably that I drink too much. Perhaps I should sue the brewing industry and claim that I'm a fucking victim. But if one day I overdo it and I fall off my perch as a consequence is it really any other fuckers fault ? Of course it isn't, BLM ? Just another fucking excuse for people's failings I'm afraid.
Used to be some bloke on this forum called Jimmy who apparently had a gambling issue. Once had a right pop at someone on the forum who happened to mention a bet about something or other and blamed every bookie in the world for his problems. Sums it up.
