Look up the term confirmation bias.

What's unbelievable is you thinking such an apples to oranges comparison is anything but laughable.

There's a reason that the pyramid on the back of the $1 bill is unfinished. America would never be finished. Our definition of rights and equality was going to change. It doesn't mean it was systemic. Women didn't have rights because throughout history they never did. It's the way the world...

The only leap is the circular logic in your last statement.

You said earlier you didn't care if someone threw the flag on the floor. So you do disagree with someone that doesn't think that it ok. And you called the person who thinks its wrong a snow flake for not liking it. How are you not calling names to someone you disagree with?

And you are calling someone names because you disagree with their opinion. How are you different?

But when someone says that they should not throw the flag on the ground you call them a snowflake. You're being hypocritical for defending the right of the person you agree with and insulting the side you disagree with. If you're going to defend someone's right to throw the flag on the ground...

You are equating someone asking if we can respect a symbol of the country we are all supposed to love and you equate that with passing a law in a communist country. Big difference there. You claim to love the fact that people can do what they want with the floor, but you are ok with someone...

Even among veterans there are disagreements on this issue.

"...of decency." You are rationalizing to arrive at the conclusion you want to arrive at. Decency was something our parents instilled in us. Yes, America is great and you have the right to throw the flag on the floor and despite not agreeing with you, I'll defend your right to do it Having...

No one said anything about laws outlawing anything. Just to have some decency. Especially when you're representing the country. The Straw Man fallacies don't help your case.

Then don't make it about politics. Rapinoe had the right to make a political remark. However, when you take a political stand, you have to be prepared to accept criticism from those that disagree with you. You'll turn a blind eye to the side you agree with, while attacking the side you...

Jabbar and Ali were talking about real issues such as racial injustice. That's very different than whining because you didn't get your way in the last election.

Well, I didn't vote for Obama. Having said that, a free, independent press is essential to the preservation of a democracy.

Probably the best argument too. We can't dominate soccer because our best athletes play football, basketball while the rest of the world grows up playing soccer.

We can play *** for tat all you want. Remember when the press was fair? You might want to get used to it, because there are going to be more Trumps down the line and quite possibly worse.

Don't be obtuse. You're critical of Empirical for criticizing Rapinoe's comments about going to the White House, but dismiss Rapinoe's similar behavior.

Pay scale is determined by FIFA. The US men's team gets the benefit of playing in the men's field of the most popular sport in the world. There isn't as much fanfare for women's soccer as there is for men.

You call him triggered, but you don't call Rapinoe triggered. Seems a bit hypocritical.
