NFL To Transform Fields, Player Helmets Into Black Lives Matter Billboards

The NFL will display the slogans “End Racism” and “It Takes All of Us” in all teams’ end zones during their opening games this season. Despite previous rules against decorations on helmets, the league will also now allow players to display the names or initials of “victims of racism.”

“The NFL informed clubs today of plans to amplify its social justice initiatives, including helmet decals and signage in end zones for kickoff games and club home openers,” tweeted NFL reporter Tom Pelissero.

The announcement comes as the NFL continues to promote itself as a platform for “social justice initiatives” such as playing “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” a spiritual sometimes called the black national anthem, at every first game of the season. The league also continues to promote its “Inspire Change” campaign designed to “support programs and initiatives that reduce barriers to opportunity” in “education and economic advancement, police and community relations, and criminal justice reform.”

“As we continue to amplify and elevate the NFL’s ongoing and long-term commitment to social justice, we will be incorporating several prominent elements on the field, into all broadcasts and across league and club platforms to begin the NFL season and beyond,” read the memo. “In developing these concepts, we have worked directly with players and received input from the NFLPA.”

Commissioner Roger Goodell previously expressed his desire for the NFL to “improve and go forward for a better and more united NFL family” in...

Girls With Guns

Spent my days with a woman unkind

Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine

Made up my mind to make a new start

Leaving California with an aching in my heart

Someone told me there's a girl out there

With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair

Joe Biden's Logic Is Undeniable...

My Logic Is Undeniable

How Logical Are You?

I Didn't "SEE" Any Protesters...

Rioters Are Seditionists, Not Protesters

The violence perpetrated in the streets of cities across America continues because state and local elected officials (all Democrats) refuse to do what is necessary to stop it. These acts no longer fit the definition of protest. Rather, sedition defines them: “incitement of discontent or rebellion against a government.”

President Donald Trump has ordered agents from the Department of Homeland Security to quell the disturbances in Portland, Oregon, and Chicago, which appear to be coordinated, and stop them from spreading to other cities.

On Wednesday, the White House announced the deployment of what it terms “federal assets,” which Attorney General William Barr defined as “street agents and investigators,” to targeted cities experiencing the most violence.

Some contend the president is exceeding his constitutional authority and what’s known as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which “prohibits the use of U.S. military forces to perform the tasks of civilian law enforcement such as arrest, apprehension, interrogation, and detention unless explicitly authorized by Congress.”

It may be splitting hairs to say DHS forces are not the military, but the larger question is this: Should the president allow federal property to be destroyed and people shot, given the refusal of some mayors and governors to intervene? Or, for the sake of preserving “domestic tranquility,” saving human life and protecting public and private property take the action he has taken?

Perhaps the media should ask people whose jobs have been disrupted, their businesses destroyed, their work suspended—or ended—if they are OK with allowing the rioting to continue.

Pundits and activists can pontificate all they want from the safety of their basements and the security of uninterrupted paychecks, but what about the victims? Have they no right to be safe and secure?

A federal law known as 18 U.S. Code 2385 and titled “Advocating overthrow of Government” says this:
