I’m not a football fan. There is a reason the NFL is also known as the National Felon League.
New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees on the other hand is a shining example of the goodness of some men.
I first learned about him after Hurricane Katrina because of the charity work he did to help rebuild New Orleans.
He is one of the most philanthropic players in the NFL. He created the Brees Dream Foundation for cancer research. He helped New Orleans after the BP oil spill and donated $5 million of his own money to help New Orleans through the Coronavirus.
But he gave an interview and said he respects the American flag, so fuck that guy, right?

This is about power and about destruction.
These people just want to tear down and destroy because and bend others to their will. That’s it.
There I’d no reason to hate a man like Brees but they do.
There is nothing you can do to appease the mob. They just want to destroy you.
It is really feeling like there is a part of the American society that believes that the only way forward is to destroy all that is America.
The American Flag has been and is the symbol of hope for millions of people around the world. Yet we have a part of America screaming that it means “racism” and “oppression”.
We have people that are so wealthy as to bugger belief, yet they say that there is systemic “unfairness” in the country, and the only way to fix it is to destroy America and replace it with something else.
We have people screaming that a group of people, white, black, men and women standing quietly with arms crossed is a “threat” to our legislators and government, yet rioters destroying government buildings are just expressing righteous outrage.
I love my country. It feels like those that hate it are winning.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough:

The Kindergarden of Eden by Evan Sayat.
Your typical leftist, like your typical toddler, has a two aspects/black or white view of the world. Either you are with us 100% marching lockstep and agreeing totally with everything we say, or your are our enemy. There is no middle ground.
The guys that were having a protest party, and get bricks thrown through their windows… Yeah. They are the enemy of the mob because they were not out marching with the mob. Enemy. Not sympathetic person that cannot participate, enemy. There is no in between.
Same with political systems, economic systems, etc… Either it is perfect, or it needs to be destroyed. There is no option to “fix it.” Perfect, or start over from scratch.
And, Drew Brees is getting that very treatment. The mob was probably good with receiving his money, but as soon as he said he respected the Country and the Flag, they lost it. In their minds, it is impossible for someone to support the country when it has flaws. Therefore, Drew Brees is their enemy now.
