Well the knuckledraggers asked for communication from the FA but looks from the comments they're still falling back on their political Marxism fantasy beliefs

Idiotic. On what basis would you ban them? Are you accusing them of being racist or something like that? Absolutely ridiculous

You’re a racist **** if you boo players taking a knee. Despite all the bullsh*t you posted, it’s that simple.

Gullible people again following the crowd and whatever’s “hip”. 
 
Blacklivesmatter movement is pure bullsh*t, simple as that. Thought the first match or two doing it was very powerful - after that, it should’ve been binned.

Pleanty of blacks also have an issue with players taking the knee. Are they racist too LOL - or is it only if you boo?

Very quick to throw out labels on people.

Funny how it's the people that pretend to be the most open and liberal are actually the least tolerant of others opinions, and the quickest to shout them down.

😂😂

Read what you want into my posts, but I’ll argue any point on any issue you want.

But going back to this. I presume it’s not racist to disagree with the blacklivesmatter movement and players taking the knee? It couldn’t be racist if pleanty of blacks have an issue with it?

But it’s racist to voice this opinion? (Which again, I said I wouldn’t boo - though have no issues with people that do want to boo it)

Surely the lads booing an anti racist campaign are “shouting the loudest”

As it is clearly out there in media that booing players taking the knee is perceived as being against the anti-racism symbolism that is taking the knee, then yes I would consider that the action to boo the players is a form of racism in itself, and the booing people know exactly what they're up to. 

You can have an opinion that it doesn't belong in the game but the fact that it is currently being performed should be respected and in my opinion, if proper communication was out there that booing wouldn't be tolerated and would be considered hateful or racist behaviour then I think also some punishment in the form of a ban could be one drastic route to go. Not there yet but if it picked up pace and it went in that direction then maybe as a way to stop the disrespect towards the players show of solidarity

Could we not come out with our own gesture? The French won't do it because they believe it's American.

Well there it is everyone, you can prove you're not racist and all it will cost you is a few seconds of your dignity on your hands and knees.

If you dont feel there's something sinister in being compelled to kneel down and conform to a message that has been lost long ago well then you are welcome to your obedience.

Fully agree with you. Next you'll have people booing the minute silences because they feel it's their right and because they don't like them! I think taking the knee should be long gone to be honest. It was effective at the start but has lost a lot of meaning. Booing it though imo is a clear act of disrespect towards black people, if not, open racism
