It's crazy how much you have to simplify and show analogy's for ignorant people, and most of them still won't have it

It's absolutely mad when you think about it!

Actually, when the players took the knee, the fans were still singing...then they all realised the players were in their knees, and then outburst of applause reverberated around the ground. The camera was on Kane and I swear he did a nod with his head in agreement.
Brilliant stuff!

That would be a nice little moment if that's the case morespurs

I heard a good analogy of Black Lives Matter for those that says things like 'white lives matter too' or 'all lives matter'.
Firemen care about every house, but the one they are going to take action on is the one that is on fire.

That's brilliant, surely even Millwall simpletons should understand this.

Well let’s see what happens tonight. Millwall play QPR and the players of both teams will stand together with the kick it out banner so completely non political.
If they boo at that then I will not defend them but if they clap or cheer then that tells me that the booing wasn’t racial just that they can’t stand the politics.
We shall see but I will be disappointed if they boo tonight.

It is nothing to do with politics. That is just a smokescreen the racists are hiding behind. They need calling out. They wouldn`t have a clue in reality what BLM stands for. The one`s booing were racists however it is dressed up.
They will be to cowardly to do it tonight in all probability, but it won`t mean the problem is solved. They will just wait until their are bigger crowds, and they think they won`t be noticed when they choose to boo again.

In some peoples eyes it’s very political.
If millwall fans think it is not right then trust me they will definitely boo! They love the attention and being on sky tonight they would be well up for making as much noise as possible, however now they have changed to the kick it out campaign instead of BLM than it will be interesting how they react.
