Hopefully this doesn't ruin the narrative too much with Kap showing some respect during the anthem to the military and it's veterans.

Wasn't this the dude complaining the other day about racial profiling because someone told him that they wouldn't serve him after his taking a knee?

Scottsdale police said officers went to Maxwell's home Saturday night after getting a call about a person with a gun. Maxwell was booked on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and disorderly conduct.

Waiter: MLB catcher Bruce Maxwell made up story about service refusal over anthem protest

Oakland A’s catcher Bruce Maxwell, 26, claimed this week that a waiter in his Alabama hometown of Huntsville refused him service after identifying him as the MLB player who took the knee during “The Star Spangled Banner” last month — only the waiter has a very different version of events and he told Fox News that was far from what went down.

“He is outright lying. This is really upsetting as he was given full service, I didn’t even know who Bruce Maxwell was,” Matt Henry, a 42-year-old waiter at Keegan’s Public House, told Fox News. “This all started because I carded his friend who wanted to order a beer.”

Maxwell may get kicked off the team but not for kneeling, for being a dangerous asshole.

I just cannot for the life of me understand why these black players want to discuss the cops

These n—-rs are like ISIS, they have no value. They should line them all up and mow ’em down. I’d like to be on the firing squad, I could do it. I used to think about if I could shoot someone or not, I could do it, I’m tired of it.

They don't want to discuss the cops.  They want to kneel in "look at me" symbolism as a lazy way to pretend they are doing something instead of actually doing something AND at the same time they get to whine that they are victims when people don't like it.

Symbolism over substance and indignity is the new dignity.

It's so 2017 baby.
